Executive Business Partner

About the Role

We're hiring an Executive Business Partner to support several technical leaders out of our New York office. You will help our team stay focused and organized, managing personal logistics and any tasks that might fall through the cracks. You'll also be the operational lead for our NYC office — coordinating with other locations, planning team events, and managing travel and schedules. 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. As the senior operations person in NYC, this 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
• Own NYC office operations: coordinate with SF, manage local logistics including swag and supplies, plan team events and offsites
• Support recruiting coordination efforts
• Track projects and commitments so nothing falls through the cracks
