Co-Founder & CEO (IT Consulting Startup)

We are seeking an ambitious, high-conviction Co-Founder & CEO with proven B2B IT sales and startup experience to lead our IT consulting startup from 0 to 1.

You will join a founding team with strong technical execution capabilities (cloud, software engineering, AI, data architecture) to build, launch, and scale high-margin consulting services.

Because we are bootstrapping our initial growth phase, this position does not offer a fixed base salary at start. Instead, we offer a substantial co-founder equity percentage(applicable after 6 Months) along with an immediate, high-percentage profit share on generated revenue, transitioning into standard executive compensation once predictable cash flow or funding milestones are met.

Compensation & Risk Structure

• Equity: Significant Co-Founder Equity (vesting schedule & cliff to be agreed upon).
  

• Initial Pay: 0 Base Salary during the initial build/pre-revenue phase.
  

• Profit Share: Direct payout/percentage share on gross profits / revenue generated from signed consulting contracts.
  

• Future Transition: Clear milestone roadmap to institute competitive executive base salaries post target revenue / seed capital threshold.
  

Core Responsibilities

1. Go-To-Market (GTM) & Business Development (70% Focus Initially)

• Lead client acquisition end-to-end: lead generation, pitching enterprise software/cloud consulting services, contract negotiation, and closing.
  

• Leverage personal and professional networks to secure initial enterprise, mid-market, or SMB clients in target markets (US, Europe, Middle East, India).
  

• Design service packages, pricing models (Fixed-Cost, Time & Materials, Dedicated Engineering Teams), and margin structures.
  

2. Strategy, Positioning & P&L Leadership

• Define target verticals, core offerings, and long-term commercial strategy.
  

• Take full ownership of revenue, cash-flow management, and unit economics.
  

• Position the firm as a high-value consulting partner rather than a low-cost vendor.
  

3. Investor Relations & Capital Raising (If Applicable)

• Pitch to seed/angel investors and strategic partners when capital infusion is required for scale.
  

• Build pitch decks, investor pipelines, and cap table governance.
  

4. Operational & Delivery Oversight

• Collaborate with technical co-founders to align client requirements with engineering execution.
  

• Help recruit initial business development, account management, and client-facing consulting talent as cash flow expands.
