Within 1 week of application

Within 1 week of intro call
Real work alongside the founder, 4–40 hours depending on role. We pay your day rate. Scoped so it is useful to us whether or not we hire you.

What it’s like to work here
Compensation philosophy
No tricks. No “competitive” word-games.
No “competitive comp” mystery — the band on the role page is what you get paid.
Four-year vest, one-year cliff. The bet is real and so is the upside.
If we hire you above the band, we move the whole band. We do not create one-off asymmetries.
The first offer is the offer. We do not reward candidates who negotiate over candidates who do not.
We adjust to local cost-of-living. UAE, EU, and US ranges differ.
Bands move up as the company stage moves. Reviewed once a year, transparently.
Working from anywhere — within limits
Honest filters
If any of these describe you, please don’t apply. It will waste your time and ours.

FAQ
Yes — all three are open as of May 2026. We expect to close each within two-to-three months once we have the right candidate pipeline.
For Founding Engineer and Founding Designer, yes if needed. For Founding GTM, you need to be UAE-based or relocate within 60 days.
Pre-pilot, founder-team scope. Equity is meaningful at this stage; specifics land in the offer letter.
We have a founder. The Founding roles are senior IC and early lead, not co-founder. We do not expect this to change.
We are optimising for full-time founding-team members. We occasionally take six-month senior contracts; ask if it fits.
Yes. Every serious candidate gets a demo account and a 30-minute tour. Ask in your application.
