Founder's Office Generalist

This is a Founders Office role, not a support role.

You will work inside the Founders Office of a fast-growing AI-augmented services company. Its clients include unicorns, global enterprise brands, and billion-dollar data platforms. You will work closely with the CEO, the Chief of Staff, and the rest of the Founders Office team.

Your job: turn intent into outcomes.

A conversation becomes a decision. A decision gets an owner. The owner gets a deadline. The deadline gets followed up. The work gets done.

You will use AI heavily to move faster than a normal operator can.

The Trade

What you give

• Six days a week. You work either Saturday or Sunday. The team covers seven days between us. Hours are flexible; the work does not stop on Friday.
• Accuracy. A wrong date in a signed contract, or a payment amount that does not match its approval, costs real money here. Catching those is the job.
• Ego. You will get direct feedback often. You are expected to act on it fast.
• Range. In one week you may review three contractor agreements, check a payment batch, run a hiring sprint, rebuild a broken tracker, and prep the CEO for a client call.

What you get

• Direct access to the CEO and the Chief of Staff.
• A front-row seat in how a company is built, sold, hired, and scaled.
• AI as leverage. Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Granola, Cursor, Claude Code, and automation tooling are part of the job.
• Twelve months of exposure that would take years in a normal role.
• A real path to Chief of Staff or a senior operating seat.

What You Will Own

1. Contracts and documents

You are the first pass on everything that goes out and the last check before anything reaches the CEO.

• Service agreements, contractor agreements, SOWs, and NDAs read line by line.
• Dates, names, entity details, payment terms, and clause references checked against what was agreed.
• First drafts built from templates so the CEO edits instead of writes.
• Documents sent for signature and chased until fully executed.
• A running status of every agreement: drafted, sent, awaiting countersignature, executed.

2. The Founders Office operating system

• You run the cadence: daily check-ins, weekly reviews, monthly reporting, decision logs, follow-ups.
• Every meeting has a purpose. Every decision has an owner. Every owner has a deadline.
• You protect the CEO's time and manage comms across email, Slack, WhatsApp, and LinkedIn so signal beats noise.
• An hour of CEO thinking becomes a one-page plan with owners, dates, dependencies, and blockers.

3. The work no one else owns

• Trackers kept current and correct, not mostly current.
• Payment and invoice batches prepared and checked against approved figures before anything goes out.
• Compliance and audit evidence collected, with open items chased to their owners.
• Recruitment coordination: applications sorted, candidates scheduled, nobody left waiting.
• Short research briefs that end in a recommendation, not a pile of links.

4. AI-native execution

You use AI every day to draft, summarise, research, plan, and automate. That part is assumed.

• What matters is what you do with the output. We read AI text all day and we can spot it unedited. It is too long, it states wrong details confidently, and it repeats the question back instead of answering it. If your work looks like it came straight out of a chat window, it will not pass.
• The people who do well here treat the model as a fast first drafter with no accountability. They check what it claims, especially names, dates, numbers, and clause references. They cut what is not needed and rewrite it in their own words. They build small automations between Sheets, Gmail, Calendar, and Slack, or get an AI to write the code and ship it themselves. They can explain every line of what they send.
• You do not wait for someone technical to build the workflow. You figure it out.

Who Thrives Here

• You are fast, precise, discreet, and hard to shake.
• You do not need perfect instructions. You find the path.
• You do not say what should I do You say I found three options, here is the best one.
• You flag problems early. If something will be late, we hear it from you before the deadline, with a new date. Going quiet is the worst thing you can do here.
• You are comfortable with confidential information, direct feedback, high standards, and shifting priorities.
• No task is beneath you. You review a vendor agreement one hour and fix spreadsheet rows the next.

Two Profiles That Fit

1. The senior operator. You have worked beside a Founder, CEO, MD, partner, or C-level executive. You have run complex work, handled sensitive information, and want a real operating seat.
2. The builder. You have worked in startups, consulting, tech, operations, legal ops, or as a founder yourself. You want to learn how a fast-growing company is built by sitting next to the people building it.

Evidence We Look For

At least four of these should describe you:

• You have supported a Founder, CEO, MD, or senior executive directly, not from a shared pool.
• You have reviewed, redlined, or drafted contracts where errors mattered.
• You have owned a cross-functional project from start to finish.
• You have owned a recurring process others depended on: payments, compliance, pipeline, or reporting.
• You have built systems, documentation, or operating infrastructure people used daily.
• You have managed work across three or more time zones.
• You use AI tools daily, not occasionally.
• You have built something real with Apps Script, Zapier, Make, Cursor, or Claude Code.
• You have worked in a fast-growing company.
• You have handled sensitive information without incident.
• You have written external communications under someone else's name.

Do Not Apply If

• You are not based in India or the Philippines.
• You cannot work six days a week including one weekend day.
• You want a predictable 9-to-5 or a fixed schedule.
• You need to be told exactly what to do.
• Your tech skills stop at Microsoft Office.
• You do not use AI tools in your daily work.
• You call yourself detail-oriented but cannot name a specific error you caught in a document that mattered.
• You would send a draft you could not explain line by line.
• You are uncomfortable with direct feedback.
• You think Founders Office means managing diaries and saying yes.
