- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Proficiency in office software and tools (e.g., Microsoft Office Suite, Google Workspace)

What the job involves
- This is a hands-on, onsite role at our Mountain View headquarters. As Office Manager, you are the steady force that keeps the office running and the team supported.
- This is an early-start role for someone with high energy who takes pride in being the ultimate support staff member—a doer who keeps things moving day-to-day rather than focusing on high-level strategy. You'll set the tone each morning, anticipate the office's needs before anyone has to ask, and make sure people walk into an organized, ready space
- Office Operations: Manage day-to-day office functions, including supply inventory, mail, office cleaning and organization, and vendor relationships
- Facility Management: Coordinate with building management to address facility-related issues and ensure a safe, clean, and functional workspace
- Administrative Support: Assist with scheduling, meeting coordination, and document preparation across departments
- Event Coordination: Book and coordinate company events, meetings, and team-building activities, handling logistics to execution
- Employee Experience: Support a positive people experience, contribute to a workplace where employees feel welcomed and supported
- Communication: Serve as the point of contact for internal and external communications, ensuring information flows smoothly across the organization
- Confidentiality: Handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion and sound judgement
Our take
From the switch from manual driving to automatic in the 40s, and now the rise of autonomous vehicles (AVs) in the past 5-10 years, cars have come a long way. While much of the attention has focused on consumer-facing self-driving cars, it's often overlooked how many industrial vehicles are now capable of operating, at least in part, without direct driver control.
Cyngn is a well-established company providing autonomous vehicles solutions for these environments. Its DriveMod product is designed to integrate with existing workflows, allowing businesses to introduce automation without major infrastructure changes. Rather than focusing purely on capability, the company emphasizes practical deployment, aiming to deliver systems that can reliably handle real-world industrial tasks.
Cyngn has raised significant funding since its founding in 2009, reflecting both the strength of its technology and continued investor confidence. Alongside partnerships with companies like US Continental and Jtec Industries, the business is still actively securing new capital, with a recent $8.65M raise aimed at supporting further development and scaling its autonomous solutions,. With DriveMod already deployed across vehicles like tuggers and forklifts, Cyngn is positioning itself to capitalize on growing demand from industrial and logistics operators looking to address labor shortages and improve safety through automation.
