FitXR is building the future of fitness. Forget products for people who already enjoy exercise. This is about fitness for the 96% of people who don't go to the gym and who haven't already built habits around movement. Operating at the intersection of spatial and wearable AI, we build experiences which prove that exercise can be fun and for everyone. While nothing compares to trying it yourself, this trailer gives you a taste.

Anticipate what's coming for Sam and the SLT. Ensure key meetings and decisions land well because the right groundwork has been done. Improve clarity around ownership, tighten decision making, call out drift and ensure accountability without creating bureaucracy. Driving change from idea to adoption. You own ambiguous cross-functional initiatives including Special Projects - moving experimental ideas into plans, plans into action and action into measurable change which sticks. You'll need to be proactive with strong project management skills. Providing direction for ops. You'll own people, legal and general ops as well as managing a Business Ops Associate. Together you'll ensure that internal processes and tools work smoothly and protect the team's focus and momentum. Processing and applying business context.
