At Catapult, we’re building personalized AI models that understand the complete context of your work across email, calendar, Slack, Notion, Google Docs, and more.
We’re pushing the frontier of what’s possible in AI with personalisation, memory, and deep context – to help you work better than you ever thought possible.
The Founder’s Associate will work directly with Catapult’s co-founders to help drive the company’s strategic initiatives, operations, and growth. This is an incredibly versatile role where you’ll be exposed to all aspects of building an AI startup—from product development and technical strategy to business operations and fundraising.
You’ll be the ultimate problem solver, helping the founders prioritise their time and energy while independently tackling high-impact projects. In this role, you’ll have unparalleled access to learn directly from experienced founders while making meaningful contributions to shape Catapult’s future.
