Special Projects Manager

Turnout, Solana Beach, CA, United States


Most people have no idea what they're entitled to — and the systems designed to help them make sure it stays that way. Turnout Technologies (turnout.co) is changing that. We're a well-funded modern consumer advocacy platform that combines expert human advocates with Jake, our proprietary AI agent, to help everyday Americans navigate the systems stacked against them — from government benefits, healthcare, education, and beyond.

About the Role
You'll sit at the intersection of strategy and execution — owning high-priority initiatives from brief to completion, working directly with the CEO and across every team at Turnout.

What You'll Do

Own special projects end-to-end: scope, execute, and deliver with minimal oversight

Coordinate cross-functional workstreams across product, ops, sales, and tech

Build, deploy, and maintain AI agents and automation tools that accelerate your own work and the team's

Synthesize information from multiple sources into clear decisions and actions

Identify gaps in process and fix them — without being asked twice

What We're Looking For

Proven track record owning complex, ambiguous projects from start to finish

Hands-on experience building and deploying AI agents — not just using AI tools, actually building them

Strong communicator who collaborates well and holds people accountable without friction

Highly organized, fast-moving, and comfortable with a high-growth startup pace

Based in or willing to relocate to Solana Beach — this is a fully in-office role

Prior founder experience is a strong plus

Nice to Have

Background in operations, consulting, or a high-growth startup

Familiarity with Salesforce, BigQuery, or workflow automation platforms

Experience in consumer-facing businesses
