This is an operational role focused on keeping leadership focused on customers and product by handling calendars, travel, workspace management, and administrative tasks.
Key Responsibilities:
- Manage calendars for three founders across two time zones, coordinating customer and investor meetings, protecting focus time, and preventing scheduling conflicts

- Support founders' personal needs when relevant to keeping them productive: package returns, visa renewals, personal travel bookings
