There’s traditional executive support here, but GitHub is clearly looking for someone who can operate beyond the calendar. Alongside complex scheduling and travel, this EA will project manage OKRs and monthly business reviews, support onboarding for new leaders, assist with internal communications, and work across Product Leadership, Finance, HR, IT, and more. With 5+ years of experience preferred and a fully remote setup, this is a strong opportunity for an experienced EA who likes being close to the operational side of the business.

Sometimes the simplest job descriptions hide the most interesting opportunities. D. E. Shaw Research is hiring a Generalist Assistant to support members of its Executive Committee, with responsibilities spanning scheduling, events, travel, expenses, and ad hoc research projects. There’s no exhaustive list of requirements or corporate buzzwords here—they’re looking for someone articulate, proactive, resourceful, and comfortable working independently. Add a $115K–$150K base, sign-on and year-end bonuses, generous benefits, and a Mondays and Fridays WFH schedule, and this understated role is absolutely worth a closer look.

If you’ve been wondering what AI actually looks like inside a People team, Headway is giving us a pretty good example. This People Operations Program Manager will build AI-powered workflows and agentic tools for HRBPs, automate employee processes, create org-health dashboards, and partner with Legal and IT on responsible AI guardrails. They want someone with real People Ops experience who is equally comfortable inside an HRIS, building an automation, or figuring out why a workflow isn’t working. It’s a fascinating look at where People Operations may be headed as AI becomes part of the infrastructure rather than just another tool in the stack.

A $130K–$170K salary for an HR Generalist requiring 3–5 years of experience definitely got my attention. Runway is looking for someone to work across the employee lifecycle, from onboarding and HRIS administration to benefits, leave, employee relations, performance reviews, and engagement surveys. What I like most is that they aren’t dressing this up as something it isn’t: they want a capable generalist with good judgment, high emotional intelligence, and the ability to operate independently. For someone who genuinely enjoys the breadth of HR, this feels like an opportunity to do the work at an exciting AI company without needing a highly specialized résumé to get in the door.

This is a Chief of Staff role for someone who wants to build how a company actually runs. Waymark is hiring a Business Operations Director & Chief of Staff to own strategic planning, OKRs, executive operating rhythms, internal communications, and the processes that keep a scaling organization coordinated. You’ll work closely with the CEO and Executive Leadership Team while still getting hands-on with everything from decision frameworks and cross-functional workflows to company meetings and board narratives. Healthcare experience is required, but for the right operator, the scope offers a rare combination of strategy, communications, and company-wide infrastructure.
