How To Apply

Send in the below task to roopesh@makkajai.com along with your resume.
https://tinyurl.com/makkajai-ea-jobWe’re looking for a proactive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented Executive Assistant who can help our founder stay focused on high-leverage work — by taking care of everything else.This role is a unique mix of research, coordination, admin support, and trusted execution. You won’t be managing inboxes or scheduling back-to-back meetings. But you will be handling key items that would otherwise distract our founder — from tracking compliance deadlines to booking international vacations to gently nudging vendors until things are done.
We don’t need someone to "check tasks off a list." We’re looking for someone who can see what needs doing, ask sharp questions, and follow through without reminders.
What You'll Actually DoThis is a generalist role with wide scope. You'll own tasks like:

• Handling Admin and Compliance Follow-ups
• Chase down documents, deadlines, and people so nothing slips
• Coordinate with accountants, CS agents, or other vendors to get things over the finish line
• Doing Smart, Focused Research
• Find the best options for tools, consultants, travel spots, or gift ideas
• Summarize clearly, highlight tradeoffs, and help speed up decisions
• Managing External Relationships
• Work with external teams (designers, lawyers, writers, contractors) in a way that’s clear, respectful, and not purely transactional
• Follow up without being annoying, push things forward without drama
• Handling Personal or Life Tasks
• Book appointments, manage errands, compare vendors — anything that saves the founder time and mental load
  

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You:

• Love being the person people trust to “just handle it”
• Write clearly, think logically, and don't need your hand held
• Get satisfaction from closing loops, ticking boxes, and cleaning up loose ends
• Respect other people’s time and energy — and expect the same in return
• Can manage ambiguity, prioritize ruthlessly, and get things done
  

You Won’t Enjoy This Role If You:

• Need step-by-step instructions before getting started
• Are uncomfortable with tasks that mix the personal and professional
• Struggle with persistence or don’t like following up multiple times
• Want a traditional EA role with calendar and inbox control
  

Role Details

• Remote | Full-time | Long-term
• Flexible hours, async-first — some overlap with IST preferred
• You’ll report directly to the founder and work closely with a small external team (no large internal org)
  

Our Principles (Please Read These First!)

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in a similar support, ops, or coordinator role
• Strong written communication skills — and a sharp eye for detail
• Comfortable with modern tools (Notion, GDocs, email, etc.)
• Bonus: experience working with founders or external vendors
  

Hiring Process

• Async sample task (:45 mins)
• Written async back-and-forth
• 2-3 interview calls
• Offer!
  

We respect your time — and give honest feedback at every step.
