Founding Associate - Hexa Sprint Program
Hexa Sprint is building a new kind of accelerator. No batches. No generic support. A partner-led, ultra hands-on model, designed to give startups 10x more chances to succeed. Each partner runs a vertical and works deeply with a small number of companies.
Our ambition: become the largest accelerator in Europe, without ever diluting quality. To get there, we need a new kind of role.
The Role
We are looking for a founding Hexa Sprint Associate .
t's a hybrid role at the intersection of Product, AI and Venture , designed to give Hexa Sprint the leverage it needs to scale.
You will work directly with the partners and have 3 core missions.
Mission 1: Build the Sprint OS (Agentic Layer)
You'll design and build the internal infrastructure and the AI agents that power the entire accelerator:
- Partner OS (Vertical Engine) : help any partner structure and launch a new vertical, run fundraising (pipeline, follow-ups, materials), build visibility, and manage their 12 startups.
- Startup OS (6-month orchestration engine) : onboard every startup, structure their 6-month journey, track progress, suggest next best actions, automate reporting.
- Agent Layer : build internal agents that reduce admin to near-zero, assist partners in real time, support founders with targeted insights, and automate repetitive workflows.
You'll experiment with OpenAI, Anthropic, APIs, no-code tools and custom workflows.
Mission 2: Support the Partners
You are the partners' right hand on everything that isn't "founder time".
- Operations — running the machine day-to-day.
- Fundraising — supporting partners on LP pipeline, materials, follow-ups.
- Startup support — plugging into portfolio companies when needed (fundraising prep, GTM, hiring, ops).
Mission 3: Develop the Sprint Program
Make Hexa Sprint the most visible and magnetic accelerator in Europe.
- Build and animate the European Sprint community (founders, partners, alumni, experts).
- Own program visibility: content, events, narrative, PR moments.
- Turn every vertical launch into a signal for the ecosystem.
- Attract the best European founders to Sprint.
Profile
We're looking for a very specific type of person, and we care more about what you've built than your CV.
Experience
- 3–5 years of experience.
- Either: Engineer with a finance / VC background , or Business profile with a strong product / tech background .
- Deeply comfortable with AI: you already use it daily, build with it, and have strong intuitions about agents and automation.
Mindset
- Builder — you like building systems more than making slides. You've already automated things for yourself.
- Technically curious — comfortable with APIs, agents, LLMs, no-code. You don't need to be a senior engineer, but you can build.
- Business sense — you understand startups, fundraising, ambition. You can translate messy reality into structured systems.
- Structured thinker — you simplify complexity and design frameworks that scale.
- Leverage-obsessed — you hate inefficiency. You do more with less.
Why This Role Is Unique
- You won't join a team → you'll define a function .
- You'll work directly with the partners.
- You'll shape how dozens of startups are built across Europe every year.
- You'll build the agentic backbone of the largest accelerator in Europe.
This is a founding role inside the machine .
