Founders Associate - AI & Product

Melotech is scaling fast, and we hire people who take full ownership from day one. As Founders Associate - AI & Product, you take charge of a complete revenue-generating product: the numbers, the roadmap, the execution. You are a technical generalist working directly alongside our founders, with AI woven through everything you do. On a typical day, your tasks may include:

• Owning a revenue-generating product end to end, commercially and operationally, from day one

• Building tools, automations and real products with AI, going from idea to production at lightspeed, with AI tools as your daily coworkers

• Living in the data: running your own analysis, forming your own views, and deciding off the evidence

• Moving across product, growth and operations, wherever the leverage is that week

• Going deep and hard on any topic that moves the number, with the freedom to expand your scope as fast as you perform

• Making bold calls that shape your product's trajectory and our company

We're looking for a business mind who builds, or a builder with sharp commercial instincts. You've already proven you're exceptional somewhere, and now you want real ownership. Typically, your profile will look like this:

• AI-native for real: you build with AI tools every day and can point to at least one tool, automation or product you created yourself

• You combine business and tech: a business background with a visible technical side (a serious bootcamp, a data science or CS conversion master's, shipped projects), or a technical degree (CS, math, engineering) paired with a commercial track record (product roles, consulting, an early startup stint)

• Strong business sense: you think in revenue, unit economics and what actually moves the number

• An exceptional track record: a top university, a top-tier firm or fund, or an early core role at a top-VC-backed startup where you progressed fast

• Evidence of drive and curiosity: hackathons, tech and startup university societies, side projects, etc

• You thrive in a fast-paced and performance-oriented environment

• A big plus: founder DNA (you've started something before, even small, even failed), and you're internet-native. You know what's trending, what's breaking, and you're into music, media, gaming or social

We hire on a rolling basis. Earliest starting date is always ASAP. Once you begin our process, you can progress from start to offer within a week, depending on how quickly you can move through each stage:

• Initial interview: 30-minute introductory call - getting to know you

• Case interview: 90-minute case discussion - present and debate your skills

• Founder interview: 90-minute interview with our CEO - going deep on all topics

• Offer, contract signing and onboarding
