Summary Generated by Built In

Confido is the AI infrastructure powering modern CPG — the platform that 200+ brands like OLIPOP, Simple Mills, Dr. Squatch, and Tropicana use to run everything from deductions to production planning. Finance, accounting, sales, and operations, unified in one system for the first time.

The Role

As the Executive Assistant to our Founder, Justin, you will provide core administrative support to keep leadership focused on Confido’s highest-leverage work.

  • Workflow Optimization: Create repeatable processes, templates, and automations that improve administrative efficiency while maintaining strict confidentiality.

  • Precision Logistics: Coordinate end-to-end travel logistics, planning detailed itineraries down to the last variable.

  • Special Projects: Adapt seamlessly to shifting startup priorities by owning ad-hoc administrative initiatives and special projects as needed.

  • Exceptional writing and critical thinking skills, confident in handling high-stakes corporate and investor correspondence.

  • Strong prioritization skills, remaining exceptionally calm and flexible under the natural pressures of a high-growth startup environment.

The Company

Year Founded: 2022

What We Do

CPG is a multi-trillion-dollar industry, but the path from factory to store shelf still runs on spreadsheets, emailed PDFs, and legacy systems held together with duct tape. Brands lose real time and money every day reconciling data, fighting retailer disputes, and coordinating across finance, sales, and supply chain. We're replacing that manual work with AI agents on a single intelligent platform — from cash application and deductions to demand forecasting, supply planning, and trade promotion management. It's working. We're the infrastructure behind 200+ brands, from OLIPOP to Simple Mills to Dr. Squatch, managing $40B+ in customer revenue, with 5x ARR growth. Backed by Footwork and Y Combinator.

Why Work With Us

You'll never wait for a performance review to get a raise or bonus you've earned. Ownership works the same way: trusted from day one to own things end to end. Need something to do your job better? You won't have to ask twice.
