About the Company

Our partner is an early-stage fintech company building a product for institutional finance. The company is actively working with major investment banks, private equity firms, and hedge funds, and is backed by strong investors including OpenAI’s Startup Fund. With a lean, technical-first team in place, the company is now building out its foundational go-to-market function.

The Role

Our partner is hiring multiple Founding GTM hires (rolling basis) to help build and scale the company’s commercial motion from the ground up. This is a high-ownership role at the intersection of sales, client success, growth, and strategy.

• Serve as the primary point of contact for early customers
• Drive customer adoption and gather product feedback
• Support growth initiatives including branding and waitlist conversion
• Help shape the GTM strategy, messaging, and commercial playbook

This is not a narrow sales role — it’s a broad, early-stage GTM builder seat with significant visibility and influence.
