What You’ll Do: Founder Operations & Executive Support • Manage complex calendars, meetings, investor/founder calls, and prep materials, • Coordinate travel, events, and logistics for conferences, site visits, and diligence, • Draft briefs, emails, and communication that represent Eagle professionally, • Keep the founders’ time aligned with strategic priorities Project & Systems Management • Build processes, SOPs, reporting, and task-tracking systems from scratch, • Run cross-functional projects end-to-end: scoping → timeline → delivery, • Maintain CRM hygiene, create dashboards, and ensure operational repeatability, • Identify bottlenecks and implement fixes without waiting to be asked Communication & Stakeholder Management • Serve as a polished point of contact for engineering owners, advisors, and investors, • Prepare decks, write summaries, and manage external communications, • Support relationships across prospects, partners, and internal stakeholders Who You Are • Ownership-driven: you spot problems and fix them before being asked, • Systems thinker: you enjoy building structure, clarity, and repeatable processes, • Operational athlete: you can juggle scheduling, projects, documentation, and communication simultaneously, • Direct, warm communicator who can represent founders professionally, • Calm under pressure; resourceful in ambiguous situations, • Excited to join an early team, help shape culture, and grow with the company Experience That Maps Well You may have experience as an Executive Assistant, Chief of Staff, Project Manager, Ops Associate, or similar role in a startup, VC firm, nonprofit, or high-velocity environment. You’ve likely managed fast-moving leaders, built systems, and run critical internal operations. What You’ll Get • Direct access to founders and a hands-on seat in building a company from zero, • Fast learning curve across operations, engineering services, and M&A, • Ownership, autonomy, and visibility into high-impact decision making, • Opportunity to grow into a full-time leadership role as Eagle scales, • Competitive compensation for part-time/hybrid internship-to-hire role
