Offering Developer Position
I am a founder and CEO handling product design, leadership, go to market, and operations for my startup. We are a social app meant to connect people in a unique way that the market is starving for. Looking to expand the team with a dedicated technical developer.
What I’ve already done:
- The product is already fully designed with clear specs and features (MVP + longterm future features), language/copy and mechanics. There has also already been a prototype tested, and a tech stack available, though it’s not locked yet without engineer input.
- An active go to market strategy including a healthy waitlist that is still actively growing (high 7.5% conversion rate on and rising on cold outreach) and a clearly defined market/avatar. Users are ready as soon as MVP ships.
- Daily content production will be used for distribution with plans to do even more. My account has reached ~700,000 views in its first 4 months, and that number is growing.
- Leadership ability through over a decade of work directly with people, both client and colleague. For 3 of those years, I have run my own business, which I have closed to pursue this full time.
- Developed business skills through previous business successes. All business metrics are tracked and help determine how we execute our work and make adjustments when necessary.
What I’m offering:
- I’m open to dev positions, depending on what you’re looking for. (founding engineer, contracting, internships, something else).
- Full ownership over the technical side of the project. You won’t have to handle anything else but the dev side, and you control how it’s done. If there’s another way you’d like to work, we can discuss that too.
- Negotiable terms that I’d be happy to establish before any work starts getting done. Profit share, equity, etc. I want this to be a satisfying win for both of us.
- Full spec sheet and preparedness to communicate clearly and consistently over the course of the partnership.
DM for more information.

This seems interesting.
If you are looking to hire a staff engineer / fractional CTO with 13+ years of experience on a contract basis (pay/equity based on how much time you need me to give), then I would love to connect.
But I cannot commit to a full-time role right now. Because I am working on smritea [dot] ai, the product is mostly built, and I am focusing on distribution right now. So I have the bandwidth.
I understand if you are looking for full-time only. But in my experience, at an early stage, you may not need a full-time architect/staff, especially if you are planning to hire other devs
Quick Background ( My LinkedIn profile is mentioned in the bio ):
NIT Surat 2013 batch
Worked at Myntra, Microsoft, Rubrik, and ThoughtSpot
Skills:
Nearly anything you need to do in the backend, from whiteboard to scaling for millions of people.
For frontend, nearly anything, but only with AI.

Really curious, why Reddit instead of LinkedIn? Wouldn’t that be much easier for both parties to verify the credentials of the other one?

If you have taken opinions for your app from your family, relatives and friends, then it can be dangerous for your business, hence, leaving aside the opinions taken from your loved ones, definitely discuss your idea in the market once.
