Our goal is to attract world-class talent and align people where their impact is greatest. When you apply to Martell Group, you'll automatically be considered for all open roles across our companies, not just the one you applied for.

You'll work side-by-side with a commercially proven co-founder under Martell Group' battle-tested venture studio model, owning everything from architecture to iteration velocity. This role is perfect for a pragmatic, execution-led builder ready to ship with speed, autonomy, and clarity, without the fundraising distraction.

Contribute directly as a solo builder while preparing for scale
