Executive Assistant- Network & Infrastructure Strategy

Available Locations: Austin, TX
About the role
At Cloudflare, we have a big vision: to help build a better Internet. We're looking for a bright, proactive, and detail-oriented Executive Assistant to support our VP of Capacity Planning and Infrastructure and our VP of Infrastructure - Network Strategy.
In this role, you aren't just managing a calendar; you are the "central point person" ensuring our leaders stay organized, prioritized, and productive as we scale. This requires a seasoned professional who understands the importance of the EA role in supporting our leaders and prides themselves on building the internal and external relationships necessary to get things done.
What You'll Do

• Strategic Gatekeeping: Strategically plan long-term calendars with minimal direction, aligning schedules with business priorities. You'll "play Tetris" with global time zones, prioritizing with purpose and deflecting with tact.
• Operational Excellence: Own all travel and logistics-both domestic and international-optimizing for the executive's time and cost. You'll handle expense reports through Navan and ensure every detail is secured and up-to-date.
• Project Leadership: Own small-to-medium projects, creating high-quality presentations and spreadsheets. You'll track action items for recurring meetings (Weekly, Monthly, All Hands) and ensure owners follow through.
• Mission Control: Act as a trusted communicator who understands the "why" behind business priorities. You'll prepare agendas and data for meetings, ensuring your executives are equipped with everything they need to succeed.
• Team Collaboration: Our EA team has a high degree of camaraderie and so the ideal candidate values partnering closely with their peers and fostering teamwork, helping to make Cloudflare a welcoming, inclusive place for everyone.

Desired Skills and Experience

• Experience: Typically 6+ years of related experience, ideally in a high-growth environment supporting senior leaders.
• Problem Solving: You are a "skilled specialist" who completes complex tasks in resourceful ways. You anticipate logistical needs before they are explicitly stated.
• Communication: Excellent verbal and written skills. You can distill complex information into clear language and share relevant info in a way everyone understands.
• Integrity: You act with a high level of discretion, doing the right thing even when it's hard and focusing on the long-term best interest of the company.
• Technical Savvy: Expert-level knowledge of Google Suite and major airline platforms.

Mindset: Personable with a "can-do" attitude. You lead with empathy, assume good intentions, and treat everyone with respect.
