━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL JOB.
We are a C-suite family — a CEO and CFO of a growing technology company in Irvine, California — looking for one trusted, self-directed individual to take complete ownership of our personal and household operations.
No corporate politics. No micromanagement. No revolving door. One family. Full trust. Real responsibility. A long-term relationship built on performance and loyalty.
This role starts as a 90-day contract. Strong performers convert to full-time with salary growth, health insurance, and a genuine path forward.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT THIS ROLE DEMANDS
- Physical capability and hands-on availability
- No schedule restrictions — early mornings, late nights, weekends, and emergency availability
- Composure when dealing with difficult people and high-pressure situations
- Comfortable traveling solo domestically and internationally
- Valid passport, clean driving record, and spotless background
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
