驻地创业者
Entrepreneur In Residence
Banyan Software 是为服务于特定行业的软件企业、其员工和客户提供的最佳长期发展平台。凭借“收购-增长-长期持有”的方法和永久性资本基础，Banyan 全球收购并培育公司，尊重创始人遗产，并通过共享的 AI 专业知识和运营纪律帮助投资组合公司实现现代化。自 2016 年成立以来，Banyan 在北美和南美、欧洲及亚太地区运营超过 120 家投资组合公司，并连续六年登上 Inc. 5000 榜单。Banyan Software 基金会由价值 1 亿美元的 Banyan 股票资助，利用技术打造更绿色、更公平的世界。
### **机会介绍**
我们正在启动一项新的驻地创业者（EIR）计划，从我们的投资组合中孵化 AI 原生公司。在我们 100 多家运营公司中，我们拥有深厚的行业专长、忠诚的客户以及数十年来建立的运营基础设施，其中很多是在特定市场中，传统软件尚未重新思考 AI 可以实现的潜力。
我们不希望现有团队在日常工作中同时开发新事物，而是招募一位创始人从零开始进行开发。作为 EIR，你将建立一家全新的 AI 驱动公司，利用已有的 Banyan 企业的行业知识、知识产权和客户关系，同时以初创公司的速度、专注度和责任感独立运作。
这是一个创始人角色，而不是企业创新角色。你将对结果负全责。
### **你将负责**
- 与 Banyan 和一家现有运营公司合作，识别并验证一个高信心的 AI 原生产品机会，该机会与他们的核心业务相关。
- 从零开始建立一家新公司：产品、团队、市场推广和文化，从第一天起就以 AI 为核心。
- 从零开始推动产品走向有意义的持续收入，利用合作伙伴企业的行业专长、源代码、数据和客户关系作为起点。
- 以精益的方式构建。你热衷于打造可销售的产品，而不仅仅是演示，无需管理大团队。
- 对项目的整体产品、增长和财务表现承担全部责任。
- 与关联运营公司的领导层以及 Banyan 的核心团队紧密合作，但不会继承现有业务的遗留限制。
### **你是什么样的人**
这不是一个传统的高管职位

Banyan Software is the best permanent home for software businesses that serve specialized industries, their employees, and their customers. With a buy-grow-and-hold-for-life approach and a permanent capital base, Banyan acquires and grows companies worldwide, honoring founder legacies and helping portfolio companies modernize through shared AI expertise and operational discipline. Founded in 2016, Banyan operates more than 120 portfolio companies across North and South America, Europe, and APAC, and has appeared on the Inc. 5000 list for six consecutive years. The Banyan Software Foundation, endowed with $100 million in Banyan stock, leverages technology to build a greener and more equitable world.
### **The Opportunity**
We are launching a new Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) program to build AI-native companies from within our portfolio. Across our 100+ operating companies, we hold deep domain expertise, loyal customers, and operating infrastructure built up over decades, much of it in specialized markets where the incumbent software hasn't been rethought for what AI can now do.
Rather than ask an existing team to build the next thing alongside their day job, we're recruiting a Founder to do it from a blank slate. As an EIR, you'll stand up a new, AI-first company that leverages the domain knowledge, IP, and customer relationships of an established Banyan business, while operating independently with the speed, focus, and accountability of a startup.
This is a Founder role, not a corporate innovation role. You will own the outcome.
### **What You'll Do**
- Partner with Banyan and an existing operating company to identify and validate a high-conviction, AI-native product opportunity adjacent to their core business.
- Stand up a new company from the ground up: product, team, go-to-market, and culture, built AI-first from day one.
- Take the product from $0 toward meaningful recurring revenue, using the domain expertise, source code, data, and customer relationships of the partner business as a running start.
- Build it lean. You are excited about building a sellable product, not just a demo, without managing a big team.
- Operate with full accountability for the venture's product, growth, and financial performance.
- Work in close partnership with the leadership of the affiliated operating company and with Banyan's central team, without inheriting the legacy constraints of the existing business.
### **Who You Are**
This isn't a traditional executive hire. We're looking for a specific kind of operator: someone wired to **build**, not manage.
- **Zero-to-one experience:** you've taken a product from $0 to meaningful initial revenue (roughly $1M ARR), not scaled an already-proven product.
- **Builder mentality:** you are a hands-on engineer who loves creative problem solving and product strategy.
- **AI-native thinker:** you build AI-first products and AI-first support and delivery models from day one, not AI bolted onto an existing workflow.
- **Founder DNA:** you operate with urgency, take full ownership of outcomes, and are comfortable with ambiguity and limited resources.
- **Product-led:** you have deep product instincts and have been hands-on in shaping what gets built, not purely a go-to-market operator.
- **Domain fit:** you understand, or can quickly absorb, the vertical you're entering.
- **Track record:** early-stage startup experience (seed to Series A).
### **What We Offer**
This role comes with real ownership. You'll receive a competitive cash package alongside meaningful equity in the new venture you build, with additional upside as the business grows. You'll also have the backing of an established operating company's domain expertise and infrastructure, along with Banyan's central resources, without the politics and legacy constraints of an existing organization.
Specific compensation, equity, and funding terms are discussed directly with candidates as part of the interview process and are tailored to the venture and the individual.
