About the Role

The Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) position at Mojay Global Holding Limited demands a skilled founder with robust technical expertise and sharp commercial insight. This role focuses on establishing venture-scale enterprises within Physical AI as opposed to managing well-established businesses.

• Prior experience as a founder, co-founder, or senior leader in a technology startup is essential.
• Proven background in robotics spanning industrial, service, autonomous, or mobile robotics domains.
• Advanced knowledge in computer vision covering perception systems, object detection, tracking, inspection, navigation, or other visual AI implementations.
• Hands-on application of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to tangible physical systems.
• Track record of transforming concepts into commercial products effectively.
• Expertise in customer discovery processes and validating product-market fit.
• Capability to recruit, guide, and inspire high-performing technical teams.
• Experience collaborating with cross-functional hardware and software engineering groups.
• Solid business judgment with an entrepreneurial, venture building mindset.

Preferred Experience

• Exposure to Physical AI technologies and autonomous system development.
• Knowledge of Edge AI, sensor fusion, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), robotics simulation, and digital twins.
• Experience with industrial automation, manufacturing technologies, warehouse automation, or drone and aerial robotics.
• Background in medical robotics and human-robot interaction.
• Experience in venture capital, venture studio environments, or deep-tech startups, including Seed or Series A fundraising rounds.

Personal Qualities

• An entrepreneurial mindset with a strong execution focus.
• Comfortable navigating uncertain environments and making evidence-based decisions.
• Resourceful with efficient use of capital.
• Strong systems thinker blending engineering, research, and commercial considerations.
• Committed to long-term ownership and value creation.

Compensation and Equity Structure

The EIR role emphasizes creating long-term shareholder value with compensation primarily consisting of equity ownership linked to successful ventures. While no fixed salary is offered, the company may provide a modest monthly stipend and cover approved business expenses during the initial incubation phase.

• For each approved and funded venture, the EIR may earn up to 20% founder equity, subject to standard four-year vesting with a one-year cliff and ongoing monthly vesting thereafter, contingent on active participation and subject to dilution from future fundraising.
• Equity allocation depends on opportunity quality, contributions, capital invested, venture stage, and involvement of other founders or executives.
• Additional equity awards can be granted for significant accomplishments such as validated customers, MVP delivery, initial commercial sales, strategic partnerships, external financing, and substantial enterprise value growth.
• Profit participation occurs through equity upon liquidity events like acquisitions, IPOs, or other approved exits.
• All equity is governed by agreements covering leaver provisions, intellectual property assignments, confidentiality, restrictive covenants, and company equity incentive policies to align the EIR’s rewards closely with shareholder value cultivation.
