Technical CoFounder/CTO - equity share The role We're looking for a hands-on technical co-founder/CTO to own the build and scale of CentricAi. This isn’t a “come build my idea” situation. We're an operator founder from the trenches of courier ops — we own GTM, pilots, courier network, ops, and customer workflows. You’ll own product engineering, architecture, and shipping the MVP into real usage. What you’ll build (first 90 days) Dispatcher console (web): job creation, live map view, assignment, exception handling, SLA tracking Driver web app: accept/complete jobs, live tracking, status updates, POD (photo/signature time/location) Core dispatch logic: assignment rules/scoring, SLA prioritisation, capacity handling ETAs that don’t lie: live re-forecasting using routing signals driver location Comms hooks: customer notifications (SMS/WhatsApp/email) internal ops alerts Basic analytics: on-time %, pickup/delivery ETA accuracy, courier performance signals Responsibilities (ongoing) Own architecture delivery velocity (MVP → v1 → scale) Build with reliability observability (logging, metrics, audit trail) Integrate mapping/routing messaging providers Establish security basics (auth, permissions, data handling) Work tightly with the CEO to turn ops reality into product decisions fast What we're looking for (must-haves) Strong full-stack ability (frontend backend database) Comfortable shipping scrappy but solid MVPs quickly Experience with real-time location/tracking or event-driven systems is a big plus Good product instincts: you care about UX, edge cases, and operational workflows Calm under pressure, direct communicator, builder mentality Nice-to-haves Routing/optimisation, ETA modelling, geofencing, fleet/dispatch tooling exposure Map APIs (Google/Mapbox), background jobs/queues, websockets Payments/invoicing, multi-tenant SaaS experience Familiarity with courier ops / gig workforce tooling Tech direction (flexible) We're not religious about stack — we care about shipping. Typical fit: Next.js/React Node or Python Postgres (Supabase ok) hosted infra. We’ll choose what gets us to pilots fastest. What you get Co-founder equity (meaningful ownership; structure depends on commitment contribution) Real-world problem, real feedback loop, fast iteration (no “build for months in a cave”) Operator founder who brings: courier network, pilot outreach, workflows, SLA reality, sales hustle A product with clear wedge: predictability control beats “fast” when customers are fed up Stage what we lack We’re ops-heavy and engineering-light. The gap is build ownership and shipping velocity. That’s why this role matters. How to apply Send: A short intro what you’re building/building history Your preferred stack 1–2 examples of products you’ve shipped (links, GitHub, or screenshots) Your availability (hours/week) and location (UK/remote) Quick interview process 20-min founder chat (fit speed expectations) 45-min deep dive (architecture approach MVP plan) Build sprint alignment (small scoped test or walkthrough of past work)
