Executive Assistant (Mission Execution)

Join Muon, a leading aerospace company, as an Executive Assistant to support the SVP of Mission Execution and the Mission Execution leadership team.

• Expertise in Google Workspace, Slack, Confluence, and Jira; PCs
• Superior organizational skills including excellent written and verbal communication
• Ability to navigate and flourish in a fast-paced, start-up environment where priorities shift with hardware and program milestones
• 5+ years supporting a technical organization in an executive assistant, business operations, program operations, or engineering operations capacity
• Willingness to commute to our Mountain View and San Jose offices at least 3 times per week, and up to 5 days if needed due to business needs
• Demonstrated discretion handling sensitive personnel, customer, and program information
• Strong data and reporting skills: comfortable building and maintaining views in spreadsheets and pulling from multiple systems without hand-holding
• Associates degree required; Bachelor's preferred
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and autonomously, and to close loops without being asked twice
• Experience in aerospace, hardware, or another engineering-driven environment preferred; comfort with technical vocabulary and program terminology
• We encourage you to apply, even if you don't check all the boxes, and we look forward to reviewing your application! In addition, if you need a reasonable accommodation as part of your application for employment or interviews with us, please let us know
