Summary

Tldr: Seeking a versatile and highly adaptable personal/virtual assistant with excellent communication skills, high degree of technical proficiency, and some prior exposure to web/software development and/or technical project management. Fractional CTO seeking a remote associate to embed themselves in a healthy mix of client-facing project work and personal admin support. This role could take a couple of different shapes, and will almost certainly evolve on the fly. The bottom line - I'm looking for someone to help me maximize the value I can provide to my clients and the exciting projects we have in-flight, by increasing bandwidth and reducing bottlenecks in day-to-day operational and administrative task load. Non-exhaustive list of potential responsibilities: - Daily correspondence with technical and creative freelance talent to maintain project pace/momentum. - Web/application monitoring, analytics reporting, infrastructure performance reporting and cost analysis. - CRM hygiene and maintenance. - Ad hoc data entry/CMS updates/misc. client admin request fulfillment. - Digital resource/tool management, provisioning, access control. - General PA/EA support (scheduling, vendor correspondence, research, business admin). - **Depending on background and experience** DevOps management support (Jira board admin, process enforcement, CI/CD monitoring, etc.). Firm requirements: - Excellent written/verbal communication skills. - Flexible schedule, available at least 20 hours/week. - High degree of general technical proficiency/digital literacy. - Creative problem solver, excited to learn about different industries and develop new skills. - Resourceful self-starter, able to provide value without constant supervision. Advantageous skills/experience: - Any software/IT background - DevOps experience (agile project management, git - CRM/CMS experience - Creative tools (Figma, Adobe CC, etc.) I'm more than happy to consider someone with minimal direct experience and a strong ability/desire to learn this space. Long term involvement is absolutely a possibility, with opportunity for growth into a more formal role as business scales. Please reach out if you feel this could be a good fit, happy to discuss more and share some more specifics. Thank you!
