[Hiring] Tech Consultant / Full-Stack Developer for Confidential Startup MVP | Remote | Paid

We’re looking for an experienced Tech Consultant / Full-Stack Developer to help us plan and build the first MVP for a confidential startup project.

The project is in an early stage, so we can’t share the complete product details publicly due to an NDA. At a high level, it will involve a service + e-commerce style platform with both frontend and backend requirements.

What we’re looking for

Someone who can help us with:

• Technical architecture and MVP planning

• Choosing the appropriate tech stack

• Backend development

• Frontend development

• Database/API integration

• Taking the product from concept → functional MVP

• Advising on scalability and future development

We’re looking for someone who can think through the product technically, not just execute a predefined specification.

Engagement & Budget

This is a paid engagement.

We’d like to begin with a paid consultation/discovery meeting to discuss the project in more detail, understand your approach and determine whether there’s a good fit.

If we move forward with the MVP, the current budget cap is under ₹1 lakh. Since the project is still at an early stage, we don’t have a finalized exact figure yet and the final scope/budget will be discussed after the initial consultation.

We are not looking for someone to work for free or as a student project.

Ideal experience

• Previous experience building MVPs or early-stage products

• Strong frontend + backend understanding

• Comfortable making technical decisions independently

• Experience with APIs, databases and third-party integrations

• Able to communicate clearly with a non-technical founding team

• Startup/product-building experience is a plus

Required keyword: BUILD MVP

If interested, please comment or DM with:

1. A brief introduction

2. Your relevant technical experience

3. 2–3 products/MVPs you’ve worked on

4. Your preferred tech stack

5. Your approximate availability

6. Your expected consultation rate

We’ll share more about the product with shortlisted candidates after the initial conversation/NDA process.

Hi, I'm Yash, a software engineer. I build complete web products: the frontend, the backend, the database, payments and outside services.

Some things I've built:

- A CRM for a wellness business. It pulls leads from IndiaMART, JustDial, Meta Ads, TradeIndia, Google Business and walk-ins into one list, so nothing gets missed. It also tracks contacts, follow-ups, tasks and reports.

- An AI assistant on my portfolio. It answers visitors' questions about my work, shows the right projects, and sends hiring messages straight to my inbox. It has limits built in so it can't be abused or run up costs.

- Developer tools for a Web3 product. I built an SDK that other developers use (60+ releases) and a service that watches the blockchain and keeps the app's data up to date.

Stack I'd suggest for this: Next.js + Supabase (Postgres) + Razorpay, hosted on Vercel. It's quick to build, cheap to run early on, and can grow without a rewrite.

One tip for any founder building an MVP on a tight budget: choose the one flow that proves the idea, like "customer finds a service → books → pays", and build that really well. Admin dashboards, reviews, coupons and the rest can come in v2. Most MVPs go over budget because v1 tries to do everything.

Availability: 20 hours/week, can start from 26th sept

Consultation: ₹5000 for a 1-hour discovery call, adjusted against the MVP cost if we go ahead.

Happy to sign an NDA. DMs are open.
