Executive Assistant
Oakland, CA Office of the CEO 6 Executive Operations / Full-time / Hybrid
About the role:
You'll be the Executive Assistant to Instrumentl's two co-founders, owning their calendars and the day-to-day that keeps them focused, while keeping our Oakland office running on your in-office days. They're ready to fully hand off scheduling and office logistics, and you'll take that on from the start. There's real room to grow here: as you build trust, the role expands into supporting more of our leadership team. This is a full-time role, and we move fast.
What you'll do:
Calendar & scheduling
- Own the co-founders' calendars, resolving conflicts and protecting focus time without sending decisions back up.
- Coordinate complex scheduling across the leadership team and external parties, always holding a week-plus view.
- Manage silent holds, reprioritize on the fly, and keep both calendars accurate and current.
- Partner with recruiting to schedule candidate interviews quickly and cleanly.
Office coordination (Oakland)
- Run day-to-day office operations on your in-office days: lunches, supplies, packages, and marketing materials.
- Own vendor coordination and keep the office stocked so the team never has to think about it.
- Support on-site logistics for meetings and visitors.
Leadership-level admin & follow-through
- Own follow-through on what the co-founders hand off so nothing slips.
- Prep materials, manage travel and expenses, and run ad hoc projects end to end.
- Grow into broader support across the leadership team as the role expands.
What we're looking for:
Required
- 3+ years as an Executive Assistant supporting senior leaders or founders. You've done this before and don't need training on the basics.
- Excellent at managing complex, shifting calendars across multiple people and time zones.
- Strong follow-through and ownership: what you're handed gets done without reminders.
- Bay Area based and able to be in the Oakland office three days a week.
Nice to have
- Experience as an office coordinator or office manager.
- Comfortable across Google Workspace and Slack.
- Experience supporting more than one executive at once.
Compensation & Benefits
For US-based candidates, the target salary range for this role is $108,000 6 $120,000 base plus equity. Final compensation is determined based on experience, skillset, scope, interview performance, and geographic location. Benefits
- 100% covered health, dental, and vision insurance for employees (50% for dependents)
- Generous PTO, including parental leave
