CEO, Seidr Technologies

Seidr builds software that turns months of manual site selection for energy-intensive industrial projects into hours of automated analysis. This is solving a significant bottleneck in a rapidly growing market. We have a signed, paying pilot customer and a growing pipeline across Power-to-X and data center developers in the Nordics and Germany. Read more about what we do on our company profile.

The role

We're looking for a CEO to lead Seidr forward and be the face of the company to investors, customers and partners. You'll own recruiting and team-building together with our venture studio REspire and our CTO Aman, and take on the full range of responsibilities that come with leading an early-stage startup.

Aman leads product and engineering, and we'll be growing the tech team further over time. Your main day-to-day focus will be commercial: direct, outbound sales to developers of energy-intensive projects, alongside shaping the business model and pricing as we move from pilot to scale.

What we're looking for

Above all, someone who wants to build a startup and understands what that actually takes: grit, resourcefulness, and the ability to move fast with limited resources. Previous startup experience is a strong signal of this, but not the only way to show it.

You should have solid experience in business development and B2B sales. Experience from data center development, or development of other power-intensive industry (Power-to-X, renewables, heavy industry), is a strong plus.

Location & setup

We'd prefer someone based in Norway who can work from our office in Asker, but we're open to strong candidates based elsewhere. We're also open to starting part-time and ramping up as the company grows.

A note on stage and risk

This is a pre-seed startup, not a conventional job. Until we close funding, which you'll be directly involved in raising, there is no fixed salary. We're open to pragmatic solutions along the way, such as a part-time period, but you should go into this with your eyes open and a genuine appetite for that kind of risk.

Seidr

See company profile

Seidr builds software that turns months of manual site selection and early-phase engineering work into hours of automated analysis, for developers of energy-intensive industrial projects: Power-to-X, data centers, and other power-hungry industries across Europe. Today, finding and qualifying a site for one of these projects takes 6-18 months and can cost millions, because the work is done manually, spreadsheet by spreadsheet, consultant by consultant, one candidate site at a time. Critical blockers, such as insufficient grid capacity or zoning conflicts, often surface only after months of work, when changing course is expensive. Seidr automates this. Our platform screens candidate sites in parallel against dozens of criteria, including grid capacity, current and future zoning, and environmental risk, and returns a ranked, decision-ready shortlist in hours instead of months. The underlying logic is built on real industrial project experience, not generic AI. We already have a signed, paying pilot customer and a growing pipeline of Power-to-X and data center developers across the Nordics and Germany. Backed by a venture studio, we are now looking for a CEO to take Seidr from pilot to scale, and to grow the platform from site selection into the full early-phase planning stack for energy-intensive projects.
