Redfin is scaling fast and reinventing itself as an AI-native company. The Chief of Staff to the CEO will be the force multiplier behind that transformation — turning the CEO's biggest bets into structured, cross-functional execution, and driving AI adoption across people, process, and capabilities. This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role for an operator who brings rigor to ambiguity and can influence senior leaders horizontally without formal authority. The Chief of Staff will operate as a trusted partner to the CEO and the executive team: framing decisions, leading company-wide initiatives, and making sure the organization moves with clarity, speed, and accountability.
About the role
Drive large-scale organizational transformation, translating the CEO's strategic priorities into structured programs with clear owners, milestones, and outcomes
Lead the company's AI adoption and transformation, bringing a real technical understanding of AI to reshape how teams work, what they build, and how they operate at scale
Run cross-functional growth initiatives across product, design, engineering, and marketing, keeping senior stakeholders aligned and initiatives on track
Bring operational and execution rigor to a fast-moving environment: build the operating cadence, decision frameworks, and reporting that keep the org accountable
Prepare the CEO for board meetings, leadership reviews, and key external moments; own follow-through on the decisions that come out of them
Act as a horizontal influence across the executive team, building trust, brokering alignment, and unblocking work without needing to be told how
Design how the organization works: operating model, capability, and talent systems to support scaled growth
Drive change management across the organization, influencing teams and leaders who don't report directly to this role
