About the Role We’re looking for a Head of Strategic Delivery &amp; Execution to drive clarity, pace, and accountability across how we plan, build, and deliver at Whisk. This is a highly visible leadership role, reporting to our COO with regular interaction across Whisk and Samsung leadership, and exposure to our Board.

We value autonomy, flexibility, and high accountability. You should thrive in a flat, collaborative environment and be comfortable navigating the tension between startup pace and corporate dependencies. This role is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys building from scratch, solving problems across functions, and shaping Whisk and Samsung to build, deliver, and monetize software. Why This Role <ul> <li>This is a builder’s job. We’re crafting industry-leading solutions, and time-to-market is everything — you’ll be the enabler if we’re successful. You’ll get to shape how a high-impact company inside Samsung executes at scale — with autonomy, visibility, and impact.</li> <li>We’re 100% remote, with a flexible culture and a global team. You’ll work across time zones and across worlds, helping us move fast without losing cohesion.</li> <li>Contract-based, full-time role (40 hours/week, depending on workload) with a long-term commitment.
