President
AGB Search 4.3
Chief executive officer job in Belmont, CA
The Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU) Board of Trustees and campus community invite nominations and applications for a mission-driven and visionary leader to serve as President. NDNU's next President will bring a balance of strategic vision, operational expertise, and authentic connection to NDNU's Catholic and inclusive mission. This individual will possess a demonstrated ability to lead strategic change and growth while fostering collaboration, transparency, and shared purpose across all NDNU's constituencies.
NDNU is a private, Catholic institution located in Belmont, California, on the San Francisco Peninsula. Founded in 1851 by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, it is the third-oldest college in California and notably the first in the state to grant baccalaureate degrees to women. NDNU's three Schools - Business and Management, Education, and Psychology - offer master's degrees in business, education, and psychology; undergraduate degree completion in business administration and psychology; and teacher credential programs.
With NDNU's organizational transition to focus on graduate, credential, and adult education programs, maintaining a large campus footprint was no longer core to NDNU's educational enterprise. In September of 2025, Notre Dame de Namur University sold approximately 95 acres of its Belmont property to UC Investments, the University of California's investment arm. For NDNU, the transaction provides long-term financial stability and sustainability, allowing the university to preserve its 174‑year legacy while scaling down to a more sustainable footprint that provides the opportunity to reimagine its mission‑driven operations and reconfigure its academic model - focusing more deeply on graduate education, online programs, and community partnerships.
NDNU's next President will have the opportunity to join the university at a pivotal moment in its evolution as the campus community envisions a new future while honoring its history and legacy of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. The selected candidate will have the unique opportunity to rebrand and communicate NDNU's renewal story; further develop career‑aligned, flexible learning options (online, hybrid, graduate, and certificate) that meet workforce and adult learner needs; expand fundraising and donor engagement, including major gifts, alumni giving, and corporate partnerships; and collaboratively define NDNU's educational product and value proposition, clarifying its distinct academic identity in a competitive landscape.
A complete Position Profile, with additional information about Notre Dame de Namur University and the strategic opportunities and qualifications for the next President, may be found above.
To assure full consideration, applications should be received by Thursday, February 5, 2026, and must include the following:
A letter of interest addressing the strategic opportunities and qualifications identified in the position profile;
A curriculum vitae; and
A list of five professional references with email addresses and telephone numbers, including their relationship to the candidate. References will not be contacted without prior authorization from the candidate.
Please direct any nominations, expressions of interest, or questions regarding the application process to *************************** or to the AGB Search team:
Compensation: NDNU offers a competitive salary and benefits package. The salary range is $325,000 to $400,00 annually. Relocation assistance is available.
Notre Dame de Namur University is an equal opportunity employer firmly committed to non‑discrimination in its hiring and other employment practices and personnel policies. In compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, except where a bona fide occupational qualification exists, NDNU will make employment decisions irrespective of the staff member's race, color, religion, religious creed, ancestry, national origin, age (except for minors), sex, marital status, citizenship status, military service status, sexual orientation, medical condition (a cancer‑related or genetic condition), disability and/or any another status protected by law. When necessary, the NDNU will reasonably accommodate individuals with disabilities if they are otherwise qualified to perform all essential functions safely and do it without undue hardship to the NDNU.

Co-Founder, COO - Amoeba AI
Forum Ventures
Chief executive officer job in San Francisco, CA
Amoeba is building what the industry has been missing for more than a decade: a neuro-symbolic AI engine that transforms raw business data into governed, causal, and explainable intelligence. Built on the founder's MIT PhD thesis, Amoeba is the world's first neuro-symbolic BI engine - redefining how enterprises interpret pipeline, revenue signals, and growth levers.
Surface causal patterns in their pipeline,
Analyze GTM efficiency with precision,
Model scenarios, interventions, and experiments, and
Operationalize decisions with confidence and explainability.
We have strong early validation, lighthouse customers, and a technical architecture that is years ahead of the market. As we enter the next stage of commercialization, we are expanding our founding team with a strategic Co-Founder / COO to lead customer development, customer success, operational rigor, and the transformation of Amoeba's insights engine into a repeatable business.
Role Overview
This is a strategic, company-defining role for a former founder or senior operator who understands how to build a category, not just a product.
You will serve as the chief architect of Amoeba's customer experience and operating model, turning a breakthrough neuro-symbolic technology into a reliable, scalable, high-trust enterprise solution.
Your mandate spans three areas:
Strategic Customer Development: Shape what the market truly needs and validate the foundations of category creation.
Customer Success & Value Realization: Ensure every customer experiences measurable, narrative-ready business impact.
Operational Scale: Build the systems, rhythms, processes, and organizational muscle that turn early PMF into a scalable company.
This role is not about “running operations.” It is about building the OS of a new category.
Why This Role Matters
Amoeba is at a pivotal moment:
The technology is differentiated and defensible.
Customers are engaged and seeing value.
The category is nascent but inevitable.
What We're Looking For
A former founder or senior operator who has built or scaled from early PMF to $10M+ ARR.
A track record in customer development, customer success, and complex technical sales.
Deep understanding of GTM strategy, revenue operations, or business intelligence.
A builder who leads with empathy, transparency, and embraces intellectual curiosity and growth.
Compensation & Ownership
Co-founder-level equity (significant and long-term)
Competitive salary for an early-stage leadership role
Full ownership over Customer Development, Success, and Operations
Meaningful influence over strategy, product, narrative, and culture
Amoeba recruits, employs, trains, compensates, and promotes regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, disability, age, veteran status, and other protected statuses as required by applicable law. Amoeba's dedication to promoting diversity, multiculturalism, equity, and inclusion is more than a commitment-it is the foundation of what we do. And thus we strongly encourage people from ALL backgrounds to apply for this position. Applicants must be authorized to work for ANY employer in the US. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time.

COO / Growth Operator (SaaS)
Company: Allen AI Type: Full-Time
About Allen AI: ********************
Allen AI is all in on helping beginner entrepreneurs and online content creators succeed in the digital economy.
We are building the #1 AI tool + link-in-bio platform for creators on Instagram and TikTok.
Our mission is help ordinary people create extraordinary online businesses
And we plan on doing that by becoming the one-stop, all-in creator software that helps users:
Find the most viral content online (currently on Instagram, will expand to TikTok, YouTube, etc)
Write viral content in their own voice using AI
Auto-generate a full link-in-bio store website, customized using AI by scanning their social profile - including their brand voice, color palette, digital products, and layout preferences
The result? A software experience that is simpler, cleaner, and more elegant than anything else on the market - built by creators, for creators.
Our founder, Richard Yu, is not your typical SaaS CEO. He practices what he preaches. Over the last 5 years, Richard has scaled his digital product business from $0 to $28M+ in sales, while building a lean, profitable, and impact-driven digital products business, and a personal brand of 1.2M+ followers across Instagram and YouTube.
Unlike most software founders who build for creators without being creators themselves, Richard still actively sells digital products, mentors creators, and works 1-on-1 with the same people this tool is designed for.
With 6,000+ clients served, across every niche imaginable - fitness, faith, relationships, therapy, online business, you name it- Allen AI is being built directly from the frontline feedback of real users, not guesswork.
This is your chance to help us build the tool the creator economy has been waiting for.
About the Role
We are looking for a world-class, execution-obsessed operator to join Allen AI as our Founding COO / Operator. This is not a cushy exec job. This is a boots-on-the-ground role for someone who loves building from $1M to $50M ARR.
You will work directly with Richard to " + "own the day-to-day execution, so he can go all-in on content, traffic generation, and brand building.
You will be the engine behind the machine. If you've ever wanted to build a category-defining SaaS company from the inside, this is your shot.
What You'll Own
Daily Operations: Run the business day-to-day. Manage team, meetings, KPIs, and execution across departments.
Product Execution: Be the product owner working closely with our lead dev (Ivan). Prioritize features, gather user feedback, and ship updates.
Team Leadership: Hold people accountable. Build hiring systems. Fire fast, promote fast. Make a world-class team under you.
