Job description

Are you someone who can turn vision into execution, strategy into systems, and momentum into scale? Do you thrive in high-trust, high-ownership environments and want to help build the operating engine of one of the fastest-scaling AI-powered platforms for elite enterprise tech talent on-demand?

We’re hiring a Chief Operating Officer to lead and scale operations at SkillsCapital — a global tech talent platform powered by AI, automation, and deep domain expertise in enterprise software. You’ll work closely with the founding team to own everything from delivery execution and sub-vendor management to team structure, systems, and operational performance — and help us scale from 20 → 100.

Experience is no bar, but performance is. We’re looking for a high-performing individual with strong exposure to operations, delivery, or vendor management — ideally within enterprise tech talent, consulting, staffing, or enterprise software domains. What matters most is your passion to build, ability to take full ownership, operate with accountability, and consistently deliver results in a fast-paced, high-trust startup environment.

Even if you’re someone with limited experience (including freshers) but have the motivation, clarity, and drive to perform in this role — feel free to apply. We care more about what you can do than how many years you've done it.

About SkillsCapital

SkillsCapital is an AI-powered global platform helping clients hire fully vetted, on-demand tech talent and teams across enterprise technologies like SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft, Oracle, AI / ML, Cloud, and more.

In our first year, we’ve :

  • Achieved strong product-market fit and global client traction
  • Delivered talent across the U.S., U.K., Europe, and the Middle East
  • Built a real platform : AI-Powered Talent Cloud, Vetting Engine, Candidate & Client Portals
  • Bootstrapped our way to profitability — zero external funding
  • Are now on track to cross a $2M+ run rate this quarter, with momentum to scale fast

Our leadership and advisory team include former leaders from IBM, Deloitte, Accenture, Trilogy, PwC, ESW Capital, and alumni of Wharton, IIT Delhi, BITS Pilani, IIIT Hyderabad, and University of Pennsylvania.

What You’ll Own

  • Build and lead all core operations and delivery functions
  • Manage and scale sub-vendor and consultant networks
  • Design and run systems that ensure on-time, high-quality fulfillment of global client requirements
  • Oversee onboarding, compliance, documentation, and support workflows
  • Collaborate closely with founders across sales, sourcing, and tech to ensure end-to-end excellence
  • Track KPIs across delivery, sourcing, and client satisfaction — and build data-led systems for scale
  • Own internal process design, automation, and operational performance as we scale from startup to company
  • ✅ Who Should Apply

  • You have experience in operations, delivery, or vendor management in industries like : IT consulting, Enterprise tech talent delivery, Enterprise software services, Talent solutions or staffing firms
  • You’re highly structured, detail-oriented, and thrive in a fast-paced, delivery-led environment
  • You’re comfortable managing both systems and people — from sourcing partners to consultants and internal workflows
  • You’ve worked with cross-functional teams (sales, delivery, sourcing, or product) and know how to keep execution tight
  • You take full ownership of outcomes, thrive on solving operational bottlenecks, and continuously look to improve systems
  • You’re not just looking for a job — you want to co-build a high-growth, tech-led venture from the inside
  • Bonus : experience in scaling operations or designing delivery processes at an early-stage company is a huge plus
  • Compensation

  • This is a CXO role, and compensation will be structured accordingly
  • You’ll receive equity, with long-term upside tied to scale and success
  • Minimal base salary to begin with, reflecting our early-stage but fast-scaling model
  • Compensation will grow meaningfully based on a) Performance and operational outcomes b) Overall c) business growth and delivery KPIs
  • Strategic milestones achieved during scale-up
  • Top performers can expect excellent overall compensation through our outcome-driven structure
  • ⚠️ This is not the right role for someone seeking a high initial salary without ownership or results
  • To Apply

    Send your resume or LinkedIn to

    Please include :

  • A short note on why this excites you
  • What you’ve built, led, or optimized that makes you a strong fit
