Workstream is a mission-driven company building the all-in-one HR, payroll, and hiring platform for managing the hourly workforce. 7 billion hourly workers, making up 80% of the global workforce, but this market has been heavily underserved by technology and deserves better. Workstream has been purpose-built for the hourly workforce from day one so that these businesses and their employees can thrive.

/Hardee's, IHOP, KFC, and Culvers. We are a high growth series B company and quickly expanding our product portfolio to deliver on our vision. We are backed by legendary VCs and industry experts like Founders Fund, BOND, and Coatue.

In addition to our core business, Workstream is home to a small, fast-moving Robotics team focused on advancing the next generation of artificial intelligence and robotics. We partner with a leading AI and robotics company to produce high-quality, large-scale egocentric (first-person) video datasets that help train advanced AI models. Our Robotics team develops scalable data collection and annotation pipelines that enable the efficient creation of high-quality training datasets, helping AI systems better understand human actions, environments, and everyday interactions.

We're also building a new category of connected hardware designed to operate reliably throughout the day in thousands of homes and businesses. By combining cutting-edge data collection, automation, and hardware innovation, this team is helping shape the future of intelligent systems and real-world AI applications. Grow With Us We are looking for a world-class Chief Operating Officer (COO) to serve as the primary strategic and operational partner to our CEO, helping scale Workstream from a high-growth Series B company into a category-defining global enterprise.

In this role, you will oversee and unify the company’s core business operations—bridging the gap between strategy, product, go-to-market (GTM), and corporate functions. You will ensure Workstream scales efficiently while maintaining speed, quality, and a high-performance culture. This is a high-impact executive leadership role for an exceptional operator who thrives on complexity, drives organizational accountability, and translates visionary goals into repeatable, company-wide business performance.

You will work closely with the CEO, Executive Team, Board of Directors, and investors to align global strategy with flawless execution. The ideal candidate is a visionary builder and a disciplined executioner—equally comfortable setting corporate direction, driving executive alignment, and stepping into day-to-day operations to clear roadblocks. Why This Role Is Different This is not a traditional, back-office administrative role.

At Workstream, the COO will act as the company’s chief execution architect —owning the organizational design, cross-functional synergy, and governance needed to transform high-level strategy into market-defining execution. As a vital force multiplier for the CEO, you will focus on scaling not just our market footprint, but the executive leadership team and organizational machine behind it. The ideal candidate is an elite enterprise operator who combines high-velocity startup agility with world-class operational discipline—a leader who can build resilient systems, accelerate corporate growth, and help shape Workstream as the definitive platform powering the global hourly workforce.

Day In The Life Executive Leadership Partnership: Serve as the primary strategic partner to the CEO and executive team, co-designing the company's operating cadence and ensuring total alignment on corporate priorities. Cross-Functional Orchestration: Drive synergy and alignment across traditionally siloed functions—Product, Engineering, GTM, Finance, and People—to accelerate product-to-market velocity and business growth.
