OpenRouter is hiring a Strategic Finance & BizOps Manager to help steer the company’s next phase of growth.

This role is for someone who loves connecting dots across product, GTM, and finance, thrives in a fast-changing environment, and wants real ownership. If you’re excited to build lightweight, high-leverage operating systems (and use AI to move faster), you’ll have outsized impact here.
