Business Founder

We are searching for our futur associate, à Business-funder

France / Europe

Equity split: 70% founders / 30% CyGO Entrepreneurs

Unpaid venture-creation phase (first 15 months)

Before the role, the problem we are solving:

Cybersecurity in Europe is still dominated by service-heavy, human-intensive models.

They don't scale They don't keep up And they fail exactly where companies need reliability most: operational resilience.

At the same time:

• Cyber threats are accelerating with AI
• Enterprises expect guarantees, not tools
• Trust, continuity and resilience are becoming business-critical

Yet Europe lacks bold, product-driven cybersecurity platforms, designed from day one to operate at scale.

That's the gap we build for

What we are building and why it's different

At CyGO Entrepreneurs, we don't launch "one more security tool".

We build AI-driven cybersecurity SaaS platforms that:

• reduce dependency on services
• automate what must be reliable
• turn cybersecurity into a scalable, trusted operational layer

Our current venture topics include:

• Disrupting service-centric security models
• AI-powered cybersecurity platforms
• AI Trust & Cyber Resilience

Each startup is built to become a European reference, not a niche solution

Why you can trust this project

CyGO Entrepreneurs is the first European startup studio fully dedicated to cybersecurity.

What's already real not aspirational:

• Multiple project launched since 2024, one startup (Glev) and others on coming in 2026.
• Experts in Cybersecurity and seasoned entrepreneurs
• A validated product vision and build-ready concept
• A proven startup creation playbook
• Full studio support: tech, product, legal, admin, HR, fundraising

You're not joining an idea. You're entering a selective venture-building machine (2 startups per year).

This role is your founding story.

As CEO Co-Founder, you will:

• Turn a strong product vision into a real company
• Build the go-to-market and commercial strategy
• Close the first deals and reach €500K ARR within 18 months
• Lead fundraising with hands-on studio support
• Structure the business (BP, budget, ops)
• Recruit and lead the core team
• Co-build product vision, culture and roadmap with your CTO co-founder

You are accountable for business reality, not slides.

How your time will actually be spent

Indicative split (will evolve with the company):

• 50% Business & GTM
• First customers, sales motion, pricing, partnerships
• 30% Company building
• Fundraising, hiring, culture, ops, investor relations
• 20% Product leadership (with your CTO)
• Value proposition, prioritization, product-market alignment

This is hands-on by design.

Who we are looking for

Cybersecurity expertise is a plus, not a prerequisite.

What matters most is curiosity and ambition.

We bring the cyber depth.

You bring the business drive and leadership.

You should recognize yourself in most of this:

• Strong experience in B2B software (SaaS, software publishing, tech consulting)
• Proven background in sales, business development or P&L ownership
• Solid product culture: you understand how product, tech and business create value together
• Experience as a founder or early-stage team member
• Structured, resilient, autonomous, you operate well in uncertainty
• Natural leader, able to unite and elevate a team
• Fluent English required

If you're looking for a salaried role with equity upside later — this is not it.

Culture & soft skills is what we actually valued

• You decide with incomplete information
• You take responsibility when things don't work
• You communicate clearly with technical and non-technical profiles
• You prefer execution over storytelling
• You aim for impact, not comfort

This is a demanding environment and a deeply supportive one.

What this role becomes

At 12–24 months:

• You are the CEO of a funded cybersecurity startup
• You lead a growing team and a validated market
• You shape a product with European — and global — ambition
• Your influence grows with the company, not with a title

Equity & commitment

• 70% equity allocated to founders
• 30% to CyGO Entrepreneurs
• No salary during the first 15 months

Our process is simple and selective:

1. First conversation with Rahila, vision, ambition, mutual fit
2. Discussion with Aurélie, entrepreneurial posture & alignment
3. Product & tech session with Laurent ,product thinking, culture, execution
