Executive Assistant & Office Manager
AI Summary
Executive Assistant and Office Manager for a fast-growing AI startup, handling founder calendars, travel, office operations, vendor management, onboarding, and team events to remove friction and keep the organization running smoothly.
About this role
Our mission is general causal intelligence; AI that is capable of (1) predicting the future and (2) identifying the actions to alter it.
To achieve this breakthrough, we are building a Large Physics foundation Model (LPM) because physical systems, unlike text or images, are governed by verifiable cause and effect. We believe that scaling on physics will enable an understanding of causality required to predict and control physical systems, starting with weather.
Our founding team has built and deployed AI against the physical world in robotics, drug discovery, and particle physics at institutions like DeepMind, Waymo, Cruise, Insitro, Nabla Bio, and CERN.
We're looking for an exceptional operator to be the backbone of a fast-growing team. As one of our earliest operations hires, you'll keep our founders focused on the mission and our office running so smoothly that no one has to think about it. Your mission is to remove friction everywhere by anticipating what the team needs before it asks, and making it happen.
Responsibilities
Provide high-leverage support to our founders: own their calendars, travel, and scheduling, and protect their time for what matters most
Run the office and workplace end to end — space, supplies, meals, and vendors — creating an environment where the team does its best work
Own team logistics and culture: coordinate onboarding, team events, and offsites that bring a fast-growing team together
Build the operational systems and processes that let the company scale smoothly as we grow
Be the person who makes things happen — spotting what's needed and handling it before it becomes a problem
What we're looking for
We value a relentless approach to problem-solving, rapid execution, and the ability to quickly learn in unfamiliar domains.
Experience as an executive assistant, office manager, or in a similar operations role, ideally in a fast-paced or high-growth environment
Exceptional organization and attention to detail, with the ability to juggle many priorities at once
Strong judgment and discretion in handling sensitive information and competing demands
A proactive, resourceful, get-it-done attitude — no task too big or too small
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
