Executive Assistant (AI-Driven Operations)

We’re looking for a high-agency, technically capable Executive Assistant who can operate as a true operational partner inside a fast-moving US startup environment.

This role is evolving beyond traditional support. As the business integrates AI more deeply into customer service and internal workflows, you will help shift operations from manual execution to structured, AI-enabled systems. You will support leadership directly while also identifying opportunities to automate, streamline, and improve how work gets done.

This is not a task-only admin role. We are looking for someone who understands US startup pace, thinks like an operator, and can independently drive execution without constant oversight.

This role requires full alignment with EST business hours.

• You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)
• Paid Time Off in accordance with company policy
• Observance of Holidays per company guidelines
• 100% remote setup so you can work wherever you’re most productive
• Direct exposure to US startup leadership
• High-ownership role with real operational impact
• Opportunity to help transition operations toward AI-enabled systems

• Create systems that reduce bottlenecks and unnecessary founder involvement
• Operate with strong judgment in fast-changing situations

Transition and Knowledge Continuity

• Lead knowledge transfer from the current contractor
• Consolidate documentation, workflows, and institutional context

What You Bring

• 3 to 6+ years of experience supporting founders or executives in US startup environments

• Demonstrated experience implementing workflow automations
• Working knowledge of modern AI tools and practical AI use cases in operations
• High agency with the ability to execute independently
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Systems thinker with strong organizational instincts
• Ability to work consistently during EST business hours

Nice to Have

How to Apply

Please include:

1. Your updated resume
2. A short 1 to 2 minute Loom video explaining your experience supporting a founder in a US startup environment and how you have used AI or automation tools to improve operations
