Startup is a war against incumbents. You either disrupt the market and kill the old farts, or you die trying. Most people never understand what a startup actually is. That’s why they don’t build startups. They build side hobbies that will never scale.

Jurin AI is a Spartan culture, an extreme war culture forged from YC and PayPal Mafia DNA, influenced by secretive outliers like Rentech and early EPIC. Tiny, paranoid, and obsessed about our conviction. We treat intel like spy craft, every move like a coup de grâce. We’re 300 Spartans: small, but every single one strong enough to run circles around armies 100x our size.

Why small and elite? Because speed is startup's only weapon. Incumbents have money, lawyers, distribution. We have momentum. Not 10% YoY, but 1000% YoY. Speed exposes truth fast. Slow company drifts for years in denial. A startup knows in weeks if it’s alive or dead. Sub-300 teams have beaten 10k+ orgs in profit and margin again and again.

No lies about “WLB” while underpaying you and still grinding you 80 hours like exploitative companies. Instead, we offer work-life harmony & highest market comp.

We give you ownership. We give you the chance to put a dent in the universe, to impact, disrupt, and change the world.

Help 1B people, and the $B naturally follows.

The Jurin philosophy is treating our customers with product of quality so high our customers love us so much they throw money at us.

If low WLB yet high performers still stick around = you’re not running a company, you’re running a movement.

All said, we are not real "Factory 996". We are in practice "WLH 007". It means, you are always working, but you are also always living. If you want to take a long 3 hour lunch or go to the dentist appointment, just go. If you want to take 2 weeks off to go on a trip, just go. There's also no punishment to people who actually enjoy building.

Jurin AI's core HR theory is the “headcount walls”. Hierarchy is flat when <25, but first management structure must come in at 25 people. Next walls at 75, 300, 1,000, and so on.

Companies are becoming more efficient. IBM used to be 500k, then came Google with 100ks, then 10k, then 1k. The legendary outliers hover around ~300 people, beating companies 100x their size.

But why 300? Why not $B profit with <75 people?

In AI agent era, this might finally be possible. Telegram is the closest we've seen: tiny headcount, rockstars only, amplified by AI agents.

Instead of 10–100 marketers, one CMO commands 10k AI agents. Reality: big teams just execute the vision of 1–2 impact providers anyway. Every Jurin AI member is a future executive or founder, trained to scale their power with AI teammates. Independent, high-impact, and ambitious enough to ride the AI rocket ship.

If we’re serious about building a 75-person company, hiring must be ruthless. Every hire must be executive level capable within a few years. That also means stock can be far more generous. No need to split with 10k employees, just 75 teammates.

Jurin AI Founder is far more generous with equity than the norm. Most founders give <1% to early hires. Jurin AI first hires got 20% collectively. Most people get <0.1% after traction, Jurin AI gives 1%. Most people get <0.01% after PMF, Jurin AI gives 0.1%.

Why? If Jurin AI works out, $2B vs $1B doesn’t change the founder's life. But $1B split among 75 people changes theirs. Jurin AI founder takes 50% less than normal founders do and share it with “late co-founders”.

That’s the Jurin AI philosophy. Every teammate here could be a founder themselves. Instead, they choose 996, high-stress, high-risk Jurin AI.

Remember, there's no shortcut to making money. If you want to make $1M, you have to endure $1M worth of stress. You can do this by working low-stress jobs for 40 years, or you can compress that same $1M worth of stress into 4 months.

Working at Jurin AI is like training in Dragon Ball's Hyperbolic Time Chamber, your professional growth accelerates far more rapidly than it would at a large company.

Cool thing is, none of Jurin AI leadership does it because we need to. We have already earned our $10M–$100M in past ventures. We do it because we love the game.

Jurin AI hiring interviews are 10 minutes. We know if someone’s good in the first 5 minutes; the next 5 minutes are just being polite.

Recruiters are shocked. Candidates are shocked. Everyone and their grandma are shocked.

The only advantage a startup has in closing A-players is speed. Copying big-company hiring processes is a losing game.

Of course, Jurin AI doesn't randomly hire people. We follow strict rules with a 100% success rate at identifying A-players.

Rule #1: The interviewer are a domain expert.

If you have new grads interviewing new grads, you can’t fully trust their judgment. But if a programming god interviews a programmer, they know in seconds if someone’s good.

Countless times, we've seen resumes claiming “fluent in English,” yet one simple question proves otherwise. Same with non-Japanese claiming they know Japanese, one question and we know if they’re bluffing.

Big companies do endless interview rounds because they’re full of lazy people cruising around, clueless about what they’re doing. They try to reduce false positives—but it doesn’t work. B-players hire C-players, C-players hire D-players, and downhill it goes.

Rule #2: Test the technicals.

→ For software engineers, we require you solving Leetcode problems.

Everyone complains about Leetcode, but it’s damn effective. Hate it all you want, but if you can’t solve them, you’re not good enough. “I can vibe-code with AI”? Sure, Dunning-Kruger. You’ll destroy orgs, stay away from us.

→ Sales? You will have to draft outbound emails, respond to inbound leads, and do a live demo.

→ Marketing? Write ad copy on the spot.

→ Designers? Design something right away.

We have strong interviewers who are experts in the domain, we spot bullshitters immediately.
