Joinoptn
CEO – EdTech Startup
Location: Remote (US-based preferred)
Compensation: Equity-first, generous founding-level package
Industry: EdTech | University Recruitment | AI-Powered Student Engagement
Stage: Seed | Pre-Series A | Product Launched
Who We Are OptN is an AI-driven EdTech startup revolutionizing how universities connect with high school students—before they apply. Our platform, joinoptn.com, is live with a number of partner institutions and over 20,000 students, helping enrollment teams identify, engage, and convert prospective students with personalized outreach, predictive analytics, and mobile-first experiences. With a full product in market, and a powerful technical foundation, we are now seeking a visionary CEO to scale the business, help close a Series A, and lead OptN into its next phase of growth.
The Role We’re looking for a founder-type leader who thrives in zero-to-one environments and is passionate about transforming the future of education through technology. This is a rare opportunity to take the reins of a venture-scale business with an established technical platform and traction.
As CEO, you will:
Own and drive company strategy, fundraising, and vision execution
Play a key role in investor outreach and close our next round of financing (Series A)
Build out a strong go-to-market function (sales, marketing, partnerships)
Serve as the face of the company to institutions, press, and the broader EdTech community
Collaborate closely with the founding technical team and board
✅ You Might Be a Fit If You:
Have experience as a founder, co-founder, GM, or growth-stage operator in a tech or EdTech startup
Understand the higher education buyer journey, especially in admissions or enrollment
Have raised or helped raise venture capital and are eager to do it again
Are obsessed with product-market fit, unit economics, and customer love
Are comfortable with equity-forward compensation while building value
What We Offer:
Founding-level equity stake
A built product with real users and early institutional revenue
Complete technical leadership and engineering support
Opportunity to build your own team as we scale
Mission-driven work that meaningfully improves access to higher education
This role is for builders, not caretakers. If you want to be the driving force behind the next big EdTech company—and you’re ready to earn your stake by executing—let’s talk.
To apply, email info@joinoptn.com with your background and why you’re excited about OptN.
