We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like application instructions, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: - The Opportunity: description of role, company, product, market, etc. This could go under "About the role" maybe. - About FutureSight: description of venture builder, team. - The Partnership: founder equity, pre-seed capital, resources, network, co-creation model. - What you'll own: responsibilities (strategy, customer development, product, capital, team). This is responsibilities. - Co-Founder Profile: requirements/qualifications/skills: previous founding experience, B2B AI/SaaS GTM, fundraising fluency, talent attraction, domain expertise in insurance defence. - Benefits: founder equity, pre-seed capital, resources, network, etc. Might be considered benefits. - Pay: "This offers meaningful founder equity, not a salary." So pay is equity, not salary. Should we include Pay section? It says include Pay only if posting actually states them. It does state "meaningful founder equity, not a salary." That's specific. So we can include Pay section describing equity. - Schedule: not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit. - Benefits: we could list founder equity, pre-seed capital, resources, network, co-creation model. But some of that overlaps with Pay and Partnership. Might be better to have Benefits section for non-compensation benefits: venture building resources, embedded design, engineering, growth, fundraising support, investor/advisor network, true co-creation model. Also maybe "meaningful founder equity" is Pay, not Benefits. - Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements. We need to decide sections. We must not create thin sections. Prefer few substantive sections. We could have: - About the role (description of opportunity, product, market, FutureSight) - Responsibilities (What you'll own) - Requirements / Qualifications / Skills (Co-Founder Profile) maybe combine into one section "Requirements" with bullet list. - Benefits (venture building resources, network, co-creation model) - Pay (founder equity, not salary) We must not include Schedule. We must not include duplicated lines. We must preserve all substantive info. Let's extract substantive info: About the role / opportunity: - FutureSight seeking Co-Founder & CEO to lead LucentAI, an AI-native litigation operations venture in build at FutureSight. - Offers meaningful founder equity, not a salary. - LucentAI serves as autopilot for medical-records and discovery operations in small-to-mid insurance-defence firms. - Embedding in case-management systems, it retrieves and reviews records, flags key facts with confidence links, checks billing reasonableness, and chronologically triages discovery. - Human-gated system excludes legal drafting, externalizing review capacity so firms can scale case volume without adding headcount. - Market validation through FutureSight’s discovery interviews confirmed strong demand: Operations is the wedge; autopilot is the vision. All buyers wanted managed operations. - LucentAI provides end-to-end automation, earning trust incrementally by handling routine work silently while keeping legal drafting human. - Pain is in the dollars, not the dashboards. One lead costs the middle phase at ~$1M/year in time and errors; a partner noted only ~$200K of a $1M medical bill was reasonable. - With zero AI currently used, the ROI-driven payback case is immediate. - Capacity is the ceiling, and the record is the moat. Manual partner review caps case capacity and revenue. Defence records and billing patterns form a proprietary dataset that plaintiff-focused incumbents lack. - Market Context: target underserved small-to-mid US insurance-defence firms. Phase-1 beachhead SAM is $150M–$600M across 1,500–3,000 firms; full roadmap reaches ≥$100M obtainable market (SOM ≈ $110M–$360M). With 71% of legal AI funding flowing to plaintiff-focused companies, defence market remains underserved, creating need for technology purpose-built for litigation defence and risk management. About FutureSight: - FutureSight is a leading venture builder that co-creates world-class software companies with values-driven entrepreneurs from inception to exit. - Team of founders, operators and designers with experience successfully bringing software to market at scale. - You’ll co-create with a proven studio team, led by John Carbrey (4x entrepreneur, $100M ARR), Krista LaRiviere (3x exited, E&Y Top Women Entrepreneur), Alan Smith (Strategyzer co-founder, $120M in products built), Prathna Ramesh (former MD of Maple Leaf Angels, $275M in follow-on capital), and Johnny Tong (0-to-1 builder, acquired by SAP and Stripe) bring a rare combination of operator exits, institutional investing, and AI product depth. The Partnership: - Founder equity with meaningful ownership from inception - Pre-seed capital committed by FutureSight for early hires and MVP development, with potential for follow-on funding - Venture building resources, including embedded design, engineering, growth, and fundraising support from day one - Investor and advisor network across vertical AI and early-stage capital markets - A true co-creation model in which you operate as CEO with FutureSight's cross-functional team as your partner What you'll own (Responsibilities): - As Co-Founder & CEO, you will set the venture's direction and lead its execution. - Strategy — Refine the ICP, size-tiered pricing model, and product positioning - Customer Development — Lead pilots with managing partners and claims/litigation-operations leads at small-to-mid insurance-defence firms, starting from the confirmed design partner, convert them to paid engagements, and build the go-to-market motion - Product — Partner with the FutureSight product and engineering team to ship V1 (records retrieval, key-fact flagging, billing-reasonableness analysis, and discovery triage) and iterate on user feedback; sequence carrier reserving and prediction as a later phase - Capital — Lead the seed raise, supported by FutureSight's network and traction - Team — Recruit and lead the founding team, and establish the cultural foundation of the company Co-Founder Profile (Requirements/Qualifications/Skills): - Previous founding experience at a venture-backed company - Demonstrated success in B2B AI or B2B SaaS go-to-market, including consultative, relationship-driven sales and customer engagement - Fundraising fluency, with the ability to develop investor narratives and close capital - Proven ability to attract, develop, and retain top talent - Clear-eyed understanding of the risks and demands of co-founding a venture-backed company - Deep domain expertise in insurance defence or claims operations, including pre-litigation records and discovery, legal billing review, and litigation case management. We should not include "How to Apply" etc. Now produce HTML. We need headings

for each section. We'll include sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay. We need to decide if we need Qualifications/Skills separate. Could combine into Requirements. We'll put bullet lists
  • for lists. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can paraphrase but must not invent or summarize away detail. We should keep details like numbers, percentages, etc. Let's craft. About the role: combine opportunity description, product description, market validation, FutureSight description maybe? But we have separate About FutureSight under Partnership? Actually About FutureSight is separate but could be part of About the role. However we have Partnership section describing resources etc. Might be better to have About the role include the opportunity and product/market context, and maybe a brief about FutureSight? But we have Partnership covering resources etc. We'll keep About the role focusing on the opportunity, product, market. Then Partnership maybe as Benefits? Actually Partnership describes founder equity, pre-seed capital, resources, network, co-creation model. That's like Benefits. So we can put those under Benefits. Thus: - About the role: description of LucentAI, problem, solution, market validation, market context. - Responsibilities: What you'll own. - Requirements: Co-Founder Profile. - Benefits: Partnership items (founder equity? Actually equity is Pay; but we also have pre-seed capital, resources, network, co-creation model). We'll keep Benefits as non-compensation: pre-seed capital, venture building resources, investor/advisor network, true co-creation model. - Pay: founder equity, not a salary. We must not repeat founder equity in both Benefits and Pay. So Benefits will exclude equity. Let's extract Benefits items: - Pre-seed capital committed by FutureSight for early hires and MVP development, with potential for follow-on funding - Venture building resources, including embedded design, engineering, growth, and fundraising support from day one - Investor and advisor network across vertical AI and early-stage capital markets - A true co-creation model in which you operate as CEO with FutureSight's cross-functional team as your partner Also maybe mention "FutureSight is a leading venture builder..." but that's more about the studio; could be part of About the role? Might be okay to include in About the role as context. We'll keep About the role includes description of FutureSight as venture builder. Now craft HTML. We need to ensure no extra text outside HTML. Let's produce:

    About the role

    FutureSight is seeking a Co‑Founder & CEO to lead LucentAI, an AI‑native litigation operations venture being built at FutureSight. LucentAI serves as an autopilot for medical‑records and discovery operations in small‑to‑mid insurance‑defence firms. It embeds in case‑management systems to retrieve and review records, flag key facts with confidence links, check billing reasonableness, and chronologically triage discovery. The system is human‑gated (excluding legal drafting) so firms can scale case volume without adding headcount. Market validation through FutureSight’s discovery interviews showed strong demand: operations is the wedge, autopilot is the vision, and all buyers wanted managed operations. LucentAI provides end‑to‑end automation, earning trust by handling routine work silently while keeping legal drafting human. The pain is in the dollars—one lead costs the middle phase ≈ $1 M/year in time and errors, with only ≈ $200 K of a $1 M medical bill deemed reasonable. With zero AI currently used, the ROI‑driven payback is immediate. Capacity is the ceiling and the record is the moat; manual partner review caps case revenue, while defence records and billing patterns form a proprietary dataset that plaintiff‑focused incumbents lack. Market context: targeting underserved small‑to‑mid US insurance‑defence firms, the Phase‑1 beachhead SAM is $150 M–$600 M across 1,500–3,000 firms; the full roadmap reaches a ≥$100 M obtainable market (SOM ≈ $110 M–$360 M). Given that 71 % of legal AI funding flows to plaintiff‑focused companies, the defence market remains underserved, creating a need for technology purpose‑built for litigation defence and risk management. FutureSight is a leading venture builder that co‑creates world‑class software companies with values‑driven entrepreneurs from inception to exit, backed by a team of founders, operators and designers with a track record of bringing software to market at scale.

    Responsibilities

    • Set the venture’s direction and lead its execution as Co‑Founder & CEO.
    • Strategy – Refine the ICP, size‑tiered pricing model
