A bit about us:
A growing, early-stage company with proprietary technology is seeking a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to lead and scale the business. The company has developed a patented wearable heating and cooling solution with applications across healthcare, military, outdoor recreation, and consumer markets.
This product is designed to improve comfort and performance in environments where temperature control is critical. Early use cases include medical professionals, field personnel, and consumers in cold-weather or variable-temperature settings.
This is an opportunity to step into a leadership role with significant upside. The company is in its early stages, and the CEO will play a key role in shaping strategy, driving growth, and bringing the product to market. Equity or profit-sharing structure is expected to heavily favor the CEO upon successful execution.
Why join us?
- Own the outcome: Step into a true leadership role where your decisions directly shape the company’s trajectory
- High upside potential: Compensation structure is designed to heavily reward success through equity or profit participation
- Innovative, patented product: Lead commercialization of a unique solution with real-world applications across multiple industries
- First-mover advantage: Opportunity to bring a new category product to market with strong differentiation
- Flexible structure: Part-time, remote role that can evolve as the company scales
- Entrepreneurial environment: Ideal for someone who wants to build something meaningful and make a lasting impact
