The role
About Mundo AI
Mundo AI builds multimodal data infrastructure for frontier research labs and Fortune 100 companies, spanning audio, video, and emerging modalities to advance perceptual intelligence.
We are hiring an Operations Manager to turn complex data-project requirements into reliable execution, scalable capacity, and consistently high-quality delivery.
What you'll do
Run data productions end to end. You'll take a research request and turn it into a plan with a budget, a timeline, staffing, and a list of the logistics, then deliver on it.
Find and manage participants. You'll source the right people for each dataset, whether that's students, specialists, or performers. You'll also handle their contracts, scheduling, and day-to-day experience.
Handle venues, equipment, and vendors. You'll book spaces, rent audio and video gear, arrange catering, and negotiate with suppliers.
Own quality. You'll develop an eye for what makes data good and build that standard into how sessions are run, recorded, and reviewed.
Partner with researchers. You'll work directly with our clients to understand what they need, set expectations, and spot opportunities to do more together.
Build the playbook. You'll turn each production into repeatable processes, templates, and vendor relationships so the next one goes faster.
What we're looking for
At least 2 years of full-time work experience. Between 2 and 5 years is our sweet spot.
A track record of organizing complex things. You should have owned events, productions, campaigns, programs, or projects from start to finish, with real budgets, hard deadlines, and many people involved.
Clear evidence that you've excelled somewhere competitive. That could be a top academic record, a scholarship, an elected leadership role, a top performance ranking at work, or admission to a selective program.
Calm, resourceful execution. When the venue falls through the night before, you already have a plan B.
Strong communication. You're comfortable working directly with researchers, vendors, and dozens of participants, often all in the same week.
You're based in Vancouver, or willing to relocate, and able to work on-site for productions.
Bonus points
Creative taste. You have a strong sense of what makes something good, whether it's a recording, a film, a performance, or a conversation.
Business instincts. You've worked directly with clients, managed accounts, or helped grow a relationship.
Hands-on technical skills. You have experience with audio engineering, AV setup, or production equipment.
Experience at a startup or in a fast-moving, scrappy environment.
You might come from
People who thrive here usually come from one of two backgrounds. You don't need either one if you can show us the same strengths.
The high-achieving organizer. You may have run a student society, managed an election campaign, worked as a political staffer, been a consultant who ran the logistics, or worked as a program or events coordinator. You love bringing order to chaos, and people trust you with the big stuff.
The creative producer. You may have been a production manager or coordinator in film and TV, an audio engineer, a festival or live-event producer, or a musician who ran your own tours and releases. You bring taste and technical chops, and you've also excelled academically or professionally.
