Role
Who you are
- You’re naturally organized, adaptable, and quick to learn. You take pride in handling details others overlook, and you thrive in an environment where initiative and reliability are key
- Fluency in Russian is essential, as you’ll coordinate both business and family-related matters
- Strong organizational and prioritization skills, with a natural ability to bring order to complexity
- Fluent communication in Russian and English, both written and verbal
- A proactive, self-starting mindset: you don’t wait for instructions — you anticipate needs and act quickly
- Resourcefulness: you can figure things out, whether it’s troubleshooting a system, booking the right vendor, or managing an unexpected issue
- High attention to detail and pride in delivering quality work
- Tech-savvy: comfortable with Google Workspace, Apple products, and digital productivity tools (Notion, task managers, etc.)
- Discretion and reliability: able to handle sensitive information with confidentiality and professionalism
- Adaptability and humility: equally comfortable managing errands, coordinating with executives, or solving hands-on problems
- Curiosity and growth mindset: eager to learn how a fast-scaling tech company operates and how to create more leverage every day
- Local presence: based within 15–20 minutes of Palo Alto, available for in-person coordination several times a week
- Nice to have: Experience managing projects, logistics, or events — whether through internships, part-time roles, student organizations, or side projects
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a high-potential Personal Assistant to support the CEO of Manychat in Palo Alto, CA
- This is a unique opportunity for a smart, resourceful, and proactive graduate or early-career professional who’s excited to learn directly from a founder while taking real ownership of execution across personal and professional priorities
- You’ll work side-by-side with the CEO, helping him stay focused on high-impact decisions by managing all operational, personal, and logistical details with precision and care. From scheduling and research to coordinating household projects and handling day-to-day tasks, you’ll be the person who makes things happen
- The role is based locally in Palo Alto (within 15–20 minutes) and combines remote coordination with regular in-person interactions
- Protect the CEO’s focus — taking ownership of logistics, errands, and coordination so his attention stays on strategic priorities
- Manage scheduling and communications, ensuring seamless organization across professional and personal calendars
- Coordinate projects and vendors — from contractors and household services to travel logistics and event planning
- Handle daily operations such as booking appointments, arranging meetings, managing deliveries, or researching services
- Oversee household and family logistics, including scheduling childcare support, home maintenance, and errands
- Plan and support events, from dinners and gatherings to small networking or social occasions
- Keep everything documented — maintaining clarity across tasks, contacts, and ongoing workflows for smooth continuity
- Continuously look for leverage: propose improvements, automations, or new ways to save time and streamline operations
Our take
Over 80% of businesses currently use chatbots to provide a variety of automated services to customers. However, chatbots are generally uniform and provide standardized responses, unless the business staffs a chatbot programmer.
ManyChat provides a platform for the creation of customized chatbots without needing any experience in coding. The startup focuses on providing small businesses opportunities to equip the messaging services of their Facebook and Instagram business pages with automotive customer service tools.
The company has grown a huge customer base of over a million businesses, powering more than a billion conversations each year. Though there is tough competition in this field, including new AI chatbots arriving on the market, ManyChat's focus on ease of use and code-free customization will likely ensure its ongoing popularity.
