FutureSight

FutureSight is hiring an experienced and visionary Founding CEO to lead HawkAI, an autonomous voice and messaging assistant for logistics teams. Logistics is a $26B+ industry drowning in manual communications. Freight brokerages, carriers, and warehouses make thousands of calls and emails daily.

HawkAI’s AI workers autonomously handle 90%+ of routine communications from track-and-trace calls, load status updates, to shipment confirmations, so human teams can focus on exceptions and customer relationships.

As Founding CEO, you will:

  • Win customers — Run pilots, shape pricing, and validate retention + expansion
  • Build the product — Work with FutureSight’s product/engineering pod to launch V1
  • Raise capital — Lead the seed raise with our initial cheque
  • Build your team — Hire your founding team and set the cultural foundation

About FutureSight

FutureSight is a venture studio that co-creates and invests in B2B SaaS and Vertical AI startups alongside exceptional entrepreneurs. We give founders an unfair advantage — pairing hands-on studio support with early capital, reducing risk and increasing the odds of success by 10x.

We’re led by a cross-functional team of builders and investors. Kevin Nguyen and Alan Smith lead venture design and product strategy. Prathna Ramesh applies her experience as a venture investor with capital strategy in every new business. Dennis Ensing mentors our ventures with operational and strategic expertise, Krista LaRiviere brings years of entrepreneurial and marketing experience as a multi-time exited founder, and Anupama Joshi drives founder excellence. John Carbrey (San Francisco), a successful software entrepreneur and people leader, adds deep insight into scaling startups from 0 to 1, having built and exited multiple prior SaaS ventures.

What We Bring

  • Validated problem — You will enter a venture with a proven market need and strong momentum toward building and scaling
  • Studio bench strength — Designers, engineers, growth marketers, and fundraising pros are embedded from Day 1
  • Capital commitment — Initial pre-seed funding for early hires and building the MVP with potential for follow-on funding, and access to our investor and advisor network

What You Bring

  • Founder-level drive — You’re motivated to co-found a new venture as the CEO. With or without us, this is your calling
  • Startup scrappiness — You know what you’re signing up for. You’re familiar with the scrappiness of owning something from start to finish
  • Previous founding experience — You have co-founded a product company or B2B SaaS venture or have been at a venture-backed company
  • Risk appetite and capacity — Read more on our post on the Entrepreneurial Risk Profile
  • GTM chops — Proven success in B2B SaaS sales, marketing, and customer engagement
  • Fundraising fluency — Able to craft investor narratives and close capital; well-networked in fintech and early-stage communities
  • People leadership — Magnet for top talent; coach and culture carrier
  • Industry experience – Background in logistics, supply chain, freight brokerage, transportation, or B2B enterprise software that serves these industries
  • Bonus: Exposure to AI agents/LLMs

What You Can Expect

  • Daily active engagement with our team to: launch initial product, achieve initial market traction and prepare for seed fundraise
  • Full P/L ownership of the new entity
  • A significant equity stake in the business
  • This is a full-time role; we are looking for someone to commit full-time and exclusively to building and owning a new SaaS venture
