About this role
About AIUC
AIUC builds standards and insurance for frontier AI. Our mission is to Underwrite superintelligence. We exist because risk, not capability, is becoming the binding constraint on AI being useful. History offers lessons for how to build confidence in new technology; electricity burned down houses until insurers funded Underwriters Laboratories (UL) to certify products against their standards. Today, the UL mark is a trustmark on every light bulb in America. We’re building that for AI.
AIUC-1, our standard for agent security, serves frontier builders like Cursor, Lovable, ElevenLabs, and Harvey. We've raised $55m from Ribbit, First Harmonic and Nat Friedman to audit frontier AI. Our team comes from METR, Anthropic, McKinsey, and OpenAI. Come join us.
The Role
We're hiring an Executive Assistant to partner closely with AIUC's cofounders. This is a high-trust role for someone who anticipates needs, solves problems quickly, and ensures nothing falls through the cracks.
You'll support the founders across both professional and personal priorities, owning everything from complex scheduling and travel to special projects, events, and day-to-day logistics. In return, you'll gain a front-row seat to building one of the world's most ambitious AI companies and learn firsthand how a category-defining startup is built.
This role is ideal for someone who is exceptionally organized, dependable, and excited by the opportunity to work alongside experienced founders.
In this role, you will:
Own complex calendar management across two cofounders, balancing evolving professional and personal priorities
Coordinate travel, expenses, appointments, errands, and day-to-day logistics with exceptional attention to detail
Manage executive inboxes, draft and triage communications, and ensure important follow-ups never slip through the cracks
Organize founder dinners, company events, and other high-impact moments with end-to-end ownership
Anticipate needs before they arise, creating leverage for the founders by proactively solving problems and removing operational friction
Improve how the founders operate by streamlining workflows, automating repetitive tasks, and leveraging AI tools where appropriate
Assist with other operational endeavors, as arise in a high-growth start-up environment
What we're looking for
3–7 years of experience supporting senior leaders or operating in high-performance environments, ideally in consulting, legal, VC/PE, technology, or similar fields
Exceptional organizational skills with meticulous attention to detail and a reputation for flawless execution
Strong written and verbal communication skills with the judgment to represent the founders professionally
High ownership and reliability; you take initiative, move quickly, follow through, and can be trusted with sensitive information
Strong professional judgment and polish when interacting with executives, customers, investors, and partners
Comfortable switching between strategic priorities and highly tactical work; no task is beneath you
Comfortable using AI tools such as ChatGPT or Claude to improve speed and efficiency
Excited to work in person five days a week with flexibility beyond traditional office hours when needed
Nice to have
Previous experience supporting founders or C-level executives at a startup
Experience planning events, offsites, or executive travel
Interest in AI, startups, and emerging technology
Experience building systems and processes that improve operational efficiency
