Founding Business Development Associate

Founding Business Development Associate

The way people discover companies is changing.

Instead of Google, they're asking ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity.

We're building Category Intelligence to help companies understand whether AI recommends them, ignores them, or recommends their competitors instead.

We're looking for someone who wants to help build this company from the ground up.

Not as employee #47.

As one of the first people in the room.

What you'll do

• Find companies that should be paying attention to AI visibility
• Figure out who actually makes buying decisions
• Start conversations that people want to reply to
• Book meetings and help close deals
• Experiment with new channels, messaging, and growth ideas
• Work directly with the founders to build the GTM engine

Who you are

• You can start conversations with almost anyone
• You enjoy the hunt more than following a script
• You're curious about startups, AI, marketing, and business
• You care about outcomes, not activity metrics
• You'd rather build the playbook than follow one

What you'll get

• Fixed salary from day one
• Performance incentives for deals closed
• A front-row seat to building an AI company from zero
• Real ownership and responsibility
• Direct access to founders and customers
• The freedom to test ideas and move fast

This is a full-time salaried role for someone who wants more than a job description.

If the idea of helping build a category, closing your first customers, and growing alongside the company sounds exciting, let's talk.
