As a member of the technology team, the Executive Assistant will play a critical role in supporting the CTO and technology leadership in day-to-day operations, strategic planning, and project coordination.

• Support procurement of software, hardware, and SaaS tools; maintain vendor contacts and renewal calendars.

• Prepare internal reports on OKRs, engineering milestones, and vendor SLAs.

• Help enforce cross-team process consistency by coordinating checklists, approvals, and compliance requirements.

• Manage multiple projects and track progress in multiple workstreams.

• Shadow project managers and engineers to understand workflows and begin taking ownership of tactical initiatives.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

• 3+ years of experience in an executive assistant support C-Suite, project coordinator, or technical support role.

• Strong interest in IT systems, software development, or technical operations.

• Exceptional organizational and time management skills, with a strong bias toward action.

• Advanced skills using tools such as Google Workspace, Slack, Asana, Notion, and Excel; familiarity with project tools like JIRA, Confluence, or ClickUp a plus.

• Proficient in project management tools and software (e.g., Smart sheets, Jira, Trello, Monday, etc) to streamline processes, enhance collaboration, and deliver successful project outcomes.

• Strong analytical mindset with a focus on measuring outcomes and driving continuous improvement.

• Ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including technical writing.

• Comfortable interacting with engineers, IT administrators, vendors, and executives.

• Highly resourceful, proactive, and eager to learn new technologies and systems.

• Strong work ethics and integrity

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Experience supporting technical departments (IT, DevOps, Engineering, Data).

• Familiarity with agile methodologies, product lifecycles, or change management.

• Exposure to IT asset management, access provisioning, or vendor onboarding.

• Interest in developing into a project management, technical program management, or systems operations role.

• Project Management Certification (PMP) preferred
