Founder's Associate

What you will do** • Take on a broad range of operational, financial and administrative tasks, learning the company bottom up while progressively taking on more responsibility and leadership • Work with me and the COO to build the company AI-first. Let’s strive towards automating as much as possible, so that the leverage compounds for you and for the company • Prepare the analysis behind pricing, market sizing, and go-to-market decisions. Build and own the financial model, the board pack, and the investor update • Run parts of the commercial pipeline end to end: account research, outreach, follow-up, and CRM discipline • Support the preparation of the next funding round • Take on the work you see is needed without being asked, and grow your role in the direction where you create the most value ### **Must have** • 2+ years at a top-tier strategy consultancy, investment bank, private equity firm, or a comparable analytical function • Experience at a startup in a leading role where you drove outcomes rather than observed them • Strong conceptual and analytical ability. You have built a model that a real decision was made on • Self-motivation and high energy: you set your own agenda and act without supervision • Strong practical use of AI to automate your own work, with something concrete you can show ### **Nice to have** • Founding experience of your own, however small the outcome • Enough SQL, Python, or scripting to automate a process end to end • Interest in heavy industry, hardware, or energy • Experience with fundraising processes or investor reporting ### What you get Options from the company’s option pool, and a competitive salary on top. For the right person, this is a real opportunity to earn a significant amount, way above the norm. As I will ask full ownership of you, I will give full transparency even before we sign, to discuss traction, cap table, pipeline, etc. As well as the steepest learning curve I can offer. ## **Education** MSc in Business, Economics, Engineering, or equivalent, with strong academic results. Education is less important than a documented track record of analytical work at a high standard. ### **Experience level** 6+ years combining top-tier analytical work with startup exposure. I am looking for someone early in their career but already demonstrably ahead of their peers, and who will grow into a senior position as the company scales. /Jonatan Carlsson, Founder and CEO Avdelning Operations Locations Stockholm Remote status Hybrid Safety Bolt develops wireless retrofit sensors that monitor bolted joints in critical infrastructure. Using magnetostrictive sensing, each sensor converts mechanical stress in a standard steel bolt into a measurable signal, giving asset owners continuous data on clamping force without modifying the joint or replacing any hardware. Measurements are transmitted wirelessly to a cloud platform, where trend analysis and alerts identify developing risk long before a scheduled inspection would. The company focuses on wind energy, bridges and civil infrastructure, rail, tunnels and mining, and heavy process industry. The technology is patented in the US, Europe and Asia and has been independently validated by several large industrial partners. Safety Bolt was selected as one of the top 33 tech companies in Sweden 2025, and for the NATO DIANA program 2025/26. Safety Bolt AB was founded in 2023 and is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden.
