Equity

About the role

Read this first: this is an equity-only advisory role, not a salaried job. There is no cash compensation. It's a few hours a month, structured as an advisory agreement with equity vesting over two years. We'd rather say that plainly up front than waste your time.

What we're building

Growth Fusion (BlueBerry Tech Inc.) is in Richmond, BC. We build practical AI for Canadian small and mid-sized businesses — companies doing $1M to $15M in revenue.

Our platform is called Ken.

Large enterprises spent the last decade building unified data platforms — one place where all their information lives, so software and AI can reason about the whole business. Small and mid-sized companies never got that. Their reality is QuickBooks over here, three spreadsheets over there, a warehouse system that talks to neither, and the most important knowledge living in one person's head.

Ken is that missing layer, built for the businesses the enterprise forgot. One place for a company's data and context — with AI agents on top that do real operational work, because they finally understand the whole business instead of one disconnected corner of it.

Distribution and wholesale is where we're starting. It's where the operational pain is most expensive and most measurable.

Why we need you

We have the technology covered. What we don't have on the team is someone who has actually run a distribution business.

Not just the warehouse — the whole thing. The person who knows that this is a business made or lost on a few points of margin. Who has watched a good customer drift to 75 days and had to decide whether to keep shipping. Who knows the supplier relationship matters as much as the customer one, that the real cost of a bad hire in a 20-person company is enormous, and that half of what holds the business together is a spreadsheet one person maintains and nobody else understands.

That's the judgement we want in the room. The fastest way to build something useless is to build it without it.

What you'd actually do

  • A monthly call — react honestly to what we're building and where it's going
  • Pressure-test product decisions against commercial and operational reality
  • Help us prioritise: which problems genuinely cost an owner money, and which are merely interesting to engineers
  • Tell us where we're wrong about how these businesses really work
  • Occasional introductions where they make sense — never an obligation

You would not be running client engagements or doing delivery work. You are advising us.

Experience we're looking for

  • You've run a distribution or wholesale business — owner, president, general manager, or COO. P&L responsibility, not one function.
  • 10+ years in the industry, with real commercial ownership. Food and beverage distribution especially welcome.
  • A small-to-mid-size company (roughly $2M–$20M), where the owner still knows every customer by name. Enterprise-scale experience is less relevant here.
  • You understand the full engine: buying and supplier terms, pricing and margin, customers and receivables, working capital, people — and yes, the warehouse as part of it
  • You've felt what it's like to run a real business on disconnected systems, and know which of those gaps actually cost money
  • Direct enough to tell a founder plainly when an idea is wrong

Formal consulting credentials aren't required. Having carried the business is what matters.

The details

  • Compensation: equity only, via an advisory agreement vesting over two years. No salary, no cash.
  • Time: a few hours a month. Designed to sit alongside a full-time role, not replace one.
  • Remote. Canada preferred, BC ideal — much of our early work is here.
  • This is not an employment relationship.

Growth Fusion is a Registered member of the Claude Partner Network, building toward Select. We're small and early, with paying customers already deployed.

About Growth Fusion Ai

Design Services
2-10 employees
Founded in 2023

Growth Fusion builds AI agents, operational automation, and AI training for Canadian small and mid-sized businesses ($1M–$15M revenue).

Most owners in our customer base are quietly losing six to seven figures a year on operations that humans shouldn't still be doing manually — stale receivables, manual quoting, missed renewals, customer churn that nobody catches in time, payroll leakage, scheduling chaos.

We work with you in three ways:

🔍 Operations X-Ray (free). A no-obligation audit that puts a real dollar number on 36+ hidden operational gaps in your business. You see exactly where the leaks are and what each one costs you annually.

⚙️ Ken AI Platform. Our AI platform deploys agents that connect to your existing tools — QuickBooks, phones, email, WhatsApp, job systems — and close the gaps. Collections, quoting, customer outreach, document processing, decision support. Without you having to manage them.

🎓 AI Training for SMB Owners. Live workshops that teach business owners and their teams how to actually use AI on real work — not theory. Walk in not knowing where to start. Walk out using AI on your business that same week.

Industries we serve: distribution, trades, clinics, restaurants, professional services.

Built in Canada. BDC LIFT–eligible financing available for qualifying customers.

If your team is drowning in tasks that should be automated, or you're an owner who knows you should be using AI but doesn't know where to start — that's exactly what we solve.
