U.S. manufacturers are under growing pressure to increase output while navigating workforce constraints, underutilized equipment, and increasingly complex supply chains. We believe the next generation of manufacturing will be enabled by more intelligent, flexible automation-systems that help people and machines work together to expand capacity and improve productivity.\nWe're building the intelligence layer that makes that possible.\nOur team comes from the intersection of defense technology and AI. We've built and shipped products to DoD customers, and we bring deep experience across ML, robotics, product development, and defense.\nWe're a small, in-person team in New York City working on hard problems that matter. If you want to build the future of American manufacturing, we'd love to hear from you.\nThe role\nWe’re hiring an Executive Assistant & Operations Associate to be the right hand to our CEO and founders. You’ll keep the company moving at full speed. The founders’ time is the scarcest resource we have, and your job is to protect it, multiply it, and make sure every customer, candidate and guest leaves wanting to work with Nidus.\nEvery hour you give back goes into winning customers, hiring exceptional talent and building the company. You’ll work in person with a small, senior team that moves fast, and you’ll have a front-row seat to how a defense tech company gets built.\nWhat you’ll do\nRun the founders’ calendars and travel. Keep schedules tight, trips smooth and plans ready to change at a moment’s notice, including for anyone traveling with them.\n\nOwn expenses end to end. Close out receipts, expense reports and reimbursements before anyone thinks to ask.\n\nMove deals forward. Coordinate NDAs, calls and meetings at Nidus and at customer sites. Draft and send emails, and chase every follow-up until it’s done.\n\nHelp us win great people. Partner with the Head of Talent on candidate meetings with the founders, including scheduling, travel and onsite visits.\n\nBring people together. Plan NYC recruiting dinners and events with the Head of Talent, and help organize offsites and team outings that people look forward to.\n\nKeep the office running. Handle visitor access, deliveries and packages so the team can stay focused on building. Welcome guests, prepare for visits, and make sure every customer and partner who walks in remembers us.\n\nWho you are\nYou’ve supported founders or executives, and you’ve made them measurably more effective.\n\nYou see what’s coming before anyone asks, fix conflicts quietly, and close loops without reminders.\n\nYou’re organized, responsive and reliable. When you say something is handled, it is.\n\nYou write clearly and represent the company with confidence to anyone, from a government customer to a senior engineering candidate.\n\nYou’re discreet. You’ll see sensitive information and treat it that way.\n\nYou want to work in person with a small team that moves fast, and the pace energizes you.\n\nBonus: experience in defense tech or working directly with government customers.\n\nCompensation & Benefits\nBase Salary: 100k - 150k.\nThe listed range reflects base salary only. Total compensation also includes meaningful equity and benefits:\nEquity: Meaningful ownership in what we’re building.\n\nHealth coverage: Medical, dental and vision through Thatch.\n\nTeam lunches: Lunch in the office with the team.\n\nOur benefits will keep growing as we do. If the work excites you, please apply. We’d love to talk!\nNidus Technologies is an equal opportunity employer, and qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender perception or identity, national origin, age, marital status, protected veteran status, or disability status.\nWe encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply, even if you don't feel like you're a perfect fit. If you're passionate about contributing to our mission, we'd love to hear from you!","description_format":"text","description_chars":4044,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Defense Manufacturing","Industrial AI"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-10T01:54:32Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":25,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-10T03:14:37Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nidus-executive-assistant-operations-associate","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nidus-executive-assistant-operations-associate.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-10T03:14:37Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":7553,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-11T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":682361},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=682361"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnidus-executive-assistant-operations-associate"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnidus-executive-assistant-operations-associate"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnidus-executive-assistant-operations-associate"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nidus-executive-assistant-operations-associate\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnidus-executive-assistant-operations-associate"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3997669}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"nidus.tech","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3997669},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
