We are seeking an Executive Assistant to support our Chief Technology Officer and leadership team.

You will help manage the operational rhythm, build relationships across the business, and anticipate needs to keep our team focused on our customers. This position is a temp to perm opportunity.

Book and manage all domestic and international travel, including ground transportation, lunches, and logistics.
Process and reconcile expenses accurately and on time.
Partner closely with the CTO’s direct reports and their teams to stay ahead of what’s coming.
Anticipate needs, flag risks, and propose solutions.
Handle sensitive information with discretion and good judgment.
What We’re Looking For:
Minimum of 3+ years supporting C-suite or senior executive leaders, ideally in a fast-paced tech or SaaS environment.
A reputation for being trusted, discreet, and genuinely respected by the people you work with.
Strong calendar management skills with a strategic approach to prioritization.
Excellent written communication skills; able to draft messages and agendas with minimal direction.
Comfortable working cross-functionally and building relationships at all levels of the organization.
Highly organized but adaptable; able to adjust to shifting priorities without losing momentum.
Low ego, high standards, and a growth mindset; committed to excellence because the work matters.
Proficiency with Google Workspace, Slack, and expense management tools (such as Brex, Coupa, etc.).
Ability to travel up to 20%.
