Remote | Equity-only | Early-stage AI/Education Startup


Maxibook is an early-stage AI startup rethinking how scientific knowledge is delivered, organized, and personalized.


We are building an Adaptive Knowledge System powered by dynamic knowledge maps and LLM-driven adaptive content, with an MVP expected by Q1 2026.


Our initial focus is on universities, research institutions, and publicly funded initiatives, with future expansion into the corporate HR sector (onboarding, continuous training, skill-gap reduction).


We are entering the fundraising phase and looking for a co-founder who want to build something transformative from the ground up.


Tasks

As COO & Co-Founder, you will work closely with the CEO to execute the company’s funding strategy, structure the business plan, and develop strategic relationships with investors, institutions, and innovation ecosystems.


This role focuses on operational execution on the business side, ensuring that vision and product direction are translated into credible financial plans, funding readiness, and concrete growth opportunities.


Key Responsibilities



  • Drive the execution of the funding strategy in alignment with the CEO

  • Develop and maintain business plans, financial models, and projections

  • Prepare and manage investor and funding materials (pitch deck, data room, financial narratives)

  • Identify and follow funding opportunities (VC, startup builders, accelerators, public and institutional programs)

  • Build and maintain relationships with investors, universities, research centers, and institutions

  • Act as a key point of contact for external stakeholders on business and funding topics

  • Support operational structuring and prioritization during the early growth phase

  • Collaborate continuously with the CEO to align execution with long-term strategy

COO

  • Solid network or demonstrated ability to develop institutional and international relationships

  • Comfortable operating in early-stage environments with high autonomy and responsibility

  • Execution-oriented mindset with strong organizational skills

  • International experience is a plus


Benefits

  • Equity-only with vesting – no salary at this stage, but significant long-term upside

  • Full co-founder status in an international AI startup

  • Flexible remote-first setup (20h/week in early phase, milestone-based)

  • Direct access to universities, research networks, and public funding bodies

  • Opportunity to shape the future of AI-driven education
