Office Manager

About Cyngn Based in Mountain View, CA, Cyngn is a publicly-traded autonomous technology company. We deploy self-driving industrial vehicles —specifically autonomous tuggers—  to factories, warehouses, and other facilities throughout North America. To build this emergent technology, we are looking for innovative, motivated, and experienced leaders to join us and move this field forward. If you like to build, tinker, and create with a team of trusted and passionate colleagues, then Cyngn is the place for you. Key reasons to join Cyngn:    We are Small and Big. With under 100 employees, Cyngn operates with the energy of a startup. On the other hand, we’re publicly traded. This means our employees not only work in close-knit teams with mentorship from company leaders—they also get access to the liquidity of our publicly-traded equity.   We Build Today and Deploy Tomorrow. Our autonomous vehicles aren’t just test concepts—they’re deployed to real clients right now. That means your work will have a tangible, visible impact.   We aren’t robots. We just build them. We’re a welcoming, diverse team of sharp thinkers and kind humans. Collaboration and trust drive our creative environment. At Cyngn, everyone’s perspective matters—and that’s what powers our innovation.   About this role:  This is a hands-on, onsite role at our Mountain View headquarters. As Office Manager, you are the steady force that keeps the office running and the team supported. This is an early-start role for someone with high energy who takes pride in being the ultimate support staff member—a doer who keeps things moving day-to-day rather than focusing on high-level strategy.
