Job Description
Co-Founder, CEO-track — U.S.-based only
\nWe're looking for an entrepreneur who has already built, sold or helped build a company — and is ready to lead the next big one. You already have the experience. Your main entrepreneurial story is still ahead.
\nAbout PROFID
\nPROFID is building a new global trust layer for the future economy.
\nIf Visa built the infrastructure for the movement of money, PROFID is building the infrastructure for the movement of trust — between companies, individuals, platforms, and AI systems.
\nWe see the opportunity to build trust infrastructure at global scale — with the potential to create a trillion-dollar category.
\nThis is not a small SaaS business and not another verification service.
\nThis is a category-defining company being built for a world where traditional ways of checking people, reputation, and reliability are no longer enough.
\nWhere We Are Now
\n• $2M+ invested by the founder
\n• Working product
\n• Engineering leadership with ex-Uber Director of Engineering background
\n• Founder with 5+ startup launches and 2 exits
\n• First sales; conversations with companies from small businesses to large enterprises
\n• Fundraising materials and process substantially prepared
\nWhy Join Now
\nThe foundation is already built. Now we're looking for a partner who will lead the business and, together with the founder, turn it into a global company.
\nWho We're Looking For
\nYour path here may look different:
\n• your previous startup ended, and you're ready for the next big one;
\n• you sold your company and want a bigger story;
\n• you've been a strong #2 — building a company next to its founder — and you've outgrown that seat.
\nThe motivation is the same: you already have the experience, and your main entrepreneurial story is still ahead.
\nYou have carried real entrepreneurial responsibility — won customers, raised money or built a business from zero. Your results, not your title. Now you want to lead the company and own a stake that matches your contribution.
\nU.S.-based. Accelerator alumni (YC, Techstars, Antler and similar) are especially welcome; identity, screening, HR-tech or fintech experience is a plus.
\nThe Role
\nCo-Founder, CEO-track. You lead the business — sales, fundraising, team — and become CEO as you take over the company. The founder moves to Executive Chairman and stays with you on product, IP and strategy.
\nTerms
\nCo-founder-size equity with vesting. No salary before the round, market salary after. Board seat.
\nHow to Apply
\nApply here, then message the job poster with a few lines on:
\n1. The company you built or helped build — your role and what happened to it.
\n2. A customer you closed or a round you raised yourself.
\n3. Which customer segment you'd take PROFID to first — and why.
\nFirst call is with the founder's team, then with the founder.
