Created by IPO-exited founders and headquartered in London, Founders Factory offers founders capital, operational support from a team of 100 hands-on experts, and unrivalled access to a coalition of industry leading corporate partners.

What you’ll do: As our Tech and Data Lead, you will work across both our Studio and Accelerator as a technical expert and help turn new ideas into tangible outcomes.

  • You will work with cross-functional teams for each studio venture and act as the key technical stakeholder.
  • Alongside the team, you will turn ambiguous ideas into a product MVP within 6 months, validating your decisions commercially along the way, so that a founding team can grow from that MVP into a fully-fledged business.
  • Drive innovation and momentum through effective deployment of tech solutions
  • Identify improvements that can be implemented with new tools, workflows, processes, or structural changes and periodically review project progress to drive high quality outcomes 
  • Lead the development and testing of technical hypothesis for the companies you support
Advising the Accelerator portfolio:
  • We expect that you’ll spend up to 1 day/week on support for our accelerator portfolio. 
  • Support the tech leads of our startup teams to help set their technical strategy
  • Apply your own diverse software and machine learning development skills, knowledge & experience across a range of sectors, business models, & products
  • Ensure learnings from each team & project are brought together to feed back into consistent best practices and processes for the new startups we’re building
  • Provide technical mentorship for the members of the tech team
  • Proven ability to deliver products in a fast-paced tech startup environment
  • Experience across a variety of technical and AI solutions, including data, analytics and machine learning
  • Proven experience in developing and executing AI strategies that align with business objectives
  • You have a strong product and customer mentality
  • You care deeply about building products balancing speed and scale 
  • Being able to switch between hands-on execution and strategic advice, as needed.
  • Previous experience as a technical founder of an early stage startup is preferred
Characteristics:
  • Deals comfortably with the uncertainty of change and complex problems, effectively handles risk and can make a decision with incomplete information
  • Operates effectively, is calm under pressure and productive when plate spinning or when the future is unclear 
  • Have a strong bias for action and persists in accomplishing objectives despite setbacks (the hard thing about hard things is that they are f**king hard)
  • Able to understand the perspective of others and evaluate their own thinking whilst looking for feedback and continuously improve 
  • Ability to work across geographies, time zones and multi-functional teams
  • Coaching and mentoring others on technical aspects
What’s In it for you:
  • Competitive salary & EMI in the entire FF Portfolio 
  • Opportunity to work on groundbreaking projects in a dynamic and entrepreneurial environment
  • Access to a network of industry experts, mentors, and investors
  • Professional development opportunities and a culture of continuous learnings
How the process will look like

Your teammates will gather all requirements within our organization. Then, once priority has been discussed, you will decide as a team on the best solutions and architecture to meet these needs. In continuous increments and continuous communication between the team and stakeholders, you’re part of making data play an even more important (and understood) part withing Brand New Day.
