Co-design and build the overall technical architecture for an open-source AI and data infrastructure platform. Develop and integrate AI components while contributing to product strategy and the Estonian startup ecosystem.
Wanted a Technical Co-Founder (AI / Software / Platform Architecture) from Estonia for the development of an open-source-based AI and data infrastructure company
What it's about
Not just another tool – but a new system logic for data, processes and AI.
The market currently has a clear gap: - CO₂ logic, ESG and operational data are usually considered in isolation. - One is missing Integrated infrastructure for traceability and process intelligence
Core Idea
A modular, open-source system with three levels:
1. Core-System
Data and process logic
Structured documentation and linking systems
Digital twin of organizations
2. Integration layer
Integration of ERP systems
Adapter instead of system replacement
3. Application layer
ESG / CO₂ / Governance / Projects
Industry and organizational solutions
Tasks
Co-design and build the overall technical architecture (core system, integrations, application layer)
Develop and integrate AI components (LLMs, semantic search, analytics)
Design and implement a modular, container-based platform (Docker, API-first approach)
Connect existing systems (e.g. ERP, data sources) via adapter logic
Contribute to product strategy and technical roadmap
Select and establish a sustainable open-source technology stack
Actively support the development of a strong network within the Estonian startup ecosystem (tech community, partners, programs)
Collaborate with funding bodies, programs, and relevant stakeholders in Estonia
Requirements
Experience in software development (ideally Python / backend / APIs)
Knowledge of AI / machine learning / LLM integration
Experience with container technologies and system architecture
Strong understanding of data structures, data models, and distributed systems
Interest in open-source ecosystems and privacy-focused solutions
Ability to structure and implement technical concepts independently
Entrepreneurial mindset and interest in a co-founder role
Strong networking mindset – ideally with exposure to startup ecosystems (experience in Estonia is a plus)
Benefits
Co-founder equity with long-term perspective
Opportunity to build a proprietary product with a clear IP strategy
Work on foundational infrastructure (not just feature development)
High degree of freedom in technology, architecture, and product decisions
Access to structured funding programs (Estonia / EU)
Direct access to the Estonian startup ecosystem and opportunity to build a strong network
Opportunity to shape key partnerships and structures from an early stage
Focus on sustainable, privacy-centric, and future-proof systems
