Company GenAI is spurring enterprises to rethink their innovation development processes. Lower experimentation costs and more accessible and generalized capabilities appeal to both pro developers and citizen developers in these companies, but existing enterprise cultures, procedures, and infrastructure hinder innovation.

Madrona Venture Labs (MVL) is incubating a new startup that will help companies speed up safe innovation within the enterprise by applying a software-driven, holistic approach that streamlines development and deployment processes and resource allocation for both Gen AI and traditional applications.

The Founder-in-Residence/CEO position with our team at MVL is designed to match successful entrepreneurs with business ideas that have the potential to be industry-changing. We now have an opening for a visionary leader to help us launch this new company.

Product Development & Launch: Collaborate with the technical team to understand engineering workflows, ensuring a deep comprehension of the technology behind the product. Translate technical concepts into strategic business objectives and vice versa.
Raising Capital & Managing Finances: Lead fundraising initiatives to secure capital for the organization's operations, expansions, or strategic projects. Develop and execute comprehensive financial strategies aligned with the company's business objectives.
Investor Relations: Act as the primary point of contact for investors, communicating the company's financial performance, strategy, and critical developments. Develop and deliver compelling presentations to potential investors.
Market Analysis & Customer Engagement: Conduct market research to identify trends, opportunities, and potential challenges. Engage with customers to understand their needs, gather feedback, and iterate on the product accordingly.
