Executive Assistant

About BioRender

About the Role

What you’ll be doing

Executive Partnership & Operations

• Act as a trusted partner to Ryan: proactively manage his complex calendar and priorities, and be someone he can confidently delegate to knowing things will get done
• Keep Ryan accountable to his commitments: flagging when the plate is too full and pushing back when tradeoffs need to happen
• Own the full scope of EA support: travel, expenses, meeting prep, inbox triage, and the day-to-day admin

Driving Alignment & Follow-Through

• Track action items and key initiatives across leadership meetings
• Be a trusted, credible presence across the team: coordinate and support cross-functional projects, keep the right people aligned, and drive things forward on Ryan's priorities without always needing to pull him in

Process Improvement

• Proactively identify opportunities to streamline operations, improve workflows, and introduce new tools or systems
• Leverage tools (including AI) to increase efficiency in how you and your executive operate

What you bring to the table

• 3–6 years of experience in an Executive Assistant or executive operations role, ideally in a fast-paced or startup environment
• A "no task too small or too big" mindset: you're equally comfortable with the details and with driving bigger initiatives
• First principles thinker: you don't just execute tasks, you understand the "why" behind the work in order to make good decisions in the face of ambiguity
• AI-fluent: you naturally reach for AI tools to find new ways to move faster and work smarter
• Organized, proactive, and emotionally intelligent: you anticipate what's next, exercise sound judgment, and thrive in a fast-moving environment
