Business Lead, Frame

Elite financial planning doesn't scale. The best advisors serve ~50-100 households. We're fixing that by turning financial logic into code.

At Frame, we're building an AI-powered financial office that delivers top-1% tax and financial planning to millions of Americans. We've launched with paying customers, a small high-trust team, and strong backing from CoinTracker ($100M raised, Accel/YC).

We're looking for a Business Lead to co-lead Frame alongside our Technical & Product Lead. You'll own the business side: growth, marketing, partnerships, client experience, CPA/CFP team operations, compliance, and hiring. Your co-lead owns product and engineering. You report directly to the CEO.

This isn't a "business person who sits in meetings." You'll write the first blog post. You'll run the first partnership call. You'll onboard customers yourself. You'll hire the team that does all of this at scale.
