As the Executive Assistant, you will be the primary point of contact for the EVP's office, working across leadership, the wider executive administrative community, employees, customers, and external partners. Prior experience supporting an executive inside a large, matrixed, global technology company is essential.
LOCATION: Candidates based in San Diego, CA are welcome to apply. This is a hybrid role, requiring both onsite work in San Diego as well as travel, up to 25% of time. Onboarding for new hires is conducted in-person in our Los Altos, CA office.

What you will do:
  • Own sophisticated calendar management for the EVP, prioritizing inquiries and requests, resolving conflicts, and making judgment calls on what gets time and what doesn't.
  • Manage complex domestic and international travel end to end, including last-minute changes, and keep stakeholders informed when plans shift.
  • Prepare and edit correspondence, briefing materials, reports, and presentations, ensuring accuracy and professionalism in everything that leaves the EVP's office.

  • Coordinate and facilitate leadership meetings, offsites, customer visits, and team events, including logistics, agenda preparation, and follow-up on action items.
  • Complete a broad range of administrative work, including expense reports, contact lists, purchase requests, and organizational documentation.
  • Build a working understanding of the business so you can anticipate what the EVP needs before being asked and support strategic initiatives rather than only reacting to them.
  • Partner with executive assistants across the company to align on coverage, share practices, and keep support consistent for cross-functional meetings and travel.
  • Maintain confidential files and records with full attention to data integrity and security.
  • Handle confidential and sensitive information with the highest level of discretion and integrity.

What you bring to the table:
  • Proven experience supporting a senior executive inside a large enterprise technology company, with a track record of operating effectively in a matrixed environment.
  • Sound judgment about priority and access. You can tell the difference between urgent and loud, and you protect the EVP's time accordingly.
  • Strong written and verbal communication, with the ability to work confidently with people at every level, internally and externally.
  • Proficiency in Google Workspace and Microsoft 365, and comfort picking up new tools quickly.
  • The ability to work independently with minimal supervision while functioning effectively as part of a team.
  • Demonstrated professionalism, confidentiality, and discretion in handling sensitive information.
  • Resilience and composure under pressure, and a sense of urgency when it matters.
  • Flexibility to work outside of regular business hours when necessary, including across time zones.

What Modular brings to the table:
  • Amazing Team. We are a progressive and agile team with some of the industry’s best engineering and product leaders.
