Co-Founder / CTO

About the jobAutodyne is building the engine that runs companies.Every company now runs on dozens of tools and a growing number of AI agents, but nobody decides across them. The most expensive problems and best opportunities live in the gaps between teams: a spike in failed payments that support is already hearing about, a launch that legal and ops never signed off on, an at-risk customer that sales, success and finance each see a piece of.Autodyne connects to the tools a company already uses, finds what's falling between them, and surfaces proactive decisions, each with the expected impact across different departments. People approve those decisions, and AI agents carry them out. Every outcome is measured, so Autodyne learns what works and earns the trust to make more decisions on its own. The long-term goal: a company that largely runs itself and is only steered by humans.We're currently raising a pre-seed, and building the MVP against a detailed architecture we'll walk you through on day one. I'm looking for someone to build this company with - a true co-founder and CTO.I'm technical too, so this is a partnership of builders.
