Descrição da oferta de emprego

Opportunity

We’re looking for a CTO Co-Founder to help scale our AI‑powered recruitment platform. This role is equity‑based with no salary at the beginning, and involves leading technical development, defining the product vision, and working closely with the founding team.

What we’ve built so far

• Working AI‑powered sourcing tool
• Real jobs, candidates, and data flowing through the system
• Early version of our market insights module
• A talent marketplace and job board creator run for VC funds
• A lean and validated roadmap for real client impact
• Real users use the system every week

What we’re looking for

We’re seeking a CTO Co‑Founder who wants to build real product, not just ideas. You’ll lead technical development and help shape the product while keeping things simple, lean, and focused on real value.

There is no salary at this stage – only equity, ownership, and freedom. You can freelance elsewhere in the beginning.

Key qualifications

• Hands‑on coding (especially Python, APIs, AI integrations)
• Practical experience using AI (LLMs, Gemini, scraping, automations)
• Experience building lean backend‑first MVPs (FastAPI, Streamlit, etc.)
• Enjoy building things people use – fast, smart, and without BS
• Want equity and money from a real, potentially bootstrapped product
• See yourself scaling this with us, even slowly at first

Tech stack (current & expected)

• Python (FastAPI or Flask)
• Streamlit for UI
• Google Gemini API (open to other LLM providers)
• PostgreSQL or SQLite
• Bubble (nice to have)
• APIs in general
• Web crawlers
• Advanced scraping (LinkedIn public pages, job boards)
• Render, Railway, etc.

What we offer

• Equity in the product – clean cap table, fairness and transparency
• Clients and data from day one
• Real‑world use case and revenue already happening
• Autonomy and room to shape product and tech
• Option to start part‑time, then go deeper
• A lean roadmap and no wasted time on fake traction

Next steps

We’re open to builders who want to start part‑time and grow into a founding role. If you want to work on something real, smart, and ready to scale, let’s talk.

Ready for you if:

• You’ve built software for HR‑tech, marketplaces, or similar platforms.
• You’re tired of being just an employee – you want to build something that matters.
• You have hands‑on AI experience and can see its potential in recruitment.
• Your English is good (our clients and candidates are primarily native speakers).
• You have a genuine growth mindset and want to build something from the ground up.
• You can commit real time to this – not just scraps after your day job.

Not for you if:

• You expect a fat co‑founder salary from day one.
• You’re an ego‑driven tech bro with zero empathy.
• You crumble when things get tough (and they will).
