A remote job posting is looking for ambitious entrepreneurs to step in as an AI Co-Founder / CCO and build their own startups. The role is fully remote and aimed at people who want to start and scale companies worth €1B or more. The people behind the offer are serial entrepreneurs themselves, and they say they want to back outlier personalities and other serial founders.
This is not a standard job. It is closer to a launchpad for founders who want a safety net while they build. The posting makes clear that the hired person will be supported at every stage — from hiring a team to finding product-market fit.
AI Co-Founder Role: Salary or €500k in Startup Funding
The offer gives the person hired a real choice on money. They can take a salary while they build their startup, because they will be directly employed by the company. Or they can choose up to €500k in funding instead.
That structure matters for founders who are not ready to go without income. It lets someone work on a new company without burning through personal savings first. The funding option, meanwhile, suits people who would rather have capital to grow fast.
Weekly Mentorship From Unicorn Founders
The posting names two backers directly. Paul Müller founded Adjust and had a €1.2B exit. Petter Made founded SumUp, valued at €8B. Both are described as eager to support strong founders in building €1B+ companies.
The hired AI Co-Founder / CCO gets 1:1 sparring with unicorn founders on a weekly basis. That is hands-on advice from people who have already built and sold large companies, not a one-time intro call.
"1:1 sparring with unicorn founders on a weekly basis." — the job posting
Network, Hiring and Distribution Support
The role comes with access to a community of the top 0.1% of founders, peers and investors. Team building is backed through a network of over 50,000 professionals, which helps the new founder hire strong talent quickly.
There is also support on distribution. The company says it will help the founder reach product-market fit and build up a sales force and marketing machine. Funding support for securing more capital is part of the package too.
- Salary while building, or up to €500k in funding
- Weekly 1:1 sparring with unicorn founders
- Community access to the top 0.1% of founders and investors
- Hiring support through a 50,000+ professional network
- Help with product-market fit, sales and marketing
Our Take: A Strong Offer, But Read the Fine Print
In our view, this posting is one of the more founder-friendly offers out there. Getting paid while you build, plus weekly time with people who have already had big exits, removes two of the biggest risks new founders face — no income and no guidance.
To put it plainly, the salary option is the real draw here. Most accelerator programs take equity and offer little cash. This one pays you as an employee instead. That is rare.
But readers should ask hard questions before applying. The posting does not say how much equity the company takes, how long the salary lasts, or what happens if the startup fails. The €500k funding option also needs clear terms — is it a loan, an investment, or a grant? None of this is spelled out.
Our advice: treat this as a serious opportunity, but get every term in writing. Ask about equity split, salary duration, and what control you keep over your own company. A great offer is only great if the details are clear. Founders who skip that step often regret it later.
For the right person — someone ambitious, ready to move fast, and comfortable with risk — this AI Co-Founder / CCO role could be the fastest route to building a €1B+ company with real backing behind it.
