About the Role

We're hiring an Executive Business Partner to support several technical leaders out of our San Francisco office. You will help our team stay focused and organized, managing personal logistics and any tasks that might fall through the cracks. 

This is a non-traditional EA role, requiring creativity in adapting to different people’s work styles and the new challenges that emerge at a fast-moving startup. The role entails real autonomy in making decisions without tight supervision.

What You’ll Do

  • Manage calendars, schedule meetings, and coordinate travel for 3-4 technical leaders
  • Serve as the primary point of contact between your supported leaders and the rest of the company
  • Support recruiting coordination efforts
  • Track projects and commitments so nothing falls through the cracks

Skills and Qualifications

Minimum qualifications:

  • 4+ years of executive or administrative support experience, ideally in AI labs or tech startups
  • Track record of supporting technical leaders such as engineers or researchers

Preferred qualifications:

  • Track record supporting a diverse team, adapting assistance and communication styles to individual needs
  • Experience managing a satellite office and coordinating across time zones
  • Experience adapting to a fast-changing role and meeting challenges proactively
  • Proven professionalism and discretion with sensitive or personal information
  • Having followed an executive to a new company

Logistics

  • Location: This role is based in San Francisco, CA.
  • Compensation: Depending on background, skills and experience, the expected annual salary range for this position is $200,000 - $250,000 USD.
  • Visa sponsorship: We sponsor visas. While we can't guarantee success for every candidate or role, if you're the right fit, we're committed to working through the visa process together.
  • Benefits: Thinking Machines offers generous health, dental, and vision benefits, unlimited PTO, paid parental leave, and relocation support as needed.
