Founder's Associate

Role Title: Founder’s Associate (Strategy, Tech & Operations)

Timeline: August - December 2026

Compensation: Completion Stipend Location: New York City (Hybrid)

The Vision: Efficiency Through Innovation

Note on the Role: This is not a position for someone looking to become a traditional real estate agent, Although having worked in the field or holding a license is a plus. Instead, this is a role for a builder and a strategist. You will work directly with the CEO to help rethink a legacy industry by bringing AI, automation, and tech-driven efficiency to a space that has functioned the same way for decades. You are here to help us build a modern platform, not just sell property.

The Core Pillars

1. CEO Shadowing & Company Dynamics

Executive Exposure: Gain a front-row seat to the daily operations of a growing NYC brokerage. You will witness the "moving parts" of scaling a business in the world’s most competitive market.

Brokerage Dynamics: Learn the nuances of both commercial and residential sectors—not to sell, but to understand the mechanics of how the business actually runs.

Relationship Management: Observe and assist in managing high-level customer and partner relationships, learning the art of the "NYC deal."

2. Tech Strategy & AI Implementation

The AI Edge: Actively identify opportunities to integrate AI prompts and automation into our daily workflows. You will be tasked with finding tech "fixes" that move the needle on company performance.

Business Development: Help market the firm’s unique tech-forward culture to prospective talent as we hire and scale our team of agents.

Tech Scouting: Research and propose new platforms that improve everything from lead generation to internal communications.

3. Growth Storytelling

Documenting the Journey: Share the progress of the company’s growth. You will use social media to communicate the firm’s evolution, tech milestones, and the reality of building a modern brokerage in real-time.

Strategic Brand Voice: Ensure our public-facing image reflects our "startup vibe" and tech-first mindset.

Who You Are

The "Out-of-the-Box" Thinker: You don't just follow a manual. When you see a hurdle, your first instinct is to ask: "Is there a tech or AI solution for this?"

Entrepreneurial Mindset: You are fascinated by what it takes to build a great company. You understand that "vibe" and "efficiency" are equally important to a firm's success.

Clear Communicator: You can take complex ideas (like a new tech integration or a company milestone) and share them effectively through social media and digital platforms.

Adaptive & High-Energy: You thrive in a fast-paced environment where the daily agenda can shift based on new opportunities.

Compensation & Growth
