Banks still run their most critical, regulated work by hand: reading letters and emails, re-keying data across systems, chasing missing info. Our AI agents run those processes end to end, with full audit trails and bank-grade security.
The MissionAs a Founders Associate you work shoulder to shoulder with the three founders on whatever matters most to create impact for Porters and our clients.
Your responsibilitiesOwn the most important and urgent thing on the table that week: Sometimes that's strategic, sometimes it's unglamorous logistics. Whatever moves the company.
Go deep on clients and GTM: research prospects, prep for client conversations, build the follow-ups, tighten the pipeline, help us win and keep customers. This is where you'll spend most of your time.
Build: You're AI-pilled and you reach for tools instead of waiting for headcount. Automate the manual, prototype the thing, ship the internal workflow. You'll have access to any model or tool you want, no questions asked.
Keep Porters fast-moving and unblocked.
Highly motivated, high ownership. You see the gap and close it without being asked.
You build with AI today, not in theory. Show us something you've made.
Generalist who's comfortable in ambiguity and switches context fast.
High-growth startup, consulting, or a similar pressure-cooker background is a plus, not a hard requirement. We care that you can do the job, not that you've sat next to it. Prove it.
You want to be part of something special this early, and your work ethic matches that ambition. We're hiring for that and for culture as much as for skills.
Logistical Requirement: Must be able to work on-site in Zurich, Switzerland.
Direct Impact: You won't be a cog in a machine. You will work directly with clients, ship fast, and see your code running in production at major financial institutions
Founder Collaboration: Work closely with founders who have successfully built and scaled fintech and analytics products before
Compensation: Competitive salary and significant equity on top of your compensation
Growth: A dedicated development budget—free to use for whatever gives you a level-up
Gear & Culture: New MacBook, merch, regular team events and dinners, a fast-paced, inclusive, and impact-oriented culture
