Every building on earth has been broadcasting its own operational data for decades. Every phone, wearable, sensor, and machine, constantly emitting signal. Nobody ever built the infrastructure to read it. We did.
We are a small founding team that has built a passive RF spatial intelligence platform. A single node replaces a standard enterprise WiFi access point and, from that same ceiling mount, identifies, locates, and authenticates every wireless device in range with sub-10cm accuracy in three dimensions, across WiFi, BLE, UWB, cellular, and RFID at once. No tags. No cameras. No app. No opt-in. It works on the patient who will not wear a badge, the pallet nobody tagged, and the device that should not be on the trading floor.
Twenty issued patents. A working prototype validated at sub-10cm. One node replaces three to four legacy real-time location systems at a fraction of the cost, because it ships inside a WiFi refresh line item instead of a new capital project.
Every major wireless transition has produced exactly one platform company. WiFi produced Cisco. Mobile produced Qualcomm. The physical intelligence layer, the layer that tells every other system where things actually are, has never had one. That is the company we are building.
We are looking for the founding CEO who takes this from validated technology to a company: closes the seed round, signs the first enterprise customers, and builds the commercial engine from zero. Six markets have real, funded pain right now, retail loss prevention, healthcare asset visibility, commercial real estate, corrections, financial services compliance, and supply chain custody, and you will make the call on where we go first.
The honest part: we are early. Prototype stage, pre-revenue, seed not yet started/closed. Compensation is founding equity, with base salary beginning once the seed round closes. This is a fit for someone who has already had a prior exit, liquidity event, or wants to grind with the other founders, and wants the next real thing to build, not someone who needs current income right now.
You are a strong fit if you have been CEO, President, or founder of a hardware, IoT, or supply chain intelligence company with real commercial or exit outcomes, have personally raised institutional venture capital and know exactly which partner you would call to lead a seed round, and have sold into enterprise operations, supply chain, IT, or asset management buyers.
If that's you, reply with three things: the company you built or scaled and the outcome, the name of one investor you would call today, and one sentence on why this, why now, why you.
Principals only. No recruiters, no agencies, no pay-to-apply schemes.
