The Opportunity

You're going to run one of our ventures. Not assist on it. Not support it. Run it. You're a CEO without the title — yet. We hand you a venture, the AI infrastructure to build it faster than anyone else could, and the autonomy to make it work. You own the product. You own the customers. You own the revenue. You own the P&L. This isn't a fellowship or a residency. It's not a training ground. We're looking for someone who has already proven they can take something from zero to real — someone who knows what it feels like to build, ship, sell, and iterate under pressure. Someone who doesn't need a playbook because they've written one before.

Who You Are

  • Experience & Skills
    • You've run something real before — a startup, a product line, a business unit, or a revenue-generating venture where you owned the outcome.
    • You have both product instinct and sales instinct. You can build something people want and you can convince them to pay for it.
    • You're AI-native in your approach to work. You already build with AI tools, not around them. You understand what's possible and you know how to exploit it.
    • You've managed a P&L or been accountable for financial performance. You understand unit economics, burn rate, and what it takes to make a business sustainable.
    • You have proof of work. Not a resume full of logos — actual artifacts. Things you've built, shipped, sold, or grown. Show us.
  • Mindset & Traits
    • You're self-managing and self-directing. No one is going to tell you what to do tomorrow morning. You figure it out and you execute.
    • You make decisions quickly with incomplete information and you're comfortable being wrong as long as you learn fast and correct course.
    • You think like an owner, not an employee. You don't wait for permission. You don't need your hand held. You take the problem and you solve it.
    • You're energized by autonomy and accountability, not paralyzed by it. The idea of running your own thing inside a larger engine excites you, not scares you.
    • You're intellectually honest about what's working and what isn't. You kill your darlings when the data says so, and you double down when momentum is real.
    • You want to build something that matters, not just collect a paycheck. You care about the mission, the product, and the people it serves.

Compensation & Logistics

  • Remote position open to candidates based in the US or Canada.
  • Full-time employment with competitive compensation including base salary, performance-based incentives, and potential equity participation in the venture you build.
  • Some travel required.
