About the role
- We are seeking a North America-based Chief of Staff/COO to work directly with our CEO and CFO to drive Noble’s strategic priorities forward.
- In this role, you will increase the speed and velocity at which Noble scales.
- This is a high-impact role for someone who understands the crypto landscape deeply and can operate with autonomy and speed.
- Own and facilitate quarterly L-10 planning, ensuring alignment across the organization.
- Translate high-level objectives into operational plans, check-ins, and executive frameworks, ensuring action plans and feedback loops.
- Identify roadblocks early, propose solutions without needing perfect information, and keep the org moving forward on what matters most.
- Track and monitor goals/roadmaps to ensure alignment with Noble’s mission and strategy.
- Collaborate with Product to enhance existing product offerings (eg. USDN, vault mechanics) and develop new offerings that meet market demands, while ensuring alignment with business goals.
- Maintain deep knowledge of the modular blockchain ecosystem, monitoring launches, integrations, token models, and community sentiment.
- Serve as the main point of contact between the leadership team and external stakeholders (investors, advisors, ecosystem partners).
- Own meeting prep, follow-ups, and decision-making support.
- Streamline leadership workflows and optimize executive decision-making processes.
- Represent the Leadership Team in meetings, negotiations, or external engagements where strategic support is needed.
- Act as the connection between Product, Engineering, Ops, BD, and Marketing, ensuring accountability without micromanaging.
- Partner with Ops to define, monitor, and report on team-level KPIs.
- Align leadership around conflicting priorities, clarify decision ownership, and drive a path to resolution.
- Take full ownership of high priority projects that don’t sit cleanly within one department.
- Jump into ambiguous areas (e.g. AppLayer integrations, USDN integrations, fundraises, regional expansions) and build from 0 → 1.
- Ensure every special project has a clear timeline, owner, and internal accountability.
- Operate as a trusted partner to the leadership team on sensitive or confidential initiatives (e.g. investment rounds, corporate structuring, new product lines)
