About Us

Senseye is a NeuroTechnology Company in Austin, TX on the cusp of revolutionizing Mental Health. Over the past 6 years we have invested millions of dollars in R&D to build our platform allowing us to measure cognitive activity via the eye through mobile phones. Through multiple iterations and use cases we are now focused on building the world's first Objective Mental Health Diagnostics on top of our core technology. Our first diagnostic is for PTSD and is entering clinical trials now, followed soon by additional indications for Anxiety and Depression. As the world struggles with a mental health crisis, it is not hyperbolic to suggest that an objective diagnostic platform, that gives clinicians a safe and objective accurate approach to identifying and monitoring mental health disease, will redefine how mental health services are provided and will enable access to treatment for hundreds of millions of sufferers. The Senseye platform has the potential to be the technology that drives this change.

Role Description

The Chief of Staff role at Senseye is an intensive, growth position for someone who wants a front-row seat to building a company that matters.

This role reports directly to the CEO, with a dotted line to the SVP, Strategy & Operations. You will operate across both agendas, supporting the CEO's day-to-day and long-horizon priorities while executing on the strategic and operational initiatives owned by the SVP. You will be the connective tissue that keeps both moving.

You will be deeply embedded in how decisions get made, how priorities get resourced, and how the company presents itself to investors, partners, and the world. This is a high-trust, high-expectation role with a defined two-year arc. People who do it well leave with a dramatically expanded operating range.

Location

This is a fully on-site role based in Austin, TX. Senseye does not offer hybrid or remote arrangements for this position. We believe proximity matters for the kind of deep collaboration this role demands.

Responsibilities

Types of work you'll regularly own:

• Acting as a force multiplier across the CEO and SVP, Strategy & Operations — anticipating what's needed, owning what's stuck, and creating leverage so both leaders can spend their time on the highest-value work only they can do.

Leverage for the CEO

• Driving cross-functional priorities from initiation to completion, across both the CEO and SVP, Strategy & Operations portfolios
• Synthesizing inputs across the company — reading widely across meetings, Slack, docs, and customer/partner conversations, and surfacing the signal that needs to reach leadership
• Owning the packaging and coordination of strategic work product — turning rough leadership thinking into clear documents, decisions, and next steps
• Driving decision-making forward — building lightweight decision memos, mapping options and tradeoffs, and chasing the inputs needed to unblock leadership choices
• Attending executive and leadership team meetings — synthesizing decisions, capturing follow-ups, and making sure nothing falls through
• This role will require significant amounts of travel, often last minute, including some travel in small, general aviation aircraft

Strategic execution

• Leading special projects end-to-end, from scoping to handoff, with minimal direction
• Running quarter start and close-out activities, including supporting on company-wide goal development
• Supporting on investor-facing deliverables, including kicking off and finalizing processes around investor newsletters and board materials, with direction from leadership
• Building, editing, and refining materials for strategic partners

Communications and operating rhythms

• Running daily and weekly operating rhythms with the CEO to prioritize, unblock, and stay ahead of what's coming
• Stewarding the leadership operating rhythm — auditing recurring meetings, agendas, and reporting cadences for signal-to-noise; killing or reshaping what's not earning its place
• Drafting internal and external communications on behalf of the CEO — all-hands talking points, leadership updates, customer/partner correspondence, and follow-ups from external meetings
• Organizing executive offsites, all-hands, and company-wide moments
• Helping translate Senseye's values into how the company actually operates — through rituals, recognition, and team norms

You will be expected to operate with judgment, discretion, and urgency — and to make the people above and around you meaningfully more effective.

• 3–5 years of experience in consulting, startups, venture, biotech, healthcare, or high-growth environments
• Demonstrated ability to drive complex, cross-functional work forward in ambiguous conditions
• Outstanding written and verbal communication — you can write a board memo and a CEO email in the same afternoon, and both are excellent
• Strong analytical thinking and the ability to structure a problem before diving into it
• High emotional intelligence — you read rooms well, manage up effectively, and know when to push and when to step back
• Experience working directly with senior leadership and external stakeholders, including investors or board members
• Comfort operating across multiple agendas without losing track of either
• Willingness to work occasional late nights and weekends when the moment calls for it
• A genuine desire to commit fully to a two-year, career-defining experience

Bonus: experience in biotech, health tech, regulated environments, digital therapeutics, or venture-backed startups. Familiarity with clinical trial environments or FDA-regulated product development is a meaningful plus.

• Flexible paid time off (vacation, sick leave, and public holidays)
• Flexible schedules
• Company health care plan

• Short and long term disability insurance
• Life insurance policy
• 401k
