About the Role

SambaNova is hiring an Executive Assistant to support three senior leaders spanning Engineering, G&A (General & Administrative), and Sales. This is a high-trust, high-visibility role for someone who can manage competing priorities across very different functions, keep each leader's calendar and workload running smoothly, and act as a dependable point of coordination between their teams. The ideal candidate is highly organized, discreet, and comfortable operating in a fast-moving, high-growth environment where priorities shift quickly.

Calendar & Time Management

Proactively manage complex, high-volume calendars for three executives across Engineering, G&A, and Sales, resolving scheduling conflicts and prioritizing time against each leader's most pressing commitments.
Schedule and coordinate internal and external meetings, all-hands, offsites, and cross-functional reviews, including logistics, agendas, and pre-read materials.
Anticipate scheduling needs across time zones and adjust proactively as priorities shift.

Travel & Expenses

Book and manage domestic and international travel itineraries, adapting quickly to last-minute changes.
Prepare, submit, and reconcile expense reports in a timely manner and in compliance with company policy.

Exercise sound judgment and discretion when handling confidential and sensitive information across engineering, financial, and sales matters.

Meeting & Event Support

Coordinate department meetings, leadership reviews, and team events, including logistics, catering, and materials.
Help plan and execute larger organizational events (team offsites, department all-hands) in partnership with other EAs and business partners.

Cross-Functional Operations

Partner with other Executive Assistants and business teams to align on shared processes, coverage during absences, and event coordination.
Support light project coordination and ad hoc initiatives for each leader, such as tracking OKRs, org planning logistics, or budget documentation.
Process purchase orders, invoices, and vendor requests as needed for each supported organization.

Strong discretion and professionalism when handling confidential business, personnel, and financial information.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-growth technology company where priorities can change quickly.
Strong organizational skills and follow-through; able to manage multiple workstreams and deadlines independently.
