About The Role & Team

We're looking for an experienced Executive Assistant to support two members of Amplitude's executive leadership team: our Chief Human Resources Officer and our Head of Marketing. This is a highly visible role at the intersection of People, Marketing, and the broader executive team, requiring exceptional organization, sound judgment, and the ability to anticipate needs before they arise. You'll serve as a trusted partner who protects executive time, turns ideas into action, and helps ensure important work keeps moving across teams. The ideal candidate combines strong operational instincts with a high degree of AI fluency, using technology to make leaders and teams more connected, efficient, and effective.

This role is based in our San Francisco headquarters and follows Amplitude's hybrid work model. Regular in-office collaboration is an important part of the role, enabling close partnership with the CHRO, Head of Marketing, and executive leadership team while maintaining flexibility where appropriate.

As an Executive Assistant, you will:

  • Protect executive time and create leverage: Proactively manage complex calendars, travel, meeting preparation, communications, decisions, and follow-ups for the CHRO and Head of Marketing, helping ensure their time is focused on the highest-impact priorities.
  • Turn ideas into action: Help transform early-stage ideas and rough concepts into clear next steps, briefs, pilots, owners, and timelines. Jumpstart projects by clarifying roles, coordinating stakeholders, establishing tracking, and bringing a first version to life before handing execution off to the appropriate team.
  • Keep priorities moving: Create visibility across key priorities and initiatives, track follow-ups and decisions, surface blockers, and ensure important work doesn't stall or fall through the cracks.
  • Use AI to improve how we work: Run and co-manage AI-powered workflows and systems that improve productivity, team cohesion, communication, and effectiveness. Monitor quality, troubleshoot failures, and continuously improve workflows over time.
  • Support high-impact team and company initiatives: Help coordinate leadership meetings, offsites, QBRs, All Hands, team experiences, customer and culture initiatives, and external events—including emerging AI-focused marketing events and programs.

You'll be a great addition to the team if:

  • You are highly proactive and bring a high-agency mindset to your work. You don't wait for perfect instructions and are comfortable taking the first step to move something forward.
  • You are operationally strong and process-oriented , while understanding that process should simplify work rather than create unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • You are an AI-fluent practitioner who actively uses AI tools to improve your own productivity and the effectiveness of the teams you support.
  • You are an excellent simplifier who can move seamlessly between small details and ambiguous, cross-functional problems while keeping the bigger picture in view.
  • You build trust quickly and communicate effectively with executives, cross-functional partners, and external stakeholders, while exercising exceptional judgment and discretion.

At a minimum, you need to have:

  • 5+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant supporting VP- or C-level executives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
  • Experience managing complex executive calendars, domestic and international travel, meeting logistics, expenses, and executive communications.
  • Demonstrated experience coordinating projects, events, or cross-functional initiatives and driving follow-through across multiple stakeholders.
  • Strong proficiency with Google Workspace and experience using AI tools or automation to improve workflows, productivity, or decision-making.
  • A track record of handling highly confidential information with professionalism, integrity, sound judgment, and discretion.
  • The ability to work from our San Francisco office as part of our hybrid work model.
