Technical Executive Associate to the CTO, ExTrac

• We're seeking a Technical Executive Associate to work with our CTO in optimising how our engineering organisation operates. This is not a traditional administrative role. The right person will be a strategic operator who thrives in high-growth environments, speaks the language of technology teams, and brings order to ambiguity.
• Proven experience (5+ years) supporting C-level technology executives in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
• Strong technical fluency - you understand software development lifecycles, Agile/Scrum, and can navigate conversations about product roadmaps, system architecture, and engineering priorities.
• Exceptional calendar and stakeholder management across multiple time zones.
• Advanced proficiency in productivity and collaboration tools: Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, Linear.
• Outstanding written and verbal communication - you can draft executive communications, prepare board materials, and represent the CTO's office with clarity and professionalism.
• Track record of handling sensitive information with absolute discretion.
• Comfortable operating with high autonomy and minimal direction - you anticipate needs before they arise.

Desirable

• This role sits at the intersection of technical understanding and executive support. You will be the CTO's force multiplier - creating space for strategic work, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks, and acting as a trusted liaison across the organisation. You'll help create visibility across concurrent engineering projects, identify where attention is needed the most and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
• Executive Support:
• Manage the CTO's calendar optimising for time allocation across priorities, ensuring every meeting has purpose and every commitment is tracked.

• Prepare briefing materials for board meetings, investor presentations, and technical reviews.
• Developer Experience Ownership:
• Own developer experience (DevX) initiatives, including surveys and improvement tracking.
• Maintain documentation, wikis, and knowledge bases for the technology organisation.
• Support off-boarding processes and other operational workflows.
• Cross-functional coordination:
• Coordinate cross-functional projects between engineering, product, research, and commercial teams.
• Create dashboards and reports to surface KPIs, project status, and team metrics.
• Act as liaison between engineering and other teams (product, research, commercial) to support and unblock dependencies on deliverables and report on progress.
• Build and maintain documentation, wikis, and knowledge bases for the technology organisation.
• Plan and execute engineering team events, off-sites, and all-hands meetings.
• Collaborate closely with Product, Research, and Data - ensuring the CTO has visibility into what matters most.
