I'm looking for mid-senior operations roles where diagnosing systemic problems and building solutions matters more than maintaining the status quo.
Rae Schneider
@raeschneider
I design the operational data systems that let scaling companies actually see what's happening inside their business.
What I'm looking for
Over the last 10 years, I've built the infrastructure that turns fragmented processes into repeatable, measurable operations. At a healthcare-tech startup, I redesigned the entire revenue and customer operations function, built the reporting and claims infrastructure from the ground up, and delivered 100% client retention over two years. At a national non-profit, I cut manual workload 25% by building automation tools for a 100-person team. Earlier, I scaled a retail operation from $1M to $10M ARR by implementing an ERP and building the operational foundation to sustain it.
My pattern across every role: identify what data needs to exist, build the system to capture it, and create the infrastructure that makes it usable, by leadership, by the team, and by the business.
I work best at companies past product-market fit that are hitting the ceiling of informal systems. The spreadsheets and workarounds that got you here won't get you to the next stage. That's where I work best.
