Job details
Business overview
Luxar is a company that is launching multiple businesses centered on AI. The same team works to support client companies' AI utilization and product development, as well as to create and grow our own products.
Even in the management of the company itself, we share the work with AI agents. We try out everything from research, requirements definition, design, implementation, and document creation in our daily work, and pass on the methods we found useful to the next job. People are responsible for deciding what to make and what not to make, forming relationships with others, reading the constraints of the site, and having ultimate responsibility for the quality of the experience.
What this business does
Our business consists of two tiers: work that supports clients on-site, and work that creates and expands our own products. Rather than having different methods for each area, we use the work methods we have verified in-house as a common foundation.
We bring the knowledge gained at the client's site back to the product, and the procedures tested on the product back to client work. The structure is such that the procedures used in the field, including human resource development, lead to the next project.
Founding management members are not limited to only looking at one business or the other. While having your own strengths in management, technology, or business P/L, you will be responsible for the company structure that connects these two layers.
What you will do
The scope of your initial assignment will be determined through an interview based on your experience and desired involvement from the job descriptions below.
- Like a COO. Shares the burden of management and business operations with the representative and handles multiple projects, recruitment, and teams.
- As a CTO. Oversees product and project technology and leads the engineering organization.
- As a business manager. Responsible for the P/L of a specific business and decentralizes management for each business.
- Any or more of the above three. Make your areas of strength the pillars of your company.
- Design to increase the number of businesses while maintaining a small number of people and AI structure. Involved in the design of the AI management OS itself.
What success looks like
- Even without a representative, business decisions do not stop.
- My field has become an independent pillar within the company.
- Management decisions are directly dependent on internal mechanisms (types, templates, and routines).
Experience
Required
- Experience taking on independent decision making for a business or organization.
- Experience of being responsible for both numbers and people.
- To be amused by the uncertainty of the early days of founding a company.
Preferred
- Start-up or rapid growth experience.
- Experience incorporating AI into management and operations.
- Whether it's technology, design, or business, you have the depth to be able to explain it to others.
Who we are looking for
- Someone who can handle numbers and decision-making for the entire company, not just their own area.
- People who can create a position based on their strengths without having a fixed role.
- A person who can separate what is left to humans and what is given to AI, and create a system that involves a small number of people.
- People who can choose the criteria and procedures for remaining in the company over short-term convenience.
- A person who can organize the order of decisions without hiding undetermined matters during the founding period.
Experience and career path
You will have the experience of having your specialty in management, technology, and business responsibility as the pillar of the company. Roles are not fixed before joining the company, but are determined while discussing the scope of responsibilities, including directorship, in accordance with the state and strengths of the business.
Luxar is in the early stages of its founding, and rather than joining an already established organization, we are at the stage where we are creating the business process and company structure on the job. Successful decisions and procedures are not kept privately, but are preserved as skills and documents. Therefore, in addition to practical work in the area in which you are responsible, you will gain experience in creating a method to run a business with a small number of people and an AI agent.
Our primary engagement models are full-time employment at the company’s core and project-based contracting that brings specialist expertise. Depending on the role, co-founder, partner, or director arrangements may also be possible. Expanded responsibility is not an automatic promotion; we decide it together based on the work undertaken and the state of the business.
Ways to work with us
- Full-time employeeWorking full time to create the core of Luxar.
- DirectorResponsible for management decision-making and responsible for the company itself.
This is a frame that looks ahead to the future when client work supply capabilities (consultants and builders) are on track. Rather than fixing a role name in advance, we decide on a position based on experience and strengths while talking.

Why this role matters
- We do not limit the work of open positions to just one part of the process, but handle everything from management decisions to execution and review.
- The processes that can be passed on to agents, such as investigation, organization, generation, and implementation, are passed on to agents, and people spend their time asking questions, coming to an agreement with the other party, and determining the final quality.
- At a company in its early stages, we not only finish the task at hand, but also leave it as a procedure that can be used by the next person and the next project. Regular employees work at the core of the company, while outsourced employees bring their expertise to projects. The path to co-founding and business responsibility will be discussed individually depending on the job type and business status.
