Full Job Description

đź“‹ Description

  • • A pre-seed AI SaaS startup is looking for a Technical Co-Founder to join as the third member of the founding team.
  • • The company is building an AI-powered platform that automates the end-to-end process of public procurement and tender participation for architectural and planning offices in the DACH region.
  • • This is a true co-founder role: you will own the full technical implementation, help shape company strategy, and have a direct impact on market adoption and growth from day one.
  • • Design and build a GDPR-compliant system architecture hosted in the EU (e.g., on AWS Bedrock or Vertex AI in Frankfurt or equivalent EU regions).
  • • Build the core AI engine that generates complete, compelling proposal concepts from client data.
  • • Develop and maintain a reference database for project references, certificates, and CVs, and integrate them intelligently into generated documents.
  • • Implement entity resolution, reliability scoring, and confidence quantification across the data pipeline.
  • • Work deeply in AI/ML (LLMs, RAG, NLP) and/or broadly across product engineering, depending on your strengths.
  • • Define and drive technical priorities alongside the founding team during the pre-seed phase.
  • • Contribute to product strategy, architecture decisions, and business development as a full founding team member.

🎯 Requirements

  • • 5+ years of experience in product/engineering roles delivering AI-powered software with LLM, NLP, or RAG capabilities.
  • • Hands-on experience designing GDPR-compliant architectures in EU cloud environments (e.g., data handling for NLP/LLMs).
  • • Prior experience as a technical founder or technical lead building an AI-first product from zero, with full end-to-end ownership.

🏖️ Benefits

  • • 15–20% co-founder equity with a four-year vesting schedule and one-year cliff.
  • • Pre-seed stage; initially weighted toward equity. Cash salary will grow as funding is secured.
