Founders Associate (FA)

A generalist role working directly alongside founders and C-suite executives at a startup. Founders Associates tackle high-priority projects across strategy, operations, sales, and product — acting as the CEO's 'right hand.' It's one of the fastest ways to learn how a startup operates.

Example

A Founders Associate at a Series A FinTech might own the GTM strategy one week, run investor prep the next, and then set up a new sales process — all reporting directly to the CEO.
