Sr. Executive Assistant

Mysten Labs believes that decentralized and open protocols are the bedrock of the internet of value. This is why at Mysten Labs, we are creating foundational infrastructure to accelerate the adoption of decentralized protocols based on blockchain technologies.

We’re looking for a proactive and resourceful Executive Assistant to support the Head of Engineering at Mysten Labs. This role blends operational execution with contextual understanding — helping coordinate offsites, manage vendors, monitor budgets, and handle high-leverage administrative tasks.

• Offsite Logistics: Plan and execute 3+ engineering offsites per year (Engineering, Product, Research, Partnering). Coordinate venue selection, travel logistics, catering, conference rooms, and social events.

• Vendor Management: Act as point of contact for vendors — from onboarding and billing to price negotiation and coordination with Finance Ops. Maintain clarity and accuracy across dozens of vendor relationships.

• Budget Support: Track infrastructure and tooling expenses, prepare simple reports on spend trends, and collaborate with Finance Ops and engineering leads on forecasting and budgeting.

• Executive Support: Handle a variety of smaller, high-value tasks — scheduling candidate calls, coordinating with partner teams, or gathering context for product or vendor discussions.

• Process Maturity: Over time, learn the structure of teams, projects, and priorities to help organize the time of eng leads more effectively.

• Highly organized and calm under pressure.

• Capable of driving several threads to completion independently.

• Comfortable navigating technical environments and picking up new terminology quickly.

• Communicates clearly and transparently.

• Curious, pragmatic, and confident negotiating with vendors or following up across teams.

• Prior experience supporting executives or operations within a fast-moving tech company is a plus.

Employment is contingent upon the successful completion of a background check, which may include verification of employment history, education credentials, criminal history, and other relevant information.
