About Pye

Pye is building the next generation of liquid staking infrastructure on Solana, starting with Liquid Staking Bonds (LSBs) - a new DeFi primitive that transforms stake accounts into tradable bonds. Our mission is to build Solana's yield curve, unlocking new yield products for stakers and new revenue streams for validators.

We’re looking for a Chief of Staff who will work directly with our founders to help run the company. This role is a mix of operations, project management, event planning, and cross-team coordination - perfect for someone who thrives in the fast-paced, all-hands-on-deck environment of an early-stage startup.

Role Overview

As Chief of Staff at Pye, you’ll be the glue that keeps the team aligned, organized, and moving forward. One week you might be coordinating logistics for an in-person team retreat, the next you could be managing internal deadlines, preparing materials for investor updates, or helping launch a community event on Solana.

Your work will directly influence our execution speed, team cohesion, and market presence.

What You’ll Do

• Work with the founders to manage day-to-day operations and ensure priorities are met.
• Plan and execute events - from small team offsites and retreats to larger in-person ecosystem gatherings.
• Handle administrative tasks, including scheduling, vendor coordination, travel planning, and expense tracking.
• Prepare materials for internal meetings, investor updates, and partner calls.
• Support hiring processes — job postings, candidate scheduling, and onboarding.
• Assist with special projects across BD, marketing, and community engagement.
• Ensure cross-team communication flows smoothly and nothing slips through the cracks.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience in operations, project management, or executive support — preferably in a startup..
• Exceptional organizational and multitasking skills.
• Strong written and verbal communication abilities.
• Comfortable working in a remote, async-first environment with a small team.
• Ability to own projects end-to-end with minimal oversight.
• A "no task is too small" attitude — willing to handle details while keeping the big picture in mind.

Nice-to-Have

• Experience in crypto/DeFi/Solana or other tech ecosystems.
• Event planning experience (corporate retreats, conferences, hackathons).
• Familiarity with community platforms like Telegram, Discord, or Twitter.
• Comfort with tools like Linear, Discord, and Google Workspace for company operations.

Why Join Us

• Work closely with founders at the heart of an early-stage DeFi startup.
• Influence company culture, operations, and growth trajectory.
• Be part of a small, mission-driven team building new market infrastructure on Solana.
• Opportunities to travel for events and ecosystem gatherings.
