Operations Assistant

Full time
Remote
About the Role
We're looking for an Operations Assistant to work closely with our VP of Operations and help keep the company organized and running smoothly.
A big part of this role is taking things off the team's plate. You'll be working on documents, organizing files, keeping information up to date, writing and maintaining internal documentation, doing research, following up on tasks, and helping with whatever operational work needs to get done.
We're a lean team, so this is not a role where you'll be given one task and wait for the next one. There will be a lot of different things coming your way. Some will be routine, some will be completely new. We need someone who can figure things out, stay organized, and follow through without needing to be managed every step of the way.
We're also still in the process of bringing in investors, so we're keeping the team lean and being thoughtful about hiring. We're looking for someone who can be genuinely useful across different areas of the business and grow with the company.
Responsibilities
Work directly with the VP of Operations on day-to-day operational tasks
Create, organize, update, and maintain company documents and files
Keep Google Drive and other company folders clean, organized, and easy to navigate
Write and maintain SOPs, process documents, internal guides, and other documentation
Take information from meetings, chats, notes, and conversations and turn it into clear documentation
Maintain spreadsheets, trackers, reports, and other internal records
Help keep tasks, deadlines, and follow-ups organized
Research different topics and put together useful summaries and information
Help coordinate with team members and follow up on things that need to get done
Help improve the way we organize information and run internal processes
Assist with onboarding materials and other internal resources
Take on one-off projects and administrative tasks as needed
Handle confidential company information responsibly
Requirements
1+ years of experience in operations, administration, executive assistance, project coordination, or a similar role
Very organized and detail-oriented
Strong written English and comfortable writing clear documentation
Comfortable working with Google Docs, Sheets, Drive, and similar tools
Good at organizing large amounts of information and files
Able to manage multiple tasks without losing track of details
Comfortable working independently and figuring things out
Reliable and good at following through
Comfortable in a remote and fast-moving environment
Willing to do whatever needs to be done to keep things moving
Nice to Have
Experience working directly with a founder, executive, or operations team
Experience writing SOPs or internal documentation
Familiarity with Notion, Slack, ClickUp, Asana, Airtable, or similar tools
Good spreadsheet skills
Experience at a startup or small company
Comfortable using AI tools to help with research, writing, organization, and repetitive work
Experience in crypto, Web3, fintech, trading, or financial services
Who This Is For
This role is a good fit if you're naturally organized and like getting things done.
If someone sends you 20 files and says "please organize these," you should be able to figure out a sensible system and get it done.
If a process keeps coming up but nobody has documented it, you should be comfortable writing it down.
If you notice something is missing or could be done better, we want you to speak up and fix it.
We're looking for someone dependable, practical, and easy to work with. You don't need to know everything coming in. You just need to be willing to learn, take ownership, and get the work done.

Full time

Strategic Venture Partner — Web3 Markets & Ecosystem
Location: Singapore / Remote
Company: Oryon
Type: Full-time or long-term strategic engagement
About Oryon
Oryon is a hands-on venture capital firm focused on Web3 and AI. We work closely with founders and portfolio companies across strategy, partnerships, fundraising, market expansion, go-to-market execution, product growth, exchange relations, and commercialization.
Rather than operating purely as a financial investor, Oryon takes an active role in helping companies build stronger businesses and navigate complex markets.
We are currently expanding our network in Asia and are looking for an experienced Web3 professional to join us as a Strategic Venture Partner — Web3 Markets & Ecosystem.
The Role
This is a senior, relationship-driven position for someone who has spent significant time inside the crypto ecosystem and understands how projects, founders, exchanges, investors, market makers, funds, and token ecosystems interact.
You will work directly with the Oryon team and selected portfolio companies, helping identify opportunities, evaluate projects, develop strategic relationships, and support companies through key stages of growth.
The role combines venture strategy, ecosystem development, market intelligence, partnerships, and direct founder engagement.
Responsibilities
Identify promising Web3 companies, protocols, infrastructure projects, and emerging market opportunities.
Build and maintain relationships with founders, investors, exchanges, market makers, ecosystem funds, family offices, and other industry participants.
Participate in evaluating early-stage and growth-stage opportunities.
Analyze token economics, market structure, liquidity dynamics, competitive positioning, and ecosystem incentives.
Support founders with fundraising strategy and introductions to relevant strategic partners.
Help portfolio companies develop exchange, liquidity, ecosystem, and institutional relationships.
Identify strategic partnership opportunities across Asia and global Web3 markets.
Participate in discussions around new market opportunities, emerging narratives, and sector positioning.
Represent Oryon in selected private industry discussions, founder meetings, conferences, and ecosystem events.
Contribute independent investment and market perspectives to internal discussions.
Develop new commercial and strategic opportunities for both Oryon and its portfolio companies.
Who We’re Looking For
We are particularly interested in candidates with deep practical exposure to the crypto industry rather than purely theoretical experience.
A strong candidate may have experience in one or several of the following areas:
venture capital or crypto investment;
digital asset markets;
exchanges;
OTC and institutional markets;
market making;
token launches;
ecosystem development;
protocol partnerships;
crypto business development;
founder advisory;
private market transactions;
DeFi;
Web3 infrastructure.
You should have a strong understanding of how value moves through the crypto ecosystem and be comfortable speaking directly with founders, executives, investors, traders, and institutional counterparties.
Ideal Profile
5+ years of relevant experience in crypto, Web3, venture, fintech, or digital asset markets.
Strong existing network within the Web3 ecosystem.
Experience evaluating projects beyond surface-level narratives.
Good understanding of tokenomics, liquidity, exchanges, market cycles, and crypto-native business models.
Comfortable forming independent opinions and challenging consensus.
Strong negotiation and relationship-building skills.
Ability to operate independently in a distributed international environment.
Fluent professional English.
Singapore or broader APAC network is a strong advantage.
What Makes This Role Different
This is not a traditional corporate business-development role.
You will have significant exposure to founders, emerging technologies, new projects, strategic transactions, and investment discussions across the Web3 ecosystem.
We are looking for someone who already thinks like an operator and market participant and wants to work closely with companies rather than simply observe them from the outside.
What We Offer
Fully remote international working environment.
Direct interaction with founders and senior Oryon team members.
Exposure to early-stage and growth-stage Web3 companies.
Significant autonomy over partnerships and new opportunities.
Competitive compensation based on experience.
Performance-based upside for exceptional contributors.
Opportunity to develop into a broader Venture Partner role as Oryon expands.
Website: https://oryon.team
Oryon is currently operating in stealth mode, so only limited information about our activities is publicly available. Additional information about the firm, role, and collaboration structure will be discussed directly with selected candidates.
