Chief Technology Officer/Core Team Member - Startup

Chief Technology Officer/Core Team Member

About the startup :

- I read somewhere that it takes 3 to make a successful company- a hustler (marketing), a hipster (product), and a hacker (engineering). So we are looking for the "hacker" to take our startup to the next level and make it a global company.

- If you love startups (for the right reasons) and have awesome hands-on technical skills, great attitude, integrity-and can commit for the long haul - let's talk.

What we are looking for?

- We are looking for an experienced (ideally full stack) CTO to lead the company's technological vision, design and implement technology roadmap, mentor and develop the team, and ensure that the technical resources are aligned with the company's business needs.

- Reporting to the founder, the tech-head will lead our mission to utilize technology to improve efficiency, accessibility, and experience for Lets Link's user-base from the scratch.

- Any experience growing a Social Media/IM startup would be incredibly valuable, especially the iterative process of getting to product-market fit. It would also help if you could get up to speed quickly and understand the structure of the codebase to turn around new updates fast.

Our Perks :

- LetsLink is pre-seed, but we are in the process of raising funds.

- Further, this is a CTO and Core Team role in an upcoming startup, so the significant portion of the compensation will be in the form of Equity. An official (paid) offer will only be there once we've successfully raised our seed round.

E- quity : 1-10% depending on experience and contribution. The salary post-seed raise is negotiable, but, in all likelihood, it will be in the range of (8L-24L PA ) bracket as investors prefer that their money goes initially into building the company than salaries. The good news is that with subsequent fundraise, the salary and the "equity" value go up dramatically the perks of the startup.
