This role is pivotal in orchestrating day-to-day operations, enabling seamless execution of strategic priorities, and acting as a trusted partner to senior leadership.

The ideal candidate is more than just a calendar wrangler — they are a sharp, first-principles thinker who thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced environment and brings a collaborative mindset to problem-solving. You should be eager to streamline processes, anticipate needs before they arise, and bring creative approaches to executive support. If you’re energized by working behind the scenes to help innovative teams perform at their best, this is your opportunity to make a real impact.

Role Overview

As a key member of a high-performing team, you’ll support Engineering, Program, and Executive Leadership with critical administrative and operational tasks.

You should have exceptional communication skills, a commitment to achieving a high level of accuracy and attention to detail, and have a no-task-too-small approach to our work.

  • Providing proactive, high-level administrative support to executive leadership and senior staff, ensuring seamless coordination of daily operations and strategic initiatives
  • Executing sound judgment, discretion, and the ability to manage complex calendars, priorities, and communications with minimal oversight.
  • Retrieving and synthesizing information from internal systems, correspondence, and meeting notes to draft clear, concise summaries, reports, or briefings.
  • Overseeing the preparation of executive-ready materials including agendas, presentations, expense reports, and sensitive documents.
  • Supporting meeting operations by preparing materials, coordinating logistics, recording minutes, and tracking follow-ups.
  • Playing a key role in supporting department and company-wide events, from logistics coordination to on-site setup.
  • Actively contributing to the broader Boom support team—sharing knowledge, improving workflows, and fostering collaboration across departments.
  • Help maintain a welcoming and well-stocked kitchen, ensuring snacks and supplies are regularly refreshed for the team. Light kitchen organization and tidying are included—helping keep the heart of the office running smoothly and creating a positive daily experience for everyone.

The Ideal Candidate

  • Experience supporting executives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment—managing complex calendars, coordinating travel, and handling confidential communications with precision.
  • Exceptionally detail-oriented and resourceful, with a proven ability to anticipate needs, follow through on tasks, and deliver high-quality results with minimal oversight.
  • Strong communicator and cross-functional collaborator who thrives in team-oriented environments and brings clarity and efficiency to fast-moving projects.
  • Tech-savvy, with advanced proficiency in Google Workspace and Microsoft Office, and comfortable working with different platform technologies, including AI, to support team and executive needs.
  • Brings energy, professionalism, and a startup mindset—comfortable wearing multiple hats, adapting quickly, and contributing meaningfully to evolving team needs.

What Will Set You Apart

  • Demonstrated experience supporting senior executives in a high-growth, engineering- or technology-driven environment, with the ability to stay several steps ahead and manage shifting priorities with ease.
  • A track record of improving team efficiency—whether through building admin processes, optimizing workflows, or introducing tools that reduce friction and boost productivity.
  • Strong executive presence and communication skills, with the ability to draft polished correspondence, represent leadership with professionalism, and maintain discretion with sensitive information.
  • Comfort and fluency working across multiple tech platforms (Slack, Concur, Zoom, etc.) and a natural curiosity to explore and adopt new tools that improve support operations.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
