Job Description

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
  • 401(k)
  • Company laptop and home-office stipend
  • Bi-annual company retreats
