Non-Technical Co-Founder – AI & Developer Tools

About Aeternexus & IdeaAI
Aeternexus, Inc. (Delaware C-Corp), is building the next generation of privacy-first, local-first developer tools. Our flagship product, IdeaAI, is an autonomous AI coding agent designed for developers and B2B engineering teams who prioritize data security and zero-cloud dependency. IdeaAI brings local Ollama-powered intelligence directly to developers' desktops without exposing proprietary codebases.
The Opportunity
We are looking for a visionary, US-based Non-Technical Co-Founder (GTM & Growth) to join our core team. As our commercial and strategic counterpart, you will lead go-to-market execution, shape enterprise positioning for engineering teams, CTOs, and regulated industries, and drive our expansion into the Silicon Valley ecosystem.
What We Are Building For
Local & Secure Architecture: Designed to keep proprietary source code and sensitive development data local, eliminating third-party API leak risks and expensive token overheads.
Autonomous Workflows: Shifting from simple code assistants to full background execution.
Target Market & Customer Needs: Targeting engineering teams, CTOs, and enterprise developers who are constrained by strict compliance and cannot use cloud-dependent AI tools.
Partnership & Structure
To ensure absolute alignment and true partnership from day one, this is a strategic co-founder opportunity.
Note on Compensation: As a bootstrapped Delaware C-Corp preparing for formal angel/seed acceleration, this phase is structured entirely around equity ownership and long-term value creation rather than immediate cash salaries. We are looking for an entrepreneurial co-founder who wants to co-own the upside, shape the company’s trajectory, and lead our fundraising and revenue generation from the ground up.
Who You Are
Proven experience in B2B SaaS, developer tools (DevTools), or AI GTM strategies.
Deeply networked within the US startup / SF tech ecosystem (connections to CTOs, engineering leads, or investors).
A high-agency builder who thrives in 0→1 environments, loves narrative positioning, and wants to be a co-owner of the company.
If you are obsessed with developer productivity, data privacy, and scaling early-stage AI infrastructure, let’s connect.
