Executive Assistant

Job description

ABOUT FLUIDSTACK We exist to make humanity more free. For most of human history, you farmed or you starved. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who don't share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it. We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them - with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators. Come be a part of building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI. We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply! ABOUT THE PEOPLE TEAM The People team at Fluidstack exists to support our mission of building the world’s best place to do your life’s best work. We design and operate the systems, environments, and partnerships that allow talented people to focus on meaningful problems. Our work spans from the infrastructure that keeps the organization running cleanly, to the lifecycle moments that shape employee experience, to the support that helps managers and leaders do their best work. We care deeply about how things happen, not just whether they happen. WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS Fluidstack’s leadership team is growing, and so is the coordination overhead that comes with it. This role exists to give executives back the bandwidth currently absorbed by scheduling, logistics, and communication triage, so they can focus on the decisions that matter most. ABOUT THE ROLE You will provide high-leverage, thoughtful support to Fluidstack leadership by owning calendar management, travel logistics, meeting preparation, and communication triage. The goal is to free up executive bandwidth currently absorbed by coordination work and to do it with the kind of care and attention that makes leaders genuinely more effective. This is a shared-services model with dedicated coverage at the exec level. You will work closely with other EAs to ensure continuity and coverage across the leadership team. The best EA teams nurture each other; we expect the same here. The role is not administrative busywork. You’re a force multiplier: anticipating needs, removing friction, and ensuring executives spend their time on the work that matters most. WHAT YOU WILL DO FIRST 30 DAYS - Complete onboarding and shadow your assigned executive(s) to understand priorities, preferences, and communication style. - Take over calendar management: learn recurring commitments, meeting cadences, and scheduling principles. - Map the executive’s key relationships and recurring touchpoints so you can start anticipating needs. - Establish a working rhythm with your executive(s): how you communicate, what requires approval vs. what you can handle independently. BY 60 DAYS - Own all scheduling, travel, and logistics end-to-end with minimal oversight. - Coordinate with other EAs to ensure coverage, prevent conflicts, and share institutional knowledge. - Begin managing meeting preparation: agendas, pre-reads, follow-up actions. - Proactively flag scheduling conflicts, overloaded weeks, or gaps in the calendar before they become problems. BY 90 DAYS - Your executive trusts you to manage their time and logistics without hand-holding. - You have a clear system for prioritization, communication triage, and escalation. - You’ve identified at least one process or system improvement that makes the EA function more effective across the team. WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR - Intense curiosity about how leaders work and what makes them most effective. - Kindness and thoughtfulness in how you interact with everyone: executives, their teams, and external partners alike. - Clarity, approachability, and precision in communication. When you send a message on behalf of an executive, it reflects their voice and standards. - Deep care about the craft of support work. You take pride in the quality of what you do, even when no one sees it. - You have supported senior leaders before and understand what it means to manage someone’s time as carefully as they would themselves. - You exercise judgment about what matters, what can wait, and what to escalate. You don’t treat every request as equal priority. - You’re highly organized and reliable. Things don’t slip through the cracks. - Demonstrated experience in executive support. We’re not looking for a specific number of years, we’re looking for evidence that you’ve done this well. - We welcome candidates from operations, customer success, event management, chief of staff roles, or any background where managing complex logistics and stakeholder priorities were core to the work. YOU’LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU - Care about how things happen. The how is as important as the why. You easily ascertain how things ended up where they are and effectively plan how to move forward. - Enjoy anticipating needs. You find genuine satisfaction in solving a problem before someone knows they had one. - Care about the human. You’re supporting leaders, but you never forget they’re people first. - Want to make something really great. The bar is high, but so too is the opportunity to make a real difference in how this company operates. WHAT ADDITIVE VALUE LOOKS LIKE - Experience supporting C-suite or founders at a growth-stage company. - Comfort working across time zones and with distributed teams. - A track record of building EA systems (templates, SOPs, coordination tools) that scale beyond individual relationships. SALARY & BENEFITS - Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity). - Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms. - Health, dental, and vision insurance. - Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms. We are committed to pay equity and transparency. Fluidstack is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer.
