Chief Leverage Officer

In 2019, we started building profitable startups from scratch. We brought together top engineering minds from places like Princeton and MIT to drive the highest success rate in the industry and turn company building into a science.

During that time, we've built ten high-growth companies, driving $200M+ in revenue. Along the way, we've developed an engineering approach to entrepreneurship rooted in algorithms and advanced mathematics. Now, we're working to automate company building to the point that we can press a button to launch profitable companiesventures that can reinvest their own resources to become enterprises that help millions, or even billions, of people.

A Message From Our CEO : "At Mechanism, our goal is to generate $10B in liquid enterprise value over the next 10 years. We call it '10-in-10.' My job is to architect the system, lead our boards, and stay focused on the highest-leverage work that drives that outcome. That means everything elsethe internal engineneeds to operate without me slowing it down. That's where you come in. I'm looking for a partner who can own operations end-to-end, eliminate drag, and turn our internal playbooks into AI-enabled systems that compound. Someone who sees leverage, thinks from first principles, and turns chaos into momentum."

If you want a high-trust seat at the table, and you're ready to go to war for Alpha, this is it.

Breanden Beneschott, Mechanism Cofounder & CEO

The Opportunity : Our 10-in-10 goal to generate $10 billion in liquid enterprise value is not a linear pathit's a compounding equation. The most critical variable in that equation is leverage. To win, we must build a system where every input of capital, time, and talent produces an ever-increasing output of value.

We are seeking a Chief Leverage Officer to own this mission. This person will be the operational architect of our entire internal engine, with a singular mandate : to create maximum leverage for our Growth Team and portfolio companies, enabling them to achieve the leverage our 10-in-10 goal requires.

Key Responsibilities :

You Have Three Core Missions :

• Own the Operational Engine : Take full ownership of our internal engine. You will lead all non-growth teams (Product, Engineering, Finance, People, Operations, etc.), transforming them from support functions into a high-leverage, AI-enabled system that provides seamless leverage to our portfolio companies, profit centers, launch teams, and our growth team.
• Accelerate the Launch Machine : Your second mandate is to enable our Chief Growth Officer and her team to increase our company launch rate. You'll do this by building the infrastructureAI systems, internal tooling, and operational processesthat removes drag and amplifies their speed. Your success is measured by how effectively you help them go faster, with fewer blockers and greater precision.
• Maximize CEO Leverage : Your third mandate is to act as my direct force multiplier (~20% of your time). You will own high-impact special projects, serve as my proxy in key operational decisions, and leverage automation to free up my time, ensuring my focus remains on system-level strategy.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise :

Core Requirements : The right candidate will recognize themselves in the message above. This is not a role for a traditional operator; it is for a builder who can demonstrate the following :

Benefits :

Compensation : Our compensation packages are designed to make this your dream jobboth immediately and over the long term. Base salary ranges from $200,000 to $250,000, with total compensation tailored to your priorities. Packages may include equity and performance bonuses. Benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage, as well as unlimited time off (with a two-week minimum).

Location : While Mechanism operates as a remote-first company, this role is US-based only with strong overlap to Eastern / Central time and excludes West Coast locations. Regular travel to locations such as Naples, Florida; Dorado Beach, Puerto Rico; and Washington, DC for in-person working sessions.

About Mechanism Ventures :

Mechanism is an early-stage venture firm that partners with and funds extraordinary talent to cofound and scale $1B+ companies. Our core hypothesis is that world-class talent who have the right guidance and support can become startup CEOs, achieve early profitability, and, through aggressive reinvestment, can scale $1B+ companies with minimal risk.
