Job Description

About Us

Foundation is developing the future of general purpose robotics with the goal to address the labor shortage.

Our mission is to create advanced robots that can operate in complex environments, reducing human risk in conflict zones and enhancing efficiency in labor-intensive industries. Your previous experience in robotics isn't a prerequisite — it's your talent and determination that truly count.

We expect that many of our team members will bring diverse perspectives from various industries and fields.

We are looking for individuals with a proven record of exceptional ability and a history of creating things that work.

Our Culture

We like to be frank and honest about who we are, so that people can decide for themselves if this is a culture they resonate with. Please read more about our culture here

Who should join:

You like working in-person with a team in San Francisco.

You want to work 7 days a week.

You deeply believe that this is the most important mission for humanity and needs to happen yesterday.

You are highly technical - regardless of the role you are in. We are building technology; you need to understand technology well.

You care about aesthetics and design inside out. If it's not the best product ever, it bothers you, and you need to “fix” it.

You don't need someone to motivate you; you get things done.

We are seeking a highly organized, proactive, and discreet Personal Assistant to support the CEO of Foundation. This role involves managing complex travel arrangements, calendar coordination, and handling various personal and professional errands—including caring for the CEO's dog. The ideal candidate is resourceful, trustworthy, and thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

Why We Are Hiring for This Role:

  • Coordinate and maintain the CEO’s calendar, appointments, and meetings (both business and personal).
  • Proactively anticipate scheduling conflicts and plan solutions in advance.
  • Arrange domestic and international travel, including flights, hotels, ground transportation, and itineraries.
  • Handle last-minute changes and ensure seamless travel experiences.
  • Run errands such as dry cleaning, grocery shopping, returns/exchanges, and managing home-related vendors.
  • Oversee appointments (e.g., medical, personal care, home maintenance) as needed.
  • Coordinate dog walking, grooming appointments, veterinary visits, and pet-sitting services as needed.
  • Occasionally assist with direct dog care (e.g., walks, feeding, transport to appointments).
  • Assist with light personal and professional correspondence.
  • Maintain confidentiality and handle sensitive information with discretion.

What Kind of Person We Are Looking For:

  • You live in San Francisco (requirement)
  • Proven experience as a personal assistant, executive assistant, or similar role.
  • Strong organizational and time management skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication.
  • Tech-savvy: comfortable with calendar apps, travel booking tools, and mobile productivity tools.
  • Flexible and adaptable; able to work outside traditional business hours as needed.
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.
  • Must love dogs and be comfortable around pets.
  • Previous experience supporting a C-level executive.
  • Ability to anticipate needs and act with minimal direction.

Benefits:

We provide market standard benefits (health, vision, dental, 401k, etc.). Join us for the culture and the mission, not for the benefits.

Salary :

$95,000-$120,000
