Full Job Description
What MatX Is Building MatX is on a mission to make the world’s best AI models run as efficiently as possible, bringing the world years ahead in AI quality and availability. We are looking for someone to work collaboratively with leadership, other support roles, and our team members to ensure we build an efficient and effective organization positioned well for growth. MatX is hiring an Office Manager who will own the day-to-day experience of our office; from the physical space and food program to events and new-hire onboarding. This role falls under our Workplace Operations team, and reports to the Chief of Staff. Most importantly, this role partners closely with every team from IT/Security to People to the engineering teams. MatX is an engineering-first company, and that shapes how everyone here works — including non-engineering roles. People here ask "why?" a lot. They poke holes in processes, question decisions, and give blunt feedback when something isn't working. This isn't adversarial; it's how we improve. The right person for this role genuinely values this dynamic and uses it to make their work better. We expect our Office Manager to treat feedback as signal, dig into root causes, and communicate their reasoning transparently, even when the answer is, "I looked into it and here's why we're sticking with the current approach." What You'll Do Own the office experience end-to-end. Workplace operations including furniture, decor, maintenance, building access, and keeping the space functional and welcoming. You'll manage our food and beverage program: selecting and managing vendors, soliciting feedback on quality and timing. You'll coordinate with IT for technical support and equipment needs. Be the point of contact for building operations. Manage our landlord and property management relationship. Partner with IT/Security as the office safety warden: own emergency training, drills, and incident response. Provide on-call support for after-hours building emergencies
