We’re hiring a Right Hand to a Founder (Executive Assistant / Founder Ops + Finance)
I’m looking for a high-slope, high-integrity Executive Assistant / Founder Operations hire to work directly with me across multiple ventures , with a primary focus on Wild West Systems , a U.S.-based defense technology startup operating in a regulated, high-stakes environment.
This role is designed to be a true right-hand position — sitting at the center of executive decision-making, scheduling, communications, finance coordination, and execution across companies.
This is not a traditional EA role.
It is intense, high-trust, and high-impact.
If you want a calm, predictable 9–5 job, this isn’t it.
If you want to learn how serious companies are built from the inside — and grow into a senior operations role over time — keep reading.
