Executive Assistant (Engineering)

• Ramp is hiring an experienced Executive Assistant to support senior leaders within our Engineering organization
• This role partners closely with the Chief of Staff to the CTO and sits at the center of a large, fast-moving technical organization
• This is not a role for someone learning what a great EA partnership looks like — it’s a role for someone who already knows, and can model it
• Many of the leaders you’ll support are exceptional engineers and first-time managers who are still building the habits, structures, and delegation muscles that make an EA relationship work
• Your job is to meet them where they are and show them what’s possible — proactively shaping how they work with you, building the foundation, and raising the bar for how the org operates
• You don’t need an engineering background
• You do need genuine curiosity about software, a natural comfort in technical environments, and the confidence to operate at a high level alongside people who think in systems, move fast, and expect substance over polish
• This role is based in our New York office in Chelsea
• We default to being in the office at least three days a week
• Please note: candidates may only apply to one Executive Assistant role at this time
• We encourage you to review each posting carefully and apply to the role that best aligns with your experience, interests, and long-term goals
• Partner closely with the Chief of Staff to the CTO to support Engineering leadership across a large, multi-team organization
• Own complex calendar management across multiple Engineering executives, with a strong instinct for protecting time and enabling deep work
• Act as a connective layer across technical programs — tracking deliverables, flagging gaps, and keeping leadership informed without adding overhead
• Actively coach and orient engineering leaders who are new to working with EA support — helping them build the habits and structures that make the partnership work
• Establish clear operating norms with each leader you support: how to delegate, what to hand off, and how to communicate so nothing falls through the cracks
• Coordinate recruiting logistics, candidate pipelines, and interview schedules across high-volume engineering hiring
• Support planning and execution of engineering offsites, all-hands, team events, and leadership working sessions
• Draft and manage communications on behalf of executives including technical team updates and cross-functional alignment
• Manage budgets and spend for engineering leadership events and team programs
• Use AI and automation tools to eliminate repetitive work and create leverage for yourself and your executives
• Serve as backup EA support to the CTO when primary coverage is unavailable

• High EQ and the ability to build trust quickly with people who are skeptical of administrative overhead
• Strong project management instincts — you track what matters, surface the right things at the right time, and know when to push
• Sound judgment and discretion when handling sensitive organizational, hiring, and technical information
• Proven ability to manage complex, high-volume calendars across multiple stakeholders with competing priorities
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and taking full ownership without being asked
• Genuine curiosity about technology and software — you don’t need to write code, but you should find it interesting and feel at home in technical conversations
• Strong proficiency with Google Workspace, Slack, and modern collaboration tools
• Demonstrated use of AI, automation, or tooling to streamline work and create leverage
• Confidence and credibility to work with first-time leaders — you know how to educate upward and shape a working relationship, not just react to one
