We are dedicated to enhancing global connectivity, security, and efficiency through groundbreaking solutions.

About the Role
We are a stealth-mode startup currently building our MVP. We are looking for a Founder Associate to work directly alongside the founder on team building, fundraising preparation, and day-to-day operations. This is a ground-floor opportunity for someone who wants real ownership and a direct path to becoming a co-founder.
What You'll Do
- Help identify, screen, and coordinate with potential co-founders and early team members
- Support fundraising preparation (e.g., pitch decks, investor research, and outreach planning)
- Support internal operations and structuring as the company takes shape
- Act as a close execution and strategy partner to the founder in an ambiguous, early-stage environment
Who This is For This role is ideal for college students, recent graduates, or anyone early in their career who is drawn to startups, entrepreneurship, and is passionate about building something from zero. No specific experience is required, as we care far more about mindset than resume.
- Persistence and reliability — you follow through, no matter what
- Ownership mindset — you treat problems as yours to solve, not to escalate
- Strong communication and follow-up skills
- Comfortable working independently in a fully remote, flexible environment
- Long-term commitment — this is not a short-term project
Compensation & Growth
- Compensation: Equity only
- Location: Fully Remote (U.S. only — no visa sponsorship)
- Growth path: Co-founder
Please note: This is an equity-only role with no cash compensation at this stage. Apply only if you are comfortable with this structure and are genuinely interested in building a company as a co-founder. Apply tot his job Apply To this Job
