Co-Founder & CEO - AI Reverse Logistics Orchestration Platform

FutureSight • San Francisco, CA

7h

About The Position

FutureSight is seeking a Co-Founder & CEO to lead a new AI-native reverse logistics orchestration venture. This is a co-founder partnership with meaningful founder equity, not a salaried executive role. The venture aims to address the significant cost and control challenges in modern commerce's reverse logistics processes (returns, warranties, exchanges, recoveries). The platform will be an AI-first orchestration layer that integrates with existing systems to enforce policy, optimize return paths (recovery, resale, exchange, credit, refurbishment, or return to inventory), and track outcomes to financial closure. The goal is to enable organizations to actively control cost, risk, and recovered value after the sale. FutureSight, a venture studio with experienced founders, operators, and designers, will provide pre-seed capital, studio resources (design, engineering, growth, fundraising support), and access to an investor and advisor network. The role involves setting the venture's direction, leading execution, refining strategy, driving customer development, partnering on product development, leading seed fundraising, and recruiting the founding team.

Requirements

• Previous founding experience at a venture-backed company.
• Demonstrated success in B2B SaaS go-to-market, including sales and customer engagement.
• Fundraising fluency, with the ability to develop investor narratives and close capital.
• Proven ability to attract, develop, and retain top talent.
• Clear-eyed understanding of the risks and demands of co-founding a venture-backed company.
• Direct exposure to operations-heavy commerce, supply chain, or logistics environments, with hands-on experience in returns, warranty, fulfillment, or post-sale workflows.
• Familiarity with AI agents/LLMs.

Responsibilities

• Set the direction of the venture and lead its execution.
• Refine the ICP, pricing model, and product positioning, including the choice of execution path between consumer returns–led (B2C commerce) and warranty & credit–led (B2B supply chains).
• Lead pilots with operations-heavy commerce, retail, or supply chain organizations, convert them to paid engagements, and build the go-to-market motion.
• Partner with the FutureSight product and engineering team to ship V1 and iterate on user feedback, with a focus on intake intelligence, policy enforcement, dynamic routing, and financial closure.
• Lead the seed raise, supported by FutureSight's network and traction.
• Recruit and lead the founding team, and establish the cultural foundation of the company.

Benefits

• Founder equity with meaningful ownership from inception
• Pre-seed capital committed by FutureSight for early hires and MVP development
• Potential for follow-on funding
• Studio resources, including embedded design, engineering, growth, and fundraising support from day one
• Investor and advisor network across commerce, supply chain, vertical AI, and early-stage capital markets
