Founder’s Associate | Start-up | Cybersecurity & AI | London | Hybrid

About the Company

Hyre AI is partnering with a fast-growing, well-funded cybersecurity company on a mission to solve one of the biggest challenges on the modern internet: proving who’s human in a world dominated by bots, scripts, and AI impersonators. Their technology protects some of the most trusted names in financial services and beyond, and they’ve just raised a multi-million seed round to accelerate growth. Now they’re hiring a founder’s associate to join a small, exceptional team building the future of online trust.

About the Role

As a Founder’s Associate, you’ll work directly with the founders, supporting how the company explores, applies, and scales AI across the business.

You’ll be involved in building processes across the business, helping shape how projects are scoped, tested, and delivered in practice.
