Founders Factory is unlike anywhere else. Our incubator is a fast-track for talented people to become Founders. We create entirely new products from scratch, leverage data, distribution and IP from our partners, then build founding teams that can spin out into a fully-fledged business.
We’re looking for talented engineers to join us as we are building a world class R&D center in Romania with the ambition to create a next-generation tech platform for early-stage start-ups. This platform will be pivotal in starting and growing 200 businesses over the next 5 years.
We provide all the excitement and freedom of an early-stage startup but with the stability and resources of a large organization.
