Job Description

Director of Operations

Location: Austin, Texas (In-Person / Hybrid)

About Texas Sports Academy

Texas Sports Academy (TSA) is redefining education for student-athletes. Our mission is built on four core commitments:

1. Learn 2x – Students accelerate academically

2. Love School – A culture students are excited to be part of

3. Life NIL & Life Skills – Preparing students for real-world success

4. Double D1 Odds – Maximizing athletic and academic pathways

We operate like a high-growth startup , not a traditional school. If you've ever wanted to help build something meaningful from the inside—this is that opportunity.

The Role

We're looking for a Director of Operations to ensure our schools run smoothly day-to-day while continuously improving systems, execution, and outcomes. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone early in their career who is ambitious, scrappy, and wants real responsibility fast—similar to joining a YC-style startup .

You'll work closely with leadership to turn vision into execution and make sure our four commitments are delivered consistently across the organization.

What You'll Do

Operational Excellence

• Own day-to-day operations across TSA schools

• Ensure systems, schedules, and teams are aligned and running efficiently

• Identify bottlenecks and proactively solve problems

Deliver the Four Commitments

• Translate TSA's four commitments into operational execution

• Track outcomes across academics, culture, life skills, and athletics

• Partner with academic, coaching, and support teams

Systems & Process Building

• Build and improve SOPs, workflows, and internal processes

• Implement tools to improve accountability and visibility

• Bring structure to fast-moving, ambiguous environments

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Coordinate across academics, athletics, admissions, and operations

• Serve as a point of accountability for execution

• Support hiring, onboarding, and training as TSA grows

Founder-Level Exposure

• Work directly with leadership on strategic initiatives

• Own special projects critical to growth and scale

Who We're Looking For

Must-Haves

• 2–5 years of professional experience (operations, startups, consulting, education, or similar)

• Based in Texas (Austin preferred) or willing to relocate

• Extremely ambitious and ownership-driven

• Strong organizational, execution, and problem-solving skills

• Comfortable in fast-paced, startup-style environments

• Excellent communication and follow-through

Nice to Have

• Experience building systems or processes from scratch

• Background in startups, operations, or education

• Passion for sports, education, or youth development

• Interest in long-term leadership growth

Why Join Texas Sports Academy

• Real ownership and responsibility early in your career

• Work on a mission-driven product impacting students' lives

• Startup-level learning curve with real consequences

• Opportunity to grow into senior leadership as TSA scales
