Job Description
<p>We are building the <strong>AI platform for procurement.</strong></p> <p>Procurement manages the <strong>largest cost in enterprises</strong>. With tools from the past, trying to find savings in scattered data systems. Increasing cost pressure puts CPOs on the spot to <strong>change this</strong>.</p> <p>Our integrated <strong>AI</strong> <strong>agents</strong> autonomously run negotiations, ensure contracted savings actually reach the bottom line, and add intelligence to boring, manual tasks.</p> <p>We don’t shy away from tapping into complex data and add intelligence that <strong>changes the economics of procurement</strong>, moving far beyond simple agentic workflows.</p> <p>We are funded by <strong>top tier VCs</strong> (10x and Plug and Play) and business angels, and our founders have strategy consulting and high growth startup experience.</p> <p>We are three friends that have known each other for years. We <strong>have fun</strong> while moving quickly, and care about real outcomes.</p> <h2>Tasks</h2> <p>You're a <strong>Swiss Army knife</strong>: <strong>technically fluent</strong> <em>and</em> <strong>brilliant with customers</strong>, energized by switching between the two five times a day. One hour you're across the table from a CPO making our AI click; the next you're in the product, debugging why an agent didn't deliver and shaping the fix.</p> <p>You want to turn an "interesting AI demo" into a <strong>signed enterprise contract with proven value</strong>, and you refuse to let great ideas die in translation between customers and techies. This is a <strong>Founders Associate</strong> role in the truest sense: you work <strong>shoulder-to-shoulder with the founders</strong>, responsible for Customers and Product, with a front-row seat to how an enterprise AI company actually gets built, and real ownership of product and customer relationships from day one. You'll learn directly from founders who've built and scaled before.</p> <p>You sit at the <strong>intersection of product, sales, and the customer</strong>, working directly with the founders. Concretely:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Build demos that make CPOs lean forward.</strong> You craft sharp, tailored demos that turn our agents' capabilities into an obvious "we need this," built around the prospect's real data and real pain, not a generic walkthrough.</li> <li><strong>Drive Proof of Values to success.</strong> You support the POV from kickoff to outcome: define what "success" means up front, keep the customer engaged, debug what isn't working, and land a business case the customer can defend internally.</li> <li><strong>Run product discovery end to end.</strong> You prepare customer interviews to uncover what procurement teams actually need, map the competitive landscape so we know exactly where we win, and translate both into crisp feature requirements for the tech team.</li> <li><strong>Identify where our customers fumble.</strong> You use modern product management techniques t
