Role

Who you are

  • Highly ambitious and aggressive mindset – someone that understands that great technology companies are built through effort, intensity, and endurance
  • Proven results – we want to hear that you have led projects and completed them, driving value and results for previous workplaces
  • In-person – this role is strictly 5 days per week in the office in NYC

What the job involves

  • The Operations Manager will have the opportunity to lay the groundwork for the team that underlies Medal, involved in hiring, culture, team structure and compensation, and finance
  • Hiring – both via outreach and pipeline management, this role will be in charge of understanding who we need to hire, finding candidates, and conducting first round interviews to qualify candidates for the leadership team
  • Compensation and leveling – after learning the company's cultural goals, this role will support in evolving our leveling system, and aligning compensation
  • Corporate structuring – working alongside the COO on legal matters, managing lawyers to navigate compliance and tax risk, and structuring the company to better incentivize the team and raise capital
  • Office management – this role will require upkeep of the office space, in addition to navigating location changes as the team grows
  • Sales and partnerships – as needed, this role may require work on partnerships in projects like GTA/Roblox/Minecraft server discovery, finding developer partnerships for our new AI product, and more

Our take

Video games have become highly social experiences due to multiplayer gaming, eSports, and social media, spawning a huge market for audiences who enjoy watching gaming-related video content. Gamers commonly stream games and edit the footage to produce memes and engage with friends, but this requires many software tools and a separate platform to share experiences on.

Medal.tv provides a social platform for gaming video clips, allowing users to record and edit footage, make gaming memes, and share content with friends within the same software. The platform collects in-game data to mitigate cheating and cyberbullying and integrates directly into any Windows or Android game.

Whilst the company will face great competition from platform giants such as Youtube, TikTok, and Twitch, Medal.tv shows the potential to stand out by being specifically designed for gaming content. Furthermore, the platform’s accessible video capturing and editing interface keeps the end-to-end social gaming experience within the same platform, making it more convenient and immersive for gamers than on other platforms.
