Position Overview

As the founding Chief Executive Officer (CEO), you will lead the overall strategy, direction, and operational execution of the company. This role requires a dynamic leader with an entrepreneurial spirit, ready to contribute $100,000 in capital and drive the startup to market leadership while operating without a salary for the first 12 months.

    • Oversee real estate transactions, including a sale-leaseback for the flagship property, and secure additional funding through creative financial solutions.
    • Collaborate with government partners and institutional investors to align the company's growth with long-term strategic goals.
  2. Capital Raising & Financial Strategy
    • Lead the company's capital raising efforts, including securing equity investment from strategic and institutional partners.
    • Manage relationships with government partners to access funding programs and grants designed to support innovative technology startups.
    • Ensure the efficient use of the CEO's $100,000 capital contribution to drive early-stage operations, technology development, and market penetration.
  3. Operational Oversight
    • Oversee all aspects of business operations, including data center development, customer acquisition, technology infrastructure, and compliance with industry standards.
    • Ensure the company operates with a focus on sustainability, efficiency, and security, meeting or exceeding industry best practices.
    • Build a high-performing team, capable of driving the company's aggressive growth objectives.
  4. Investor Relations & Business Development
    • Build strong relationships with potential investors, government agencies, and key stakeholders to secure funding and strategic partnerships.
    • Drive the business development strategy, identifying key market opportunities and leading the company into new regions.
    • Represent the company at industry events, conferences, and public forums to enhance brand visibility and thought leadership.
Qualifications
  • Proven track record as a CEO or senior executive in a technology, infrastructure, or startup environment.
  • Experience with capital raising, strategic partnerships, and managing relationships with institutional investors and government agencies.
  • Expertise in managing real estate financing transactions such as sale-leasebacks and leveraging innovative financial structures.
  • Strong leadership skills, with the ability to execute on long-term business strategies while managing day-to-day operations.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to contribute $100,000 in capital and operate without a base salary for the first 12 months.
Preferred
  • Experience in the data center, cloud computing, or digital infrastructure sectors.
  • Familiarity with Canadian government programs such as the Export Development Canada (EDC) and other financial instruments.
  • Previous experience working in a high-growth startup environment.
Compensation
  • The role requires a capital contribution of $100,000. Compensation will be provided in the form of equity in the company, with the addition of a base salary after 12 months. There is substantial potential for growth as the business scales.
