Founding CEO : Lead the Next Breakthrough in Aviation / Travel Tech with UP.Labs

If you've built and exited a successful aviation / travel-related SaaS or data-driven company—and are eager to do it again—this is your moment to found something game-changing that includes structural advantages beyond the dreams of most startups.

We're looking for a CEO to build and scale an aviation software company from day one, in partnership with our corporate partner, a leading US airline.

This is a rare opportunity to lead a venture that starts with :

  • A real industry problem with immediate, measurable value
  • A committed enterprise customer base
  • Capital from tier-one VCs (with flexibility to bring your own backers)
  • Full founder equity and support from the UP.Labs platform

Why Build With UP.Labs

  • Enterprise traction from day one. You will be joining a startup team, with a product already in pilot / market, being built by an UP.Labs team of product, go to market, and engineering leaders. You’re solving a problem validated by our corporate partner and the broader ecosystem.
  • Accelerated path to exit. Our portfolio companies are structured to scale fast with capital efficiency—targeting liquidity in 3–4 years.
  • Founder-level equity. A competitive base salary and a meaningful ownership stake from day one.
  • Backed by the best. Work alongside institutional investors, UP.Partners, and top corporate LPs.
  • World-class infrastructure. Tap into product, engineering, legal, recruiting, and GTM support from the UP.Labs operating team.
  • What You’ll Build

    You’ll lead one of the following vertical AI startups (based on final match and interest), each of which is already in motion. There will be an ‘in-residence’ component where you will help shape the opportunity with the ‘problem-hunting’ team as you transition into the CEO role.

  • AI-driven personalization for airlines and hospitality to drive engagement, conversion and lifetime value
  • Airline network operations platform that predicts, recommends, and automates decisioning to minimize disruptions and delay-related costs
  • Intelligent aircraft leasing solutions to support lessors and lessees by automating maintenance reviews, minimizing lease return costs and giving confidence on new leases
  • Your Role

    You’ll serve as founding CEO—setting the direction, building the team, and owning outcomes. This is a hands-on role for someone who can go from zero to scale with urgency, clarity, and grit.

    Responsibilities :

  • Own and drive strategy, operations, and execution—P&L, GTM, and beyond
  • Recruit and lead a top-tier team across engineering, product, and sales
  • Translate complex aviation / travel problems into world-class software
  • Build deep relationships with customers, particularly inside the corporate partner ecosystem
  • Partner with UP.Labs product and venture teams to unlock value quickly and intentionally
  • Raise capital, drive growth, and lead the company to exit
  • You Might Be a Fit If You’ve :

  • Founded or scaled a B2B SaaS, AI or data platform, ideally with airline or overall mobility focus
  • Sold into or worked with complex enterprises
  • Built AI / ML-enabled platforms or have a sharp eye for building defensible data moats
  • Closed enterprise customers and maintained long-term commercial relationships
  • Led a company through Series A+ or to a successful exit
  • Built and inspired exceptional, diverse teams under pressure
  • Location : Major Metro Preferred
