BizOps Lead

Astral

At Astral, our mission is to make the Python ecosystem more productive by building next-generation developer tools - tools that enable developers to ship great software, faster.

As a company, we're best known for our open source tools (uv, Ruff, ty), which are some of the fastest-growing software projects in history . We have created a community of tens of millions of developers around the globe, grounded in trust we've earned by consistently delivering impactful, high-quality tools. We recently announced the private beta release of our first commercial product, pyx, and have spent the last few months partnering closely with some of the world's top software companies prior to our GA.

The role

We're looking for our first dedicated BizOps lead to help scale Astral through its next phase of growth. You'll work closely with the executive team and partner across marketing, talent, sales, operations, and finance to drive critical initiatives forward. This is a highly cross-functional role : you'll be a generalist who gets in the weeds on all the business and operational aspects of a high-growth startup. In this role, you will cover :

• Growth : Lead programs that expand and activate our developer communities through events, collaborations, and partnerships.
• Strategic Finance : Partner with leadership on financial operations, including the operating model, cost optimization, reporting, tax, accounting, and treasury management. Own financial analyses and reporting cadences that inform company decisions, and negotiate major cloud contracts.
• RevOps : Own process design and reporting across the revenue engine, ensuring that operational data ties cleanly to forecasts and company projections.
• Talent : Partner with the team in hiring operations - from application review and interview process effectiveness to onboarding and talent development - ensuring that Astral scales intentionally. Think critically about the shape and structure of the Astral team, and have a point of view on our hiring plan.
• Ad Hoc Initiatives : Own high-priority projects such as SOC2 certification renewal, office space evaluation, and streamlining of internal processes - generally, figuring out an answer to complex business problems.

You'll gain exposure to many areas while developing deep expertise in a few. Joining a fast-growing company early means you'll have unique ownership over your career path and focus areas.

You might be a great fit if you...
