About the job

FutureSight is on the lookout for a dynamic and forward-thinking Founding CEO to spearhead the launch of a groundbreaking AI-driven reverse logistics orchestration platform. In today's commerce landscape, reverse logistics , encompassing all processes post-sale , has emerged as one of the most significant and least managed cost centers. High-volume workflows such as returns, warranties, exchanges, and recoveries are often handled through disparate tools, spreadsheets, and subjective decision-making.

Operations, finance, and customer service teams invest substantial resources into enforcing policies, tracking evidence, managing returns, and reconciling results , frequently lacking visibility into lost value or the timeline for cash recovery. This inefficiency leads to margin erosion, protracted cycle times, and increasing operational burdens in a scaling workflow.

Our mission is to create an AI-centric orchestration layer that integrates seamlessly between customers, fulfillment networks, and financial systems. Our platform will enforce policies at the entry point, capture evidence from the source, identify the most efficient return paths, and monitor outcomes until financial resolution , all without the need to replace existing ERPs, WMSs, or commerce systems.

This represents a unique opportunity to establish critical infrastructure in a market exceeding $700 billion globally, paving the way for modern organizations to manage costs, risks, and recovered value post-sale.
