Strategic COO

Let's build the internal infrastructure that lets you stop firefighting and start scaling.

Budgets, KPIs, risk, and governance run as one operating system, built and implemented by someone who's run this function end-to-end, then handed to your own team, not just advised on from the outside.

Seven years of operational leadership across two venture-backed companies, with the same closeness to the founder as a trusted right hand.

What I Do

A preview of what I build into a growing company

Each of these is a function Anthos has owned directly, not observed from the sidelines. This is a sample of the skill set, not the full list of what's possible. If the gap you're facing isn't listed here, ask: if it's been built before, it can be installed into your team too.

Governance, Process & Reporting

Board and leadership meeting cadence, documented SOPs, and KPI reporting run as one connected system instead of three separate efforts.

Systems & People Operations

Getting a company's knowledge, contracts, and policies into one organized system with a clear internal owner, plus the hiring, onboarding, and people infrastructure that scales with headcount after I'm gone.

Financial Planning & Budget Ownership

Operational budgets, resource allocation, and financial planning run as one system, with monthly reconciliation and a defined threshold for when spend needs a decision.

KPI Systems & Board Reporting

KPI and OKR ownership, a scored risk register, and a reporting cadence to the CEO and board that all trace back to the same source of truth.

Founder Support on Sensitive Matters

A trusted point of contact for founders on high-discretion issues: legal disputes, expense management, and other sensitive decisions.

Internal Communications & Culture

All-hands cadence, culture rituals, and the internal comms system that keeps a distributed team aligned and engaged as headcount grows.

Engagement Types

Four ways to work together

Three of these are project-based: Anthos builds the system, trains the people who'll own it, works through the bugs in production, then leaves. The fourth is an ongoing retainer for companies that want continued coverage instead of a single build. Every option is scoped to where your company actually is, not a one-size-fits-all engagement.

Build From Zero

Architecting the Structure

For founders with nothing formal in place yet. Anthos establishes governance, systems, and process from the ground up, trains the team that will own it, and stays through the first real test before handing it off.

Rebuild

Review & Rearchitect an Existing System

For companies where something already exists but isn't working. Anthos re-architects what's in place, trains the team on the new version, and works through the rough edges before stepping back.

Advisory

Consultancy for Established Systems

For companies with functioning systems who want a second, expert opinion. Anthos diagnoses what's actually happening, hands over a prioritized fix list, and trains whoever owns the fix.

Retainer

Ongoing Operational Partner

For companies that want continued coverage instead of a single project. Anthos stays on as an interim COO on retainer, fixing what's broken and coaching management in real time, for as long as the relationship is useful.
