Support recruiting coordination, candidate visits, and interview logistics.
Spot operational gaps, proactively solve problems, and take ownership of ad hoc initiatives.
Build AI agents and workflows to automate repetitive tasks and inefficient processes across executive support and the company.
What You’ll Bring
Experience in executive support, operations, or a similarly fast-paced role, ideally at a high-growth startup.
Extremely fast and reliable, with a strong bias for action and follow-through.
