Why candidates should join
YC-backed with real traction: CommodityAI is backed by Y Combinator and Rebel Fund and just crossed $2M ARR with 3x growth in 6 months. The sales pipeline is outpacing the team's ability to build and onboard.
First FDE hire with serious ownership: You'll be among the first 10 employees and directly shape how deployments get built and scaled. This isn't a support role—you own the full customer journey from sales handoff to stable production.
Compelling compensation and early-stage equity: $150K–$250K base with 0.25%–0.75% equity at a pre-seed company that's already generating real revenue.
Founded by operators who live the problem: The CEO is a former sugar trader with 10 years of experience. The team isn't guessing at customer pain—they've lived it firsthand.
A rare AI opportunity in an underserved industry: Commodities is one of the most operationally complex industries in the world and is massively underserved by modern software. You're not building another SaaS dashboard—you're automating global trade.
What you'll be doing
Own the full customer onboarding lifecycle, taking customers from sales handoff to live production within the first weeks of a three-month paid pilot.
Act as the technical PM for each customer: bridge engineering and customer stakeholders, manage timelines, and keep deployments unblocked.
Configure and tune AI agents and automation workflows to fit each customer's operational data and logic.
Build internal and external tooling to help future FDEs and customers onboard faster and more independently.
Lead customer calls—including kickoffs, progress updates, and training—across SMB, mid-market, and enterprise accounts, with up to 30% travel for enterprise customers globally.
