Modern Design Platform (MDP) is a discovery-to-delivery infrastructure company built to modernize how hospitality and commercial Lifestyle FF&E is sourced, specified, procured, and delivered.

Across hotels, mixed-use developments, and large-scale renovations, FF&E remains fragmented and risky. Designers contend with incomplete product data and limited customization clarity. Owners and operators face rising costs, long lead times, and execution uncertainty. Manufacturers struggle to access qualified projects efficiently and predict demand. These challenges slow projects, limit design ambition, and create avoidable risk across the value chain.

MDP addresses this by operating as an embedded infrastructure layer that connects hospitality owners, design leaders, purchasing agents, and European manufacturers through a single, structured discovery-to-delivery workflow. The platform supports curated product discovery, configurable specifications, accurate pricing, coordinated procurement, and delivery certainty—transforming complex, manual processes into predictable execution.

For hospitality owners and investors, MDP enables asset-level capital recovery through cost-of-goods FF&E, reduces downside risk through improved project execution, and creates multiple paths to value including operating savings, portfolio leverage, and long-term equity upside. For designers, MDP replaces fragmented sourcing with a single environment to discover, specify, customize, price, and deliver Lifestyle FF&E—saving time, reducing fee pressure, and improving outcomes. For manufacturers, MDP provides structured access to hospitality projects, standardized data, and a complementary distribution layer alongside consolidation strategies.

Built by operators with decades of experience in luxury design, hospitality execution, and technology, MDP is creating the operating system for modern hospitality FF&E—turning complexity into clarity, and ambition into results.

**Seeking a Technical Co-Founder to Build the Operating Layer for Modern Design Platform **

Modern Design Platform is looking for a **technical co-founder ** to help us build the platform behind what we believe can become critical infrastructure for the design and hospitality industry.

We are not building another marketplace.

We are not building lightweight e-commerce.

We are not building generic project software.

We are building a platform that helps move complex design and hospitality projects from **discovery to delivery ** with more structure, alignment, and execution across specification, manufacturing, and project outcomes.

We have strong vision, clear positioning, and a growing understanding of what the product needs to be.

Now we need the right person to help architect and lead the technical side of that build.

The platform direction includes:

- Shopify as the commercial and data foundation

- A custom embedded application layer

- Structured product and specification data

- B2B workflows

- Approval, QA, exception handling, and execution control

- A long-term opportunity to become real operating infrastructure in a fragmented industry

This is not a junior role.

This is not a freelancer management role.

This is not a “help us code a few features” role.

We are looking for someone who can think like a builder and an owner — someone who can help design the system, make smart architectural decisions, and lead technical and product execution over time.

The right person likely has experience in some combination of:

- Shopify architecture, apps, APIs, and data models

- Product and systems design

- B2B commerce

- Workflow software or vertical SaaS

- Building internal tools or operational platforms

- Translating messy real-world processes into scalable software

Just as important, this person should want to help shape a company, not just ship tickets.

Because of the importance of the role, we believe this may need to include **meaningful equity participation **, not just cash compensation. We are open to structuring this the right way for someone who is capable of helping us build this over the long term.

This may be a fit for:

- a senior engineer who wants real ownership

- a product-minded technical builder ready for a founder-level role

- someone who has built serious infrastructure or workflow systems and wants to apply that skill in a large, underbuilt category

If this sounds like you, or someone you know, please message me directly.
