Series A robotics startup building autonomous systems for critical infrastructure is looking for an Executive Assistant to support their founding team, with a primary focus on a Co-Founder. In this role, you'll own calendar and scheduling across multiple execs, coordinate travel for a team that's frequently on the road, and help plan and execute team events and offsites. Someone who is proactive, thrives in ambiguity, and brings a high level of trust and discretion to a fast-moving, engineering-heavy culture.

Act as a trusted, discreet extension of the team, respecting sensitive information and clear boundaries at all times.
Take on light people-ops support as the company scales, with room to grow into additional scope over time.
Qualifications
Previous experience in an EA or similarly operational support role is a plus, but not required, a hunger to learn and grow into the role matters more.
Exceptional organizational skills and keen attention to detail.
Proactive and solutions-oriented, with an instinct to anticipate needs rather than wait for direction.
Comfortable managing complex, ever-shifting calendars across multiple stakeholders.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a direct, no-nonsense style.
High level of trust, discretion, and sound judgment when handling sensitive information.
Thrives in ambiguous, fast-paced environments where the playbook is still being written.
