Business Operations Associate

Operations · Palo Alto, CA

Company description

ArcaLabs is an official FactSet AI Partner, focused on building advanced technology solutions that enhance data-driven decision-making for financial and enterprise clients. The company develops and integrates AI-powered tools that streamline workflows, improve operational efficiency, and unlock actionable insights from complex datasets. Team members collaborate across disciplines to design, test, and deploy scalable products and services. ArcaLabs offers a dynamic, innovation-focused environment where individuals can contribute to impactful projects and grow their skills in AI, finance, and operations.

What you'll do

  • Run the C-suite's operating cadence: calendar, travel, inbox triage, meeting prep, and follow-through on action items across Palo Alto and NYC.
  • Own back-office finance with our provider (Every.io): monthly close review, expense categorization, AP/AR, invoicing customers, and collections.
  • Track and pay commissions across AEs, fractional GTM contractors, and advisors, keeping attribution and payouts accurate.
  • Manage contracts end to end: NDAs, customer license agreements, contractor and data purchase agreements, renewals, and a clean contract repository.
  • Support compliance and security work (SOC 2 evidence collection, vendor reviews, customer security questionnaires).
  • Run people ops: onboarding and offboarding, payroll changes, benefits setup, and hiring coordination.
  • Support fundraising: data room, investor updates, cap table hygiene, and diligence requests.
  • Own special projects as the company scales: pricing analysis, pipeline and revenue reporting, vendor negotiations, and new initiatives.
  • Keep the Palo Alto office running: vendors, supplies, events, snacks, and visitors.

What we're looking for

  • 1–4 years in ops, bizops, IB/consulting, or a founder's office at an early-stage startup.
  • Comfort with bookkeeping basics (QuickBooks or similar), Excel/Sheets, and reading contracts.
  • Extreme ownership, discretion with sensitive information, and a bias to get things done without being asked.
  • In person in Palo Alto, full-time.
