A best-effort live-web scan on 2026-10-02 surfaced 30 unique, currently advertised founding or first sales roles posted or announced 2026-09-29 through 2026-10-02 (or a job board explicitly saying today to 3 days). The rows come from 23 source pages across 12 hostnames — the most-used single page backs 4 roles (13.3%), so no page dominates. “All” means every qualifying role this broad scan surfaced, not every unindexed or login-only opening on the internet. Coverage is global; 16 of 30 disclose compensation.
Disclosed pay — 11 roles with a numeric range
Horizontal bars span each role's disclosed low to high (base to OTE where stated). Blue = strongest company-level first/founding signal. Tremendous is in euros. Hover a bar for the full package; the other 19 roles disclose no numeric range — see the table.
