Ideal candidates will possess a robust background in logistics, operations, or technology, with demonstrated experience in leading startups or innovative ventures.

About the job

FutureSight is on the lookout for a dynamic and visionary Co-Founder and CEO to spearhead the development of a cutting-edge AI-enabled reverse logistics orchestration platform. In today's commercial landscape, reverse logistics, which encompasses all activities post-sale, has emerged as one of the most significant yet least managed cost centers. With high volumes of returns, warranties, exchanges, and recoveries, organizations continue to rely on disjointed tools, spreadsheets, and manual processes to navigate these workflows.

Our operations, finance, and customer service teams expend substantial resources enforcing policies, tracking evidence, managing returns, and reconciling outcomes, often lacking visibility into value loss or cash recovery timelines. This inefficiency results in margin erosion, prolonged cycle times, and increased operational burdens as workflows continue to grow.

We are committed to building an AI-first orchestration layer that seamlessly connects customers, fulfillment networks, and finance systems. Our platform will enforce policies at intake, capture evidence at the source, identify the optimal return pathways, and monitor outcomes until financial closure, without disrupting existing ERPs, WMSs, or commerce platforms.

This role presents a unique opportunity to shape infrastructure within a $700 billion+ global market, influencing how contemporary organizations manage costs, risks, and recovered value post-sale.

As the Founding CEO, you will:

  • Attract and secure customers, lead pilot initiatives, refine pricing strategies, and validate customer retention and expansion.
  • Oversee product development, collaborate with FutureSight’s product and engineering teams to launch Version 1.
  • Drive capital acquisition, lead the seed funding round with our initial investment efforts.
  • Assemble your team, recruit your founding members and establish a strong cultural foundation.
