Role Description

We’re looking for a Technical Co-Founder who wants to build and scale a startup from the ground up.

This is not a traditional job, this is a long-term partnership to build a company together.

You will work closely on:

• building and improving the product (frontend, backend, APIs, AI integration)

• shaping product architecture and technical decisions

• shipping features quickly and iterating based on feedback

• thinking creatively about how to take the product to market

• contributing to real market strategy, not just code

• preparing for fundraising and supporting investor conversations

We are looking for someone who is:

• hands-on and ready to build

• technically strong across full stack (or willing to learn fast)

• creative enough to think beyond code and contribute to product direction

• interested in AI tools and modern product development

• a fast learner who adapts quickly

• proactive, reliable, and execution-focused

• someone who wants to build and scale a real startup

This role is about ownership, not just contribution.

Technical Expectations

Technical skills we value:

• Strong understanding of full-stack development (frontend + backend)

• Experience with APIs, databases, and system design

• Familiarity with modern frameworks (React / Next.js, FastAPI or similar)

• Interest or experience in AI / LLM-based systems

• Ability to learn quickly and work independently

You don’t need to know everything, but you should be confident building and figuring things out.

Mindset & Fit

This role is ideal for someone who:

• wants to build a startup, not just work in one

• is comfortable with early-stage uncertainty and ambiguity

• can think creatively about product, users, and market strategy

• is willing to take ownership and make decisions

• is thinking long-term and interested in building something meaningful

Structure

This is an early-stage role:

• Compensation: Equity-based (no salary at this stage)

• Working style: Hybrid / flexible

• Location: London (flexible)

We are looking for a true partner to build, grow, and scale the company together.
