About us -


Why we exist?
We exist to bring the magic of Generative AI to millions of people.


Our thesis
Generative AI is a new wave of technological disruption that will ripple through countless industries. We started Genova to be at the forefront of the revolution. Genova, meaning "New Wave" is a venture studio aimed at building delightful products around Generative AI.


Our story


After founding Smallpdf (a top 100 website globally) and Taxfix (a FinTech unicorn), Mathis (Linkedin profile) founded Genova, together with a handful of other product, growth and AI experts.

Our aim is to combine our expertise and experience to build products that improve human experiences for millions of people.


Why now?
Society is at an inflection point. Where the capabilities of generative AI are only just being discovered. The next decade we expect the revolution to take place. Generative AI will become mainstream and be at the core of all product experiences.


How does operate?
Genova is a fundamentally new approach to how products are built.

Genova is a studio with 4 product teams - each one building simple tools and software to enable millions of people to use the magic of Generative AI.


The 4 product teams are agile, release every day and build small, scalable products that generate loads of value for a lot of people.

If their product becomes profitable, the team will receive a percentage of those profits as bonuses.


The product pods are supported by the studio layer, which includes supporting functions, a kick-ass growth and marketing team as well as some of the top AI researchers in Europe.


Genova aims to always stay agile and fast - we aim to hire smart and experienced people, capping our headcount at 40 people in total.

If a product requires more people, it will become a spin-off with its own team.


Who are we looking for?
We are looking for a top programmer who has become a passionate leader. A leader obsessed with the delivery of results, hiring the best of the best and pushing them to excellence.

We are looking for someone, who can make super pragmatic decisions with their teams to deliver stuff fast but also have productive discussions on the whiteboard with the smartest technical minds in AI that are more long-term.


The CTO at Genova will review and write code and ensure great and smooth processes, architecture decisions and scoping of features.

She or he will be in charge of hiring 10x engineers and create a culture around speedy delivery and great results.


Since the founder will be in charge of the strategic and tactical product decisions, there will be no product management executive and the CTO will also be in charge of product management processes.


What you will do

  • Hiring and manage tech leads/research leads (up to 30 people head count) the idea is though that we won't need much formal managing in the small teams
  • Conception and implementation of a great culture of the product organisation that motivates the best to join and do their very best work
  • Release and technical product management of all teams
  • Strategic decisions on infrastructure, devops and architecture of all teams
  • Code review and active support of the teams when required

Your profile

  • You have 5 years+ of handson software development (coding) including ML products
  • You have earlystage startup experience as a Tech Lead or Co-Founder
  • You have experience in shipping consumer products (B2C) including mobile apps and experience in scaling products and architecture for millions of users
  • You have experience in hiring top technical talent
  • You have experience in being involvement in designing product release cycles, product work flows, and implementation of lean and agile methodologies
  • You have experience managing successful R&D / ML projects
  • You have a strong understanding of business / product / marketing and how they relate to technology
  • You have computer science degree or equivalent qualification from a top university

Why

  • We build faster than anyone else. We will fail and learn faster than anyone else.
  • We will fundamentally question everything and disrupt the status quo.
  • We are wellfunded but don't take VC funding. We only build for us and our customers.
  • We stay a startup forever. We will never fall for the trap of building a big corporation with politics, endless meetings and slow operations.
  • We have amazing fun as a team working with only top talent.
  • We leave our ego at the door and focus on the joy of building things together.
