Founding Business and Operations Lead

Every company Coalition incubates starts with a technical core. It needs a second leader who turns that into a business: customers, capital, contracts, and the operating machine that makes it run.

One track, two entry points. Join at formation and you are a co-founder with founder equity. Join once the company is formed and funded and you are the COO with a meaningful founding-team grant.
