The Opportunity
FutureSight is seeking an experienced, visionary entrepreneur to co-found its next B2B AI venture with us. This is a co-founder partnership with meaningful founder equity, not a salaried executive role.
This opportunity is open to repeat entrepreneurs who may already have an early-stage idea they're exploring, or who want to partner with FutureSight to validate, shape, and launch a new venture together. You will work alongside our team to test and refine ideas, kill the ones that don't hold up, and lead the one that does from inception through fundraising and beyond.
This is a full-time, exclusive commitment to building and owning a single B2B AI venture from the ground up.
