Are you an AI engineer or ML developer with a big idea? Or dreaming of launching your own startup, but need the right co-founder and capital? We’re looking for technical AI founders to join our 12–15 week Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) program at soonami. You'll build your MVP, work with a matched co-founder (if needed), and pitch for $125K in seed funding. No need to quit your job just yet; you can start part-time and switch to full-time once funded.

• The program lasts 12-15 weeks.
• Develop an idea in ML, NLP, agents, LLMs, or AI infrastructure/tools, and build part of the MVP/basic framework in a 10-day sprint, then improve the product over 8-10 weeks based on feedback.

How It Works:

• Apply
• Complete a 10-day MVP sprint
• Join the 12–15 week EIR program
• Build with us and pitch to our Investment Committee
• Get funded and go full-time on your AI startup

Requirements:

• Experience with ML, NLP, agents, LLMs, or AI infrastructure/tools
• Desire to build and ship fast
• An idea or willingness to build one with us
• Founder mindset and ability to commit part-time for 3 months

Benefits:

• $1K/month stipend for 3 months
• Co-founder matching (if needed)
• Hands-on feedback, mentorship, and founder coaching
