Job description

Fractional Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) – 3 to 6 Month Engagement

Location: Remote (Scottsdale preferred but not required)

Seniority: Executive Consultant / Fractional Leadership

Reporting to: Founder & President

Compensation: Competitive monthly retainer, commensurate with senior fractional executive experience.

Klaritee is building a deterministic intelligence platform with enterprise, governance, and national-level safety applications. As the company enters a high-velocity build phase, we are seeking a Fractional Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) to architect, establish, and operationalize the foundational systems that will support our executive team, engineering organization, governance structures, and long-term institutional scale.

This role is ideal for a seasoned operational leader who has repeatedly built early-stage infrastructure for complex or regulated technology environments. You will design and implement Klaritee’s internal operating system from the ground up, ensuring clarity, cohesion, compliance, and readiness for rapid executive expansion. This is a short-term but high-impact engagement, and the work you do will define the structural foundation of the company moving forward.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build Klaritee’s foundational business infrastructure, including operational systems, internal processes, and cross-department workflows.
  • Establish documentation and reporting structures, administrative policies, and organizational clarity.
  • Set up onboarding systems, HR/people operations pathways, contractor/employee processes, and compliance baselines.
  • Develop internal communication cadences, meeting structures, and cross-executive coordination channels.
  • Support initial alignment between CSO/EVP, CCO‑SVP, CTO, and CFO, as the executive team forms.
  • Coordinate with legal, financial, and governance partners to ensure clean operational integration.
  • Build the operational scaffolding that the long-term full-time CAO will inherit.
  • Identify operational gaps and implement scalable systems that remove burden from the founder and executive team.
  • Evaluate tooling, vendor platforms, workflow automation, and operational readiness for enterprise‑grade growth.

Ideal Background

A strong candidate will have experience such as:

  • Former CAO, COO, Chief of Staff, or VP of Operations in an early-stage or high‑complexity tech company.
  • Demonstrated ability to take a company from 0 → 1 operationally, creating clarity from ambiguity.
  • Experience building processes for teams working across engineering, legal, finance, and governance.
  • Fluency in administrative operations, compliance, HR structure, and multi‑department coordination.
  • Comfortable working directly with the founder and acting as the operational architect of the company.
  • Exceptional organizational intelligence, documentation discipline, and systems thinking.

This role requires someone who thrives in environments where the operational foundation needs to be created rapidly, cleanly, and with long-term scalability in mind.

  • Fractional engagement, typically 10–25 hours per week.
  • Expected duration: 3 to 6 months.
  • Direct access to the founder and executive team.
  • High autonomy with clearly defined outcomes.
  • Potential to advise on hiring the permanent full‑time CAO.

Why Join Klaritee (Fractional Role)

This is an opportunity to design the operating environment for a company creating a new category of deterministic intelligence. You will:

  • Build the internal architecture before scale begins.
  • Create clarity and structure for a rapidly forming executive team.
  • Ensure operational readiness for enterprise, governance, and safety‑aligned workstreams.
  • Leave behind a long‑lasting operational foundation that shapes the company’s future.

Your work will directly influence Klaritee’s structural integrity as it enters a pivotal phase of growth.
