About Us

*Lightning Rod Labs trains AI to predict the future.*

We train LLMs to predict real-world outcomes with scalable self-play on unstructured data. We make it easy for enterprises to train custom models from messy data, no extraction required.

Messy data in; accurate predictions out

What You’ll Do

• Lead strategic priorities: Collaborate with CEO and leadership to identify and deliver high-impact projects
• Accelerate impact: Optimize decision-making, coordinate launches, and drive accountability
• Influence cross-functionally: Remove blockers and accelerate progress across Product, Engineering, and GTM.
• Drive growth: Hands on experiments to optimize growth channels and ensure customer success
• Solve undefined problems: Identify and tackle undefined, mission-critical work—from new hiring needs, new operational processes, or product requirements.

What We Expect from You

• High-agency: Self-starter who identifies gaps and fills them without permission
• Proven owner: PM, founder, or early operator with end-to-end ownership experience
• Influential collaborator: Drives outcomes through relationships and persuasion rather than organizational structure
• Strategic & hands-on: Comfortable with both visionary planning and granular implementation with equal enthusiasm
• Thrives in ambiguity: Adaptable, resourceful, and action-biased in uncertain environments
