- HR & People Ops: Help with hiring logistics, interview scheduling, onboarding, and general team setup.
- Documentation: Prepare pitch decks, summaries, and meeting notes for internal and leadership reviews.
- Ad-hoc Projects: Act as the team’s ultimate extra pair of hands across all ongoing launch operations.

- Education: Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree (Business, Finance, Marketing, or Economics preferred).
- Organizational Skills: Highly organized, reliable, proactive, and comfortable owning critical coordination work.
- Agility: Highly adaptable; thrives in an environment where priorities shift and the scope is continuously evolving.
