At R-LABS Canada Limited Partnership ("R-LABS"), we build purpose driven companies to solve major problems in real estate and housing. We are launching our next innovative company, QSEE. To do so, we need an innovative Co-founder to partner with us to take this venture to the next stage.
What we needWe are seeking a visionary CEO and Co-Founder to validate and launch QSEE, a new venture on a mission to empower building owners, developers, architects, engineers, and contractors with intelligent tools and reliable data to drive the digital transformation of construction and facility management.
By bridging the gap between design, construction, and operations, QSEE delivers normalized, verifiable, and high-quality information that forms the foundation for Digital Twin adoption and smarter, more efficient asset management.
This is a rare opportunity to partner with a leading venture builder to launch a new company from the ground up, guiding it through validation, funding, and commercialization.
Today, many owners inherit incomplete or inconsistent documentation, losing an estimated 1-5% of total building costs due to poor data quality, a figure that grows with project complexity.
QSEE solves this by introducing a new standard for BIM data governance through intelligent, user‑friendly workflows that keep project data accurate, consistent, and transferable across every phase, reducing lifecycle costs, improving collaboration, and unlocking the full value of building information.
As CEO, you will be the driving force behind the company, responsible for shaping and executing its business strategy, securing investment, and assembling a high‑performing team. You will work in close collaboration with R-LABS, your venture‑building partner, two co‑founders, and an experienced network of investors, industry experts, and real‑estate professionals. During the venture validation phase, the CEO & Co-Founder will be engaged in an Entrepreneur‑in‑Residence (EIR) capacity and will not be an employee of R-LABS.
This role will be primarily based in Toronto, with regular collaboration at the R‑LABS downtown office.
This is a hybrid role.

Equity and compensation. As a Co‑Founder, you will receive equity ownership through founders’ shares, ensuring that your contributions are directly tied to the success of the company. Following incorporation, CEO compensation will be determined by the company and its board, in line with market norms.
Support and stability. While this is a startup environment, you will not be building alone. You will have the backing of R‑LABS, an established venture‑building team specializing in real estate innovation, and access to mentorship, funding, and strategic resources.
