About Pallet
Pallet is building AI Agents to transform the physical economy, a $12 trillion global TAM. We’ve raised $50M from top investors, including General Catalyst, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Bain Capital Ventures.
Our mission is to increase the efficiency of the global supply chain by automating the manual workflows that slow supply chain teams down. Our flagship platform provides end-to-end visibility, and control.
As companies across the physical economy look to drive efficiency, many are turning to Pallet to lead the way. With deep supply chain expertise and cutting-edge AI capabilities, we’re positioned to build the next $10B company powering the physical economy.
Join us and work alongside leaders from Google, DoorDash, YC, and more to shape the future of supply chain technology.
The role in one paragraph
You sit in the Strategy and Ops team and own the growth problems that decide whether Pallet becomes a generational company. You report to Ryan Gu, our Chief of Staff, and work closely with Sushanth Raman, our CEO. In practice, you're close to the decisions that set direction.
Why this role exists. Sushanth has been doing most of this himself. Channel partnerships, value-based pricing, investor and advisor networks, executive relationships — these have been the CEO's own projects, run out of his calendar. That no longer scales. You're not hired into a function someone else defined; you're taking handoff of the CEO's highest-leverage work, alongside Ryan and the rest of the Strategy and Ops team.

What the work actually looks like
Here's the real mix from someone about a month into this seat. Treat it as a picture of the territory, not a job spec — the split will shift with your strengths and what the company needs that quarter.
Business value and pricing
Executive support, strategy, and internal leverage
What good looks like at the end of a quarter: new partners sourced and activated, a pricing or business-case change that shows up in closed deals, and multiplying the potential output of our commercial and deployment teams.
What this role is not
"Strategy and operations" means twenty different things at twenty different companies, so we're explicit here.
Why Pallet, and why now
How your career scales here
We're flat and we promote from within. We care about slope, ownership, and impact; not ladders or tenure.
Realistic paths from this seat: Head of Growth, Head of Partnerships, Head of Pricing and Business Value, or GM of a product line. Which one depends on which part of the work you make yours.
Compensation
Interview process
We move fast and keep you informed at every stage.
Our Benefits
We invest in our people the same way we invest in our product: seriously.
Workplace Policy
We are an in-person company. Our offices in San Francisco, New York City and London are where ideas get built, decisions get made, and the team gets stronger. We have invested in making them genuinely great places to spend your day, with catered lunches, monthly happy hours, and people who care about the work and each other.
Most of our team works in office five days a week. For select roles, we hire remotely across the U.S. Remote employees come to one of our offices for their first week to onboard and meet the team, and we cover the full trip.
Every role is different. Travel expectations are always shared upfront in the job description and confirmed in your first call with us.
