Executive Assistant

Meet Arago and the Aragonians Arago is an AI and computer hardware company whose mission is to drive the course of history forward. We do so by accelerating breakthroughs at the intersection of AI and semiconductors. Founded in 2024 by AI researchers and physicists with deep expertise in photonics, electronics, software, mathematics, and machine learning, Arago brings together a lean team of engineers and scientists from the world’s top companies and research labs. Composed of nine nationalities and operating from hubs in France, North America, and Israel, we believe in great science and fast achievements. Our work is guided by these core principles: Do great things: we deliver work we’re proud to sign our name to. High velocity: speed matters. We move quickly, one step at a time. One unit: we’re all in this together, with relationships grounded in trust, respect, and camaraderie. Arago is backed by executives from Apple, Arm, Nvidia, Microsoft, and Hugging Face, as well as prominent US and European deeptech venture firms and exited founders. What You’ll Do Be the right hand to Arago's executives in the Bay Area, owning their day-to-day and making sure the office runs at the pace of the company. The role spans three areas: executive support (calendars, communications, travel, prep work), office management (running our Bay Area office), and supporting the broader growth of the company through coordination across fundraising, recruiting, and partnerships. This is a high-trust seat with real surface area: you'll see everything that matters and have a hand in making it happen. Required Skills And Experience 5+ years supporting senior executives, ideally in fast-moving startups, scale-ups, or top-tier professional services. Proven ability to manage complex multi-timezone calendars and travel across the US, Europe, and Israel. Strong written communication: you can draft a clean email, a partner update, or an investor note in the executive's voice. Tech-fluent: Google Workspace and modern travel and expense tools. A bias for action, and someone who builds a great work environment around them. Some accounting background is a real plus. Responsibilities Own complex multi-timezone calendars across the executive team, including prioritization and conflict resolution. Plan and book international travel (US, Europe, Israel), including itineraries, logistics, and last-minute changes. Track open threads across fundraising, recruiting, press, and partnership workstreams, keeping nothing slips through. Run the Bay Area office: vendors, supplies, IT coordination, visitor experience, and team logistics. Coordinate offsites, board meetings, investor visits, and team events end to end. Build the systems and rituals that let the executive team operate at scale. Pay And Benefits Competitive cash compensation, with final package based on location, experience, and the pay of team members in similar positions. Meaningful stock option plan offered at the earliest stage of the company (included in the majority of full time offers). Relocation bonus and coverage of moving expenses for relocation within 20 minutes of the company’s location. Healthcare coverage (including family-friendly options), pension contributions, professional development support, and 25 days of PTO, in addition to public holidays. Ownership of a key technical domain, with significant vertical and/or horizontal growth opportunities, based on performance and individual drive. Reimbursement of 50% of the public transport subscription fee. A high-paced, multicultural (with 10 nationalities), and engineering-led environment. #J-18808-Ljbffr Arago
