🚀 Technical Cofounder (Equity, Full-Time) — Live Traction with hockey-stick growth, Elite Team

## About the Role Join other Microsoft / Big-tech software engineers as our full time technical cofounder We're looking for a technical cofounder to join a small but impactful founding team that includes multiple Microsoft engineers, each with ~10 years in big tech, building a category-defining company in the creator economy. * Elite engineering team (Microsoft / big tech) * Strong business / product backgrounds * Live product with real users and early hockey stick growth of 500%+ WoW * Daily inbound demand * Applied to YC (S26) * High velocity, founder all-in * Equity-first, true ownership role * This is not a side project or idea-stage startup. It's early—but real and promising ## Why This Should Catch Your Attention if you're at FAANG Most startups fail due to weak teams or slow execution, not ideas. Here, you'd be joining: * Engineers who know how to ship, scale, and make tradeoffs * A product already in use—not a prototype * A large, global, structurally underserved market * A team optimizing for leverage, velocity, and taste This train has been built and is leaving the station. This is your chance to hop on board. ## Current Signal (What Actually Matters) * Product is live and being used * Users coordinating real workflows on-platform * Consistent inbound applications across multiple cities * Clear retention loops and feature pull * Traction and velocity included in our YC application This is execution, not hype. ## The Opportunity This is a true cofounder seat: * Own architecture and technical direction * Influence product and company strategy * Scale from early traction → breakout growth * Build alongside senior big-tech engineers * Receive meaningful equity with asymmetric upside You should be excited by who you're building with, not just what you're building. ## Who We're Open To We're intentionally broad on background, narrow on bar. You might be a fit if you: * Are a FAANG / big-tech engineer looking for ownership and impact * Are a high-signal early-career or new-grad engineer with exceptional background and "vibe coding" skills, product intuition, and evidence you can ship fast We care far more about: * Judgment * Taste * Speed * Systems thinking * …than titles ## Next Step If this resonates: * Send a short intro about yourself, your background and an impressive accomplishment * Where you're currently employed, or last job * Graduation date if recent grad * Tell us how much runway you have to work on a promising startup full-time solely for equity Details are intentionally high-level. The right person will want the conversation.
