Wickdale Capital, a traditional search fund, is looking for a hands-on technical builder to design internal tools that automate research, extract insights from messy data, and scale outreach using AI. You’ll work directly with the founder to deploy workflows using Python, GPT APIs, Zapier, Replit, Cursor, and more. Ideal candidates are self-taught hackers, CS grads, or career switchers already building with LLMs and automation tools. This is a project-based, remote role with flexible hours, real impact, and direct exposure to how acquisition decisions get made. To apply, email redacted with a brief note on your interest and qualifications, your resume, LinkedIn, and any links to relevant projects.
