  • Provide administrative support to the global Partnerships leader and, as the organization grows, other senior Revenue leaders.
  • Coordinate meetings with customers, partners, executives, and other strategic stakeholders.
  • Build strong relationships across Revenue, Finance, People, Legal, Product, Engineering, Marketing, and other cross-functional teams while maintaining systems that improve visibility and follow-through.
  • Handle sensitive information with discretion and confidentiality and support administrative follow-through for select executive priorities and events.

Qualifications:

  • Experience as an Executive Assistant, Executive Business Partner, or comparable role supporting senior or C-level executives in a globally distributed organization.
  • Experience working in a software or technology company; high-growth or B2B SaaS experience is a plus.
  • Experience managing executive calendars, travel, expenses, complex scheduling, and meeting or event logistics.
  • Demonstrated ability to anticipate problems, protect executive focus, and make sound decisions about competing priorities.
  • Strong organization, attention to detail, follow-through, written and verbal communication, and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to learn an executive’s working style and business priorities, manage up, and support multiple senior leaders as needs evolve.
  • Sound judgment, discretion, emotional intelligence, and comfort handling confidential information.
  • Proficiency with Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, and related collaboration tools.

About LaunchDarkly:

Modern software delivery was supposed to be the foundation for a thriving digital business but reality has proven otherwise.

The LaunchDarkly platform helps developers innovate on new features faster while protecting them with a safety valve to instantly rewind when things go wrong. Developers can target product experiences to any customer segment and maximize the business impact of every feature. And by gradually rolling out new application components, they escape nightmare "big-bang" technology migrations.

  • Improving the velocity and stability of software releases, without the fear of end customer outages
  • Delivering targeted experiences by easily personalizing features to customer cohorts
  • Maximizing the business impact of every feature through the ability to experiment and optimize
  • Coordinating the release and optimization of software to provide consistent experiences across mobile platforms and device types
  • Improving the effectiveness and productivity of engineering teams, by providing insights into engineering cadence and stability
