The Opportunity
FutureSight is seeking a Co-Founder & CEO to lead Omnex, an AI-native operating system for multi-channel ecommerce sellers, currently in build at our studio. This is a co-founder partnership with meaningful founder equity, not a salaried executive role.
Today's e-commerce businesses run on fragmented software and manual coordination. Sellers operating across Amazon, Shopify, eBay, Walmart, and other channels constantly switch between dashboards, reconcile conflicting data, and make hundreds of operational decisions every day across pricing, inventory, advertising, fulfillment, and customer support.
The opportunity sits within a global ecommerce market exceeding $1 trillion in annual GMV, where millions of sellers increasingly operate across multiple channels but lack any unified operational intelligence layer.
Market Context
Omnex replaces this fragmented workflow with an autonomous, multi-agent AI workforce. Instead of giving sellers another dashboard, Omnex continuously understands the business, reasons across every sales channel, and proactively executes operational decisions - from optimizing pricing and inventory to managing advertising, forecasting demand, and coordinating customer support. Every AI agent shares the same business context, learns from outcomes, and works together to optimize the business as a whole.
About FutureSight
FutureSight is a leading venture builder that co-creates world-class software companies with values-driven entrepreneurs from inception to exit. We are a team of founders, operators and designers with experience successfully bringing software to market at scale.
You’ll co-create with a proven studio team, led by John Carbrey (4x entrepreneur, $100M ARR), Krista LaRiviere (3x exited, E&Y Top Women Entrepreneur), Alan Smith (Strategyzer co-founder, $120M in products built), Prathna Ramesh (former MD of Maple Leaf Angels, $275M in follow-on capital), and Johnny Tong (0-to-1 builder, acquired by SAP and Stripe) bring a rare combination of operator exits, institutional investing, and AI product depth.
The Partnership
As Co-Founder & CEO, you will set the venture's direction and lead its execution.
Please submit your resume, LinkedIn profile, and a brief note on why this venture aligns with your goals as a founder. We will move quickly for the right candidate.
FutureSight is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and experiences.
