Co-Founder

Non-Technical Co-Founder, PitchCentrichttps://www.pitchcentric.com Location: SF Bay Area, required · Equity: ~20%-35% · Stage: Pre funding, product liveThe PR industry is a landline. We are the thing that replaces it.For seventy years, reputation ran through brokers. CNN. BBC. The New York Post. You paid an agency a retainer, they traded favors with editors, and if you were lucky your story ran once and died by Tuesday.That world is ending, and not slowly. The audience already left. A single Joe Rogan episode reaches more people than a prime time cable slot. Tucker Carlson walked out of the network and the audience followed him, not the building. Attention now belongs to creators: podcasters, independent journalists, newsletter operators. The gate is still standing. Nobody guards it anymore.PitchCentric is the machine built for the world after the brokers.What we have already builtThis is not a deck and a dream. The product is live.800K+ podcasts indexed with enriched contact data, audience signals, and episode level context.A Booking Probability engine that scores, for any guest and any show, the actual likelihood of landing the booking. Not vanity metrics. A prediction.MCP native AI agents. PitchCentric was built agent first. Our agents research shows, write pitches grounded in what a host actually said in recent episodes, send from the client's own inbox, detect replies, and close the loop to a booking. A founder can run a PR campaign from a chat window that would have cost $8,000 a month at an agency.A team of four already shipping. One developer, one project manager, one SEO agent builder, and one Customer Success executive are on the project today. And around 30 Agents. You are not employee one. You are the missing founder.Where this goesPhase 1, live now: Podcast booking at scale. The wedge into every founder, executive, and expert who needs distribution.Phase 2: The press itself. The same agentic pipeline pointed at journalists, newsletters, and independent media. Every pitch grounded in what that writer actually covers, sent and followed up autonomously.Phase 3: The executive reputation engine. Every reputation tool today monitors generic brand keywords. That is monitoring the smoke. We will model the fire. Who does the executive team actually associate with? What is the network level probability of a reputational event before it detonates? Look at the biggest collapses of the last decade: the warning signs and the whisper press showed up long before the headlines did. We will build the system that sees it coming, for boards and executive teams, not for logo mentions.One platform: earn the reputation, then defend it. That is the entire PR industry, replaced by software.Who we are looking forA true co-founder. Not employee number two with a fancy title, and not an advisor who shows up for board dinners.5 to 10 years of industry experience. PR, communications, media or podcasting go to market. You have seen the agency model from the inside and you know exactly where it is rotting.You understand what co-founder means. You will sell before the product is finished, recruit before there is a brand, and do unglamorous work no job description would ever list. Ambiguity is the job.Based in the Bay Area. We move at whiteboard speed, not calendar invite speed. We want to stay within the ecosystem and raise soon. Previous startup experience is a plus. If you have lived the zero to one chaos before, you already know what you are signing up for. That knowledge is worth a lot to us.Commercial instinct. You can open doors, close revenue, and turn early customers into the case studies that raise the round.Conviction about the thesis. If you think CNN/CNBC/Fox is coming back, this is not your company. If you think the next decade of influence belongs to creators, keep reading.The deal, stated plainlyAround 25% equity on a standard vesting schedule with a cliff. Real ownership, earned over time, like every serious founding team on earth.A small stipend until we raise. Enough to keep the lights on, not a salary. When funding closes, compensation normalizes.A seat at the very top of the cap table of a company going after an industry that bills tens of billions a year for work software can now do better.If you need a market salary today, that is a completely legitimate need. It is also a different job posting.
