About Antai Ventures
Antai Ventures is a Barcelona-based venture studio with presence across Southern Europe and LatAm (Mexico). Since 2012 we have co-founded +30 companies — including Glovo, Wallapop, PlatanoMelón, GoTrendier and Piper — backing the best co-founders to build global companies that disrupt multi-billion-dollar industries. Our ventures have raised more than $1.5B in funding, generated more than $3B in shareholder value, and currently employ more than 3,000 people.
The opportunity
We are building a B2B SaaS company in compliance: an AI copilot that helps AML teams at banks, payment institutions and fintechs run investigations and KYC/KYB reviews faster — producing auditable case files with a human always in the loop. Compliance teams in Europe are drowning in alerts and manual casework just as a new wave of EU regulation (AMLA, DORA) raises the bar; the budget is large, growing and non-discretionary.
As a founder, you'll be in the driving seat — launching and leading your own company. We invest in you and act as your co-founding partners, equipping you with strategic support so you can go from 0 to 1 faster.
As CEO & Co-Founder, you will be responsible for
Owning the company's vision, strategy and P&L from day zero.
Driving customer discovery with compliance leaders (MLROs, CCOs) to sharpen the wedge and reach product-market fit.
Building a repeatable go-to-market: landing lighthouse customers, converting pilots into recurring contracts, and owning ARR growth.
Recruiting and leading an exceptional founding team alongside Antai.
Navigating a regulated buyer: building trust with compliance, risk and audit stakeholders where credibility is the product.
Raising the company's next funding rounds.
Setting the culture, pace and operating cadence of the company.
What we're looking for
Must-haves
Proven 0→1 experience operating a digital business — as a founder, early employee or general manager with real ownership.
5+ years of professional experience with increasing operational leadership.
Demonstrated ability to attract and retain top talent.
Strong commercial judgment: you know how to find revenue and close complex B2B deals.
Experience in regulated industries — financial services, compliance, legal or insurance.
Excellent communication skills; fluent Spanish and English.
Nice-to-haves (bonus)
Experience building or selling B2B software to enterprise or mid-market buyers.
Direct exposure to AML/KYC, financial-crime or regtech.
Previous founder of a VC-backed company, or early at a high-growth startup.
What we offer
The opportunity to own a real part of what you build with a meaningful equity stake (investment is required).
Competitive compensation as the company gets funded.
Membership in Antai's ecosystem of serial entrepreneurs who have founded and scaled $1B+ companies.
Access to support from Antai's team.
The chance to build your next company in a fast-tracked way.
Office space in Barcelona and Madrid (and Mexico City).
