£70000 - £200000 per annum

We're hiring a CTO / Tech Lead to join a fully remote AI startup building what's best described as "Notion for AI agents" - a local Electron app where people use AI agents for strategy, planning, research, and knowledge work (not just coding).

This is a 3-person, pre-PMF startup, backed by $6m pre-seed funding at a $36m valuation, with ~4 years of runway. The company has deep roots in multi-agent systems and is now focused on turning that research edge into a high-leverage user-facing product.

You'll join as a founding-level Tech Lead, owning product + engineering, with a clear path to CTO as the company scales.

Why This Is Worth Your Time

  • Founding-level ownership with real technical and product control

  • Work on multi-agent systems at real scale, not surface-level wrappers

  • Build a user-facing AI product from first principles, not legacy code

  • Long runway, small team, and freedom to move fast without chaos

  • Remote-first, autonomous, low-process, high-trust environment


What You'll Do

~50% Product & Engineering Leadership

  • Own the user-facing product, roadmap, and technical direction

  • Talk directly to users, identify pain points, and iterate rapidly

  • Prototype and ship features fast (think week-long build cycles)

  • Lead engineering decisions while keeping velocity high and clean

~50% AI & Multi-Agent Systems

  • Explore how to scale from tens → hundreds → thousands of agents

  • Design and build multi-agent coordination and performance systems

  • Turn research ideas into shipping product capabilities, not papers

  • Work hands-on with agents used daily for product discovery and decision-making


What We're Looking For

Must-haves:

  • Strong product engineer background with end-to-end ownership

  • Experience with TypeScript and frontend work (Electron / desktop apps ideal)

  • Comfort working with Python and AI/agent systems on the backend

Nice-to-haves:

  • Experience with multi-agent systems, LLM orchestration, or AI tooling

  • Previous founding / early-stage startup experience

Practical Bits

  • Location: Fully Remote (Europe / US friendly)

  • Stage: Pre-PMF, Pre-Series A

  • Funding: $6m pre-seed, ~$36m valuation

  • Runway: ~4 years

  • Comp: Competitive salary + meaningful equity

  • Trajectory: Tech Lead → CTO as the company scales


If you're a Tech Lead or senior product engineer who wants to own a product end-to-end, push the frontier of AI agents, and grow into a CTO role with real autonomy and upside, let's talk. Apply now or book a short intro chat this week.
