Backed by AMD, Airbus Ventures, 500 Global, Kickstart Ventures, HF0 Residency, Panache Ventures, and Oakseed Ventures, we’re a well-funded team of researchers and engineers on a mission to democratize AI through performance and accessibility.

About the Role

We’re looking for a founding member of the US/CA GTM team — someone both technical and entrepreneurial that thrives at the intersection of AI, communication, and execution.

This is not a traditional sales role. You’re expected to be fluent in AI and be able to hold your own in conversations with model creators, AI startups, enterprises, and developers exploring open-model deployment.

If you're a charismatic developer looking to expand into sales or a young entrepreneur that's developed technical skills we want to speak to you.

What You’ll Own Immediately
  • Build & qualify pipeline across enterprises and AI startups

  • Manage inbound requests through chat and email

  • Manage outreach sequences and automations (HubSpot, Clay, Reply.io, n8n)

  • Re-engage existing sign-ups and subscribers; identify high-value users

  • Track CRM, pipeline metrics, and weekly reporting

  • Attend events to generate pipeline and establish key relationships

What You Bring
  • Combined 1-2 years experience in Sales, Developer Relations, or Entrepreneurship

  • Comfortable engaging technical audiences (developers, founders, researchers)

  • AI power user

  • Excellent written and verbal communication in english — concise, credible, human

  • Entrepreneurial and self-driven — you operate independently and get things done

Why Featherless
  • Work directly with exec on high-impact partnerships and GTM strategy

  • Build your network across one of the fastest-growing open AI ecosystems

  • Be part of a small, high-performing team making open weight AI accessible to everyone

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
