About the Role
The Company is in search of a visionary Founding CEO to spearhead the launch of a groundbreaking AI platform designed to optimize sourcing costs for manufacturers. The successful candidate will be at the forefront of addressing the pressing challenges faced by global manufacturers, including the need to cut costs in the face of rising material prices, geopolitical disruptions, and fragile supply chains. The role involves leading the transformation of procurement processes, which are currently hampered by manual methods and fragmented data, and driving the development of a solution that leverages AI to provide data-driven insights, cost modeling, and automated recommendations for smarter sourcing and improved supplier visibility.
As the Founding CEO, you will be responsible for winning customers, building the product in collaboration with the engineering team, raising capital to support the venture, and assembling a high-performing team to execute the vision. This is a strategic leadership position that requires a deep understanding of the procurement software market and a proven track record in driving product development, customer engagement, and business growth. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in AI, a passion for innovation, and the ability to turn procurement into a measurable driver of profitability for manufacturers.
