OfficeNew York CityEX125k - 175k USD

We’re seeking someone who is highly capable, proactive, and organized; someone who can write and speak well and, above all, is extremely conscientious. Great organizers can keep dozens of threads in their head and not drop any of them; that rare skill is what we’re looking for.

We’re looking for someone interested in a high-ownership role: the job ranges from booking travel to standing up a hiring pipeline to planning a dinner for twelve with a seating chart that actually works. Some days are logistics; some days are judgment calls the founder would otherwise have to make herself. We want someone who treats both as worth doing well.

What you'll do

  • Manage calendar, scheduling, and logistics for the founder and head of strategy

  • Draft emails and handle follow-ups

  • Coordinate meetings, dinners, offsites, and events

  • Support hiring: scheduling interviews, coordinating candidates, keeping the pipeline moving

  • Run onboarding for new hires so they're productive on day one

  • Manage vendors/external relationships

  • Own day-to-day operational tasks and special projects that don't fit anyone else's job

  • Act as a reliable thought partner who makes the founder and head of strategy more effective

About this role

We work in-person 5 days a week out of our office in Midtown Manhattan. We cover generous benefits for employees, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, lunch and dinner covered, and other varied stipends.

We pride ourselves on a company culture that values a diversity of thoughts and opinions.

About Quadrillion

Quadrillion Labs builds Qualia, an agentic research intelligence platform that does real computational research — running experiments, analyzing data, and surfacing insight for the people who do this work at the highest level.

We're a team out of Stanford NLP, HRT, Citadel, Jane Street, Google Research, and Harvard Med, building for an audience that looks a lot like us. We've raised ~$18M from Conviction, Audacious, Bloomberg Beta, ex/ante, and angels including Wes McKinney, the creator of pandas. We're ~10 people in NYC, scaling to ~15 in the coming months.

We think this is the Industrial Revolution moment for research, and we're building the team to define what comes next.
