Founder @Listed Factory | Tech Entrepreneur | Building the Future of Direct Manufacturing Trade | B2B & D2C Marketplace Innovator
* Location: London, UK (Hybrid/Remote UK Based)
* Compensation: Significant Co-founder Equity Stake
About Listed Factory:
Listed Factory is on a mission to build the digital backbone for Britain's industrial economy. We are a community-focused B2B marketplace that empowers UK manufacturers to grow by connecting them to new buyers, while giving businesses a single, trusted platform to source locally and build resilient, national supply chains. We have a validated MVP, a clear vision for the future, and are preparing for our first round of funding.
The Opportunity:
This is not a salaried role; it is a co-founder position for an individual with the entrepreneurial drive to build a billion-dollar company from the ground up. You will be a core member of the founding team, working directly alongside the CEO to shape the company's strategy, culture, and ultimate success. You will have complete ownership of the technology vision and execution, with the opportunity to build a world-class engineering team and a platform that will redefine an entire industry. This is a chance to build your legacy.
Your Role & Responsibilities:
* Take full ownership of the Listed Factory technology strategy, from the current MVP to a globally scalable V2 platform.
* Manage, maintain, and optimize our current WordPress-based marketplace to support initial business growth.
* Architect and lead the development of "Listed Factory V2," making critical decisions on frameworks, languages, and cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS/GCP/Azure).
* Recruit, hire, lead, and mentor a high-performing engineering team.
* Collaborate with the CEO to translate business and product goals into a clear technical roadmap and actionable sprints.
* Ensure the platform is secure, performant, scalable, and reliable.
* Represent the company's technology vision to investors, partners, and key customers.
Who We Are Looking For:
* An Experienced Technologist with a Business Mindset: You are passionate about using technology to solve real-world business problems. You think about customer value and revenue, not just code.
* A Pragmatic Builder: You have experience with both off-the-shelf platforms (like WordPress) and custom-built applications. You know when to use existing tools to move fast and when to invest in custom solutions for a long-term advantage.
* A Proven Leader: You have experience leading projects and, ideally, have managed other developers. You are excited about the prospect of building and mentoring a team.
* A Startup Veteran (or have the mindset): You thrive in a fast-paced environment, are comfortable with ambiguity, and have the grit to navigate the founder journey. Previous startup or founding experience is a massive plus.
* Mission-Aligned: You are genuinely excited by our mission to support UK manufacturing and build a more resilient domestic economy.
* Technical Skills: You likely have full-stack development experience, a strong understanding of modern cloud architecture, database management, and API integrations. The specific stack for V2 is open for discussion—you will be the one to decide it.
What We Offer:
* A significant and meaningful equity stake as a co-founder in a high-growth business with a clear path to venture funding.
* The opportunity to have a profound impact on a major UK industry and build a company from its earliest days.
* Full autonomy over the company's technology direction.
* A partnership with a dedicated, experienced business-focused co-founder.
Application Process:
* Application screening.
* Technical pitch on building e-commerce technology stack. Examples from past or thorough research on development via recorded video session.
* Business, Strategy and Technology brainstorming live session.
* Meeting with stakeholders and investors.
