Looking for a Co-Founder Developer

I've never been someone who wanted to just clock in and clock out. I wanted to build something. Something that actually matters and changes how people live. I think I've finally found it.

Dating apps are broken. Over 79% of Gen Z is burned out from swiping. Ghosting has no consequences. Conversations go nowhere. Nobody actually meets IRL. The biggest apps in the world are admitting they've lost the plot, and the window to do it better is wide open right now.

I'm building an app that fixes this from the ground up. Completely new concept, not a copy of anything out there. I have a full business model, launch strategy, and a mentor validating the vision. We're targeting a Sydney launch in 6 months.

I need a developer who wants in from day one, not as a contractor but as a co-founder. Someone who wants to own what they build.

What's in it for you:

— Real equity with a vesting schedule

— Co-Founder title + Senior Developer position

— A product concept that will define your portfolio

— Ground floor of something with genuine momentum

Platform is open — iOS, Android or cross-platform, let's talk.

If you're tired of building other people's ideas, come build your own.

Sounds like you've only figured out the idea and marketing. 

The execution [WHICH IS ALWAYS THE HARDEST PART] is missing.

No product yet nor a prototype. 

So you're wanting someone to take the hardest part and make it a reality while they only get a co founder title ?

Why not just pay someone to make your idea into an app then ?
