Chief of Staff for Engineering acting as operating partner to engineering leadership. Owns the leadership operating cadence, monthly and quarterly business reviews, org planning, and cross-org execution follow-through. Work involves Jira data hygiene and automating status reporting with tools such as Jira, Notion, GitHub, and Slack.
Cyberhaven is looking for a Chief of Staff for Engineering to collaborate and perform as an operating partner and force multiplier for engineering leadership, driving operating cadence, cross-organizational execution, and data-driven decision making across the entire engineering org. This role is accountable for turning strategic priorities into clear execution plans, and for giving leadership the visibility, metrics, and follow-through they need to run engineering like a well-oiled machine.
This is a hybrid role that blends program management, project management, and executive operations: the person in this role will sit close to engineering leadership, represent their priorities across the org, and be the connective tissue between strategy and day-to-day execution. Influence and impact come from judgment, trust, and cross-functional credibility rather than direct authority.
This role also serves as the primary architect of engineering leadership's monthly and quarterly business reviews, all-hands content, org planning, and leadership offsites providing decision support, surfacing risk, and driving follow-through on the company's highest-priority engineering initiatives.
This role goes well beyond traditional chief of staff work. It requires strong executive presence to represent leadership credibly in front of the org and external stakeholders, deep comfort with data and metrics to turn fragmented signals into clear decision support, and an AI-forward mindset to automate the reporting and operating mechanisms that let Cyberhaven scale how it plans, tracks, communicates, and reviews its work.
Joining Cyberhaven means joining the team building Data Security for the Agentic Enterprise. Traditional tools fall short. Cyberhaven traces the full lifecycle of your data, adapting protection to changing context, so protection moves with the way people actually work, not against it. AI Changed Work. We Protect It.
Backed by $250M from leading investors like Khosla and Redpoint, our team includes leaders who built industry-defining technologies at CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Meta, Google, and more. This role lets you shape the future of data security, working alongside people driven to protect workflows, not just data, for customers who cannot afford to slow down to stay safe.
