Job Description - Founder's Office

We are hiring one
person to run the Founder’s Office at a seed-stage deep-tech
startup building hardware infrastructure for the space
industry. This is not a management or strategy position.


It
is a high-agency, high-execution role where you work
directly with the CEO to keep the company moving fast across
every non-technical front. You are the operational backbone
that lets the founding team focus on building the
product.


If the CEO is in a
lab review, you are the person making sure the vendor
shipment is tracked, the investor update draft is ready, the
next hire’s interview is scheduled, and the board pre-read
is being assembled. You do not wait to be told. You see the
gap and you fill it.

WHAT YOU WILL
DO


   •       AI-augmented
execution:
Use Claude and
other AI tools daily as a force multiplier for drafting,
research, data structuring, and analysis. This is not
optional -- it is core to how this role operates.


   •       Investor
relations execution:
Own the monthly
update cadence. Chase inputs, pull financial data, draft
updates, send individually addressed emails, track
follow-ups.


      Procurement and
vendor coordination:
Track POs,
shipping, customs, delivery timelines across international
suppliers. Escalate blockers before anyone asks.


      Meeting prep and
follow-through:
Assemble pre-reads,
prepare talking points, capture action items, chase every
item to closure for board, partner, and media
meetings.


      Hiring pipeline: Screen resumes,
coordinate interviews, run reference checks, manage offer
logistics. You make the hiring process fast and
friction-free.


      Finance and
compliance ops:
Coordinate with the
CA on GST, payroll, banking. Keep MIS current. Handle
filings and regulatory paperwork.




Requirements

WHO YOU
ARE

PROFILE
A: OPERATOR

1–3 years
in ops, consulting, or a high-growth
startup.

You have shipped
real work: managed vendor pipelines, run
investor comms, coordinated cross-functional
execution.
Slow environments make you
restless.

PROFILE
B: BUILDER

A sharp, high-energy fresh graduate with genuine
enthusiasm for deep-tech.

You may lack years
of experience, but you have built
things -- side projects, college
orgs, freelance work -- and you move
fast with minimal hand-holding.

Regardless of
profile, you must be:

      High-agency. You
identify problems and solve them without waiting for
permission or a roadmap.

      Relentless on
follow-through. Nothing falls through the cracks on your
watch.

      A strong written
communicator. Investor emails, vendor follow-ups, board
pre-reads -- clear and concise.

      Comfortable with
ambiguity. Processes do not exist yet. You build
them.

      Fluent with AI
tools (especially Claude). You use them daily to
draft, research, analyze, and move faster.

      Genuinely
interested in deep-tech, space, or hardware. No
physics degree needed, but you should care

WHAT THIS ROLE
IS NOT

      Not a strategy or
management consulting engagement. You execute, not
advise.

      Not a personal
assistant or calendar manager. You own outcomes, not
schedules.

      You are a force
multiplier for the founder.
