CareersOffice of the Founder
Executive Assistant
- Compensation
- $120,000 – $180,000 base salary, plus equity
- Location
- Newport Beach, California. In person, three to four days a week.
- Employer
- The Digital Sciences Corporation
This is not an administrative role that we have priced generously. It is a leverage role. One person doing this exceptionally well is worth more to this company than several people doing it adequately, and the pay reflects that.
You would work directly with the founder across every business under DSCO, with real access and real authority to make decisions on his behalf.
The work
- Own the calendar as a strategic instrument — what gets time, what gets declined, what gets moved.
- Run inbox, travel, vendors, contracts, and the long tail of things that otherwise consume a founder's week.
- Take projects to completion independently. The measure of this role is how often you close something without it coming back.
- Handle confidential legal, financial, and personal matters with absolute discretion.
What we look for
- Experience supporting a founder or executive in a fast-moving company, ideally one without much process to lean on.
- Anticipation. The difference between a good EA and an exceptional one is how many problems never reach the person you support.
- Fluency with modern tooling, including AI tools. A large part of this job should be automated, and we would like you to be the one who automates it.
- Discretion that does not need to be explained.
