Founder Associate

Lua AI (YC F25) is looking for an Founder Associate in United Kingdom

Job description


The Role:


  • Special Projects: Lead projects that don't have a natural home, from launching a new market pilot to researching and implementing a new feature.
  • Operations: Build and optimize internal processes to help the team scale. You will identify bottlenecks and fix them before they become issues.
  • Support cross-functional coordination - work across teams to align priorities.
  • Growth & BD: Act as a bridge to the market. You'll run sales experiments and help nurture early-stage partnerships.
  • Research: Conduct deep-market research and data analysis to provide the founder with the insights needed to make high-stakes decisions.
  • Founder Leverage: Manage high-stakes follow-ups, draft external communications, and prep presentations.


Who You Are

  • You are unfazed by ambiguity. If you don't know how to do something, you'll research it, learn it, and execute it.
  • High Agency - You don't wait for a checklist. You see a gap and you fill it.
  • Generalist Mindset - You are equally comfortable diving into a complex spreadsheet, writing a marketing blog post, or talking to customers.
  • Low Ego, High Ambition - You are happy to do whatever is required to move the needle.
  • Communication - You can distill complex ideas into clear, concise briefs and presentations.


Requirements

  • 2 + years of experience in a fast-paced environment (e.g., high-growth startup, top-tier consulting, investment banking, or previous founder experience).
  • Exceptional organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.
  • Strong analytical skills.


Why Join Us?

  • You will have a front-row seat to a high-growth start-up building the future of human-agent collaboration.
  • This role is designed to be a 12–24 month "tour of duty" that prepares you to take on a leadership role within the company or start your own venture.
