Head of Business Operations
Pubblicato il 12-10-2026 - Platform Engineering in Milano
Take over founder-led operations and build the systems that help us grow.
You might be a consultant who moved into a startup, a founder’s associate already running important parts of a business, or an operator who has started building software and automations yourself.
You enjoy understanding how a business works, finding what slows it down, and making it work better. You can turn an unclear problem into a practical plan, bring people with you, and build the first solution.
We are looking for someone ready to take that ability further: own our operations function, lead a small team, and join the company’s leadership team.
About Us
Platform Engineering Masters is the company behind platformengineering.org and PlatformCon. We bring together engineers, technology leaders and vendors through our community, conferences, education and Weave Intelligence.
As the business grows, the systems behind it need to grow too: how we deliver for customers, run events, produce content, understand performance and share information across teams.
Our co-founder,
Christoph currently leads operations. You will work closely with him during the handover, then take responsibility for running and developing the function independently. You will report to Luca, our Managing Director.
The challenge
We have a working business, an existing operations team and plenty already being built. We also have manual handovers, disconnected information and processes that depend too much on particular people.
Your job is to decide what needs attention, understand the business problem behind each request, and lead the work through to a solution people actually use.
Some of the questions you will tackle:
- How do we turn a customer commitment into a reliable delivery process across sales, content and events?
- How do we give teams trustworthy information about what is working and where to focus?
- How do we make recurring work, such as publishing a webinar or delivering a sponsored asset, easy to run
