This is a hands-on, in-person role that sits at the intersection of operational rigor and community — supporting the day-to-day rhythm of our building while helping cultivate a strong, engaged environment for the startups we serve. This is the right role for someone with an entrepreneurial mindset who thrives on variety, moves quickly, takes real ownership, and is genuinely excited to be on the ground floor of a community working on some of the hardest problems in science and technology.</div>\n<div>&nbsp;</div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><strong>A Day in the Life</strong> No two days look the same in this role in this role. You might start the morning restocking supplies and coordinating with a vendor to fix a broken coffee machine, then spend the afternoon supporting a startup with their growth and expansion plans. In between, you're processing invoices, welcoming new team members to the startups in our building, assisting with programming, and finding ways to reduce operational friction so startups can stay focused on building their companies. This role is for someone who is energized by variety and takes pride in keeping things running smoothly — while staying curious about the work happening around them.</span></div>"
