Executive Assistant to the CEO

Pallet•San Francisco, CA

40d•$150,000 - $200,000•Onsite

About The Position

Pallet's CEO runs 8–12 meetings a day, manages several direct reports, and is constantly moving between customers, investors, and the team. We're looking for an Executive Assistant who gives him real leverage: someone who owns his calendar, inbox, and follow-through so nothing that matters ever falls through the cracks. You'll sit close to the center of the company, see how every major initiative gets built, and be trusted with real judgment calls, not just logistics.

Requirements

8+ years of experience
Prior experience supporting a founder, CEO, or other executive with a high daily meeting volume
A track record of closing open loops without being asked twice. You treat scheduling as an owned outcome, not administrative throughput
Sharp attention to detail with calendars, time zones, and travel logistics, especially under volume
Comfortable making judgment calls about competing priorities and protecting an executive's time
Experience coordinating complex, multi-leg travel, including handling changes and cancellations in real time
Able to work in person in Pallet's San Francisco office five days a week

Responsibilities

Own Sushanth's calendar end-to-end: strategic weekly planning, not just reactive scheduling
Manage and triage his inbox, drafting responses and closing loops on his behalf
Book and manage complex domestic and international travel, including live re-routing when plans change
Chase customer, candidate, and investor threads to a confirmed close. Nothing sits unanswered
Prepare meeting materials and pre-reads for external meetings and board sessions
Take on discrete strategic projects directly for the CEO as they come up
