We are looking for an Executive Assistant to join our Engineering team. You will provide high-level administrative and strategic support to two Vice Presidents of Engineering.

  • Meeting Coordination: Organize and prepare meetings with appropriate attention to detail and confidentiality , including agenda creation, note-taking, and follow-ups.
  • Travel & Expense Management: Arrange domestic and international travel and process expense reports in a timely manner.
  • Communication & Correspondence: Act as a gatekeeper, manage internal and external communications, and draft emails on behalf of executives.
  • Project Management: Assist in the execution of key projects, track deadlines, and ensure follow-ups are completed.
  • Event Planning: Coordinate team offsites, celebrations, team-events, company-wide events, and executive engagements.
  • Process Improvement: Identify and implement efficiency improvements in administrative processes.
