• Experience at an early‑stage startup or as a founder, with a track record of building processes from zero to one across go‑to‑market, sales marketing, or hiring.

• Experience supporting strategic initiatives and fundraising or investor relations.

• Daily practical use of AI tools as part of your core workflow, along with strong analytical thinking and first-principles problem‑solving.
