Founding CTO (AI/ML and Data Product)

A co-founder opportunity to build and launch an AI-powered venture within a 12-week program, focusing on problem validation, MVP development, and productization.

Location: Estonia

Responsibilities

• Validate a B2B problem where AI creates measurable value (time, cost, risk)
• Define MVP that’s product-first
• Design the data approach (collection, labeling, evaluation, monitoring)
• Ship a reliable prototype/MVP (APIs, pipelines, guardrails, feedback loops)
• Craft investor-ready tech narrative (moat, data advantage, roadmap)

Requirements

• 7+ years in software engineering with strong AI/ML or data product exposure
• Experience shipping to production (MLOps basics, monitoring, reliability)
• Strong product instinct: clarity on what “good enough” looks like for an MVP
• Founder mindset; you want ownership and upside, not a service role
• ~10–12h/week for 12 weeks

Benefits

• 12-week sprint to go from insight → MVP → iteration
• Weekly accountability + execution cadence (~10–12h/week)
• 500+ mentors including B2B, product, GTM, fundraising specialists
• 440+ alumni startups / 40+ countries for learning + intros
• CTO toolkit for AI ventures: scope, evaluation, deployment, “moat” story

Additional Information

• The cohort includes a participation ticket after acceptance to ensure commitment.
