And the enablement layer — the thing that makes the operating model actually run without RISE in the room — doesn't yet exist. Own and steward the R&D Operating Blueprint — keep it current as the organization evolves, run periodic health checks, and make redesign calls when something isn't working Lead operating rhythm work: forum design, cadence changes, redesigns, and post-mortems — the ongoing drumbeat of keeping the operating model healthy Serve as the internal expert on AI-native process design — the go-to voice for "how do we build this as a system, not a document" What you should have: Deep experience in program management, organizational design, or operating model work — you think in systems, not projects A genuine point of view on how AI changes organizational dynamics, not just individual workflows — "decisions are now the bottleneck" should land immediately Demonstrated ability to design and implement operating models, not just document existing ones Experience working across a technical organization without authority — your influence comes from craft and accessibility, not the org chart Comfort making complex systems thinking legible to skeptical, busy audiences A "first-hire" mindset — you build structure where none exists and don't wait for permission to start Location: Upside is not liable for, and will not pay, placement fees for candidates submitted by any party or agency other than its approved recruitment partners.
