Company/Client Overview

The company provides the infrastructure that allows software platforms to embed payroll directly into their products

We work with HR tools, gig marketplaces, and vertical SaaS companies helping them launch payroll as a feature that drives revenue and deepens customer engagement, without having to build it from scratch.

Our APIs and tools handle the hard parts—taxes, payments, compliance, and filings - so our customers can focus on growing their business and monetizing payroll.

We’re a fast-growing, Series A startup backed by top investors, with a remote-first team across the U.S. and Europe. We move quickly, care deeply, and take ownership of our work. Every person at the company has a real impact on our growth and the success of the companies we serve

Duties And Responsibilities

This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in fast-paced, founder-led environments and can anticipate needs before they arise.

You’ll become Juan’s right hand, helping him stay focused on strategic priorities by managing his schedule, inbox, travel, and day-to-day business and personal logistics.

If you love solving problems, making things run smoother, and being a force multiplier, this is for you.

Key responsibilities

Calendar & Inbox Ownership

  • Own and optimize Juan’s calendar with a focus on maximizing productivity and throughput.
  • Proactively manage scheduling—building in buffer time, minimizing context switching, and solving for high-impact use of time.
  • Flag overload risks early and propose solutions (e.g., rescheduling, delegation, or time-blocking for focused work).
  • Coordinate time-zone-sensitive meetings with internal and external stakeholders across the U.S. and Europe.
  • Triage and organize Juan’s inbox: surface urgent items, filter out noise, and help drive toward Inbox Zero (or as close as realistically possible).

Travel & Logistics

  • Plan international and domestic travel with full itineraries (flights, hotels, transport, gyms, coworking spaces).
  • Think ahead: anticipate logistical challenges (weather, local transit, seasonal delays).

Personal Support

  • Book/manage personal appointments (doctor, dentist, trainer).
  • Assist with personal tasks like home utility management, special occasion planning, and seasonal errands.

Team & Ops Admin

  • Support employee onboarding/offboarding (hardware orders, access setup, meeting coordination).
  • Manage EU contractor payroll timelines (currency conversions, monthly deadlines).
  • Keep the internal employee database and Notion documentation up to date.
  • Coordinate internal and external meetings (Board meetings, All Hands, team spotlights).
  • Onboarding new team processes

Tools You’ll Use

  • GSuite (calendar and email), Slack, Notion, Zoom, Ramp, Linear, Secureframe, HR tools (Deel, JustWorks).

Minimum Requirements

Language requirement: Excellent English Communication Skills (Bi-lingual in Spanish is a plus) accent is acceptable

Education: Bachelor's Degree (ideally)

Experience: 2+ years of related experience

  • 2+ years as an Executive Assistant supporting a founder or C-level leader (US startup or fast-growth company experience preferred).
  • Exceptional written and spoken English (business-level and up).
  • Proactive and ownership-driven: You solve problems before they become problems.
  • Highly organized, with strong attention to detail and follow-through.
  • Tech-savvy and resourceful: Comfortable working with new SaaS tools, learning systems quickly, and figuring things out independently.
  • Quick learner: You’re curious, adaptable, and eager to learn new tools and processes as we grow.
  • Direct, concise communicator who’s not afraid to ask clarifying questions.
  • Comfortable working across business and personal domains.
  • Bonus: Experience working in a fully remote, async-friendly team across multiple time zones.
  • Nice to have: Ability to communicate in Spanish
  • Mandatory: AI-friendly, open to using AI tools (like ChatGPT) to draft, summarize, research, and speed up workflows.

What you'll get

  • A front-row seat at a fast-scaling, venture-backed startup solving complex and meaningful infrastructure challenges in the payroll space.
  • A close working relationship with the company’s CTO and Co-founder—supporting technical leadership, product direction, and cross-functional collaboration across the company.
  • High ownership and trust: You won’t just manage logistics—you’ll help optimize how engineering leadership spends time, solves problems, and drives execution.
  • Exposure to startup leadership, product and engineering strategy, and key operational decision-making.
  • Professional growth and learning opportunities in a highly technical and fast-paced environment.
  • Flexibility to work remotely from anywhere in LATAM, with a distributed, high-performance team.
  • The chance to make a visible, daily impact on the company’s trajectory—and help build critical infrastructure that’s reshaping how people get paid.
