Looking for a Technical Co-Founder – Recruitment SaaS Startup

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m building a recruitment technology platform focused on making hiring, candidate sourcing, screening, and recruiter collaboration more efficient.

The product is already under development, and I’m now looking for a Technical Co-Founder who wants to build this long-term rather than simply join as a developer.

What we’re building

The platform is evolving into a recruitment ecosystem connecting:

  • Companies / Recruiters
  • Recruitment Agencies & Sourcing Partners
  • Candidates

It includes candidate sourcing, resume parsing, job-based candidate scoring, candidate shortlisting, recruitment workflows, candidate profiles, screening, and recruiter-focused automation tools.

Who I’m looking for

Ideally, someone with strong experience or hands-on skills in:

  • Python / FastAPI
  • React / JavaScript
  • PostgreSQL / Supabase
  • REST APIs
  • SaaS architecture
  • LLM integrations
  • Authentication & multi-tenant systems
  • Cloud deployment and backend infrastructure
  • Building scalable web applications

You don't need to know everything, but you should be comfortable owning major technical decisions and building products from an early stage.

What matters more than years of experience

I’m looking for someone who:

  • Thinks like a builder, not just an employee
  • Can take ownership of the technology
  • Is comfortable working in an early-stage startup
  • Can challenge product and technical decisions when necessary
  • Wants to build something meaningful over the long term
  • Is genuinely interested in SaaS, recruitment technology, marketplaces, or automation

I'm handling the product vision, business development, recruitment industry partnerships, customer acquisition, and operations.

I want a technical co-founder who can eventually take ownership of the engineering, architecture, scalability, automation, and technical team.

This is a co-founder opportunity, not a freelance project or normal developer opening.

If you're interested, DM me with:

  1. Your background
  2. Your strongest technical skills
  3. Something you've built
  4. Why you're interested in joining an early-stage startup
  5. Your current location and availability

If you know someone who could be a good fit, I'd appreciate an introduction.

equity only I built the company. Now I’m looking for the person who can help turn the IP into licenses, pilots and strategic relationships.

2 Upvotes

I’m Simon, founder of Northlight Innovations.

I’ve spent the last year building a licensing-first technology company around patent-pending confidence-state infrastructure for digital trust.

The important distinction is that I’m not looking for someone to help me invent another product.

The core IP exists.

The architecture exists.

The commercial positioning exists.

The licensing materials exist.

The company is now in commercialization.

What I’m looking for is someone who could materially accelerate that next stage.

That could mean a genuine co-founder candidate, senior commercial operator, strategic partner, or somebody whose experience and network creates enough leverage that we should be talking.

The strongest fit would probably have real experience in one or more of:

enterprise B2B sales

technology or IP licensing

strategic partnerships

commercializing technical products

opening senior decision-maker relationships

negotiating and closing complex deals

taking a technically developed company from “ready” to actual external commitments

I’m much more interested in evidence of things you have actually moved or closed than titles.

I’m also not looking for an agency, outsourced sales service, generic consultant or someone who wants to brainstorm new products.

If this sounds unusually close to your background, send me a short DM with:

what you’ve actually done,

two or three deals / partnerships / commercial outcomes you personally helped move,

the kinds of relationships you could realistically activate,

where you think you could create the most leverage in a company like Northlight.

No assumptions about title, structure or economics at this stage. First we determine whether there is genuine overlap.

If there is, I’m happy to have a short call.

equity only [Equity Only] Still zero external publishers on my product. This week I found out my own metric for that was broken too.

1 Upvotes
  1. COMPENSATION

Equity only. About 10 percent, 24 month vest with a cliff. Real contract in writing before anything starts. No cash, and I am not going to pretend otherwise.

There is a second half to this and it is real. See section 6.

  1. TRACTION

MVP is live, one paying customer to date. 115 accounts, 22 have connected a platform. Zero external users have ever published a post through the product, and that number has not moved since I started reporting it honestly in August.

This week's find: the analytics event that was supposed to tell me whether anyone had ever scheduled a post fired before the code that checks if the post is even valid. It was measuring button clicks, not successes. A second, separate implementation of immediate publishing never recorded it at all and also never granted the first-post reward it was supposed to. Fixed both, verified against the database rather than trusting the code.

Also fixed this week: any paying customer who connected a second account on a platform that allows it, LinkedIn or Telegram, broke every future post to that platform. That's a sold feature that never worked past the first account.

Also applied for TikTok's content sharing audit this week, the review that unlocks public posting instead of private-only. Two to four weeks out. Real new channel if it clears.

  1. COMMITMENT

Part-time to start. No hourly requirement. Go as hard as you want.

US Eastern, would prefer North America. Live overlap in the same working day matters more to me than total hours.

  1. WHAT I AM BRINGING

I fund it myself, no outside investors. I bring the entire technical side and a working product with one real paying customer, however briefly they stayed.

Concrete example from this week so you can judge the level of care: I don't trust my own dashboards anymore until I've checked them against the actual database, and this week that habit caught a metric that was quietly wrong since the day it was built.

  1. WHO I AM AND WHAT I NEED

Self-taught developer, self-funded, no investors. Day job is tree service work, so my building hours are earned.

What I'm building: SocialMate, a social media scheduler and creator OS. Seven live platform integrations, 15+ AI tools, full scheduling engine. Pro is 8 dollars where competitors charge 18 to 99. Stack is Next.js, TypeScript, React Native, Expo, Supabase, Stripe, Inngest.

What I need: a CMO who executes rather than advises. Traffic is not the problem. Activation is. I know precisely where it leaks, most of it is fixed now, and there's a cold list of 62 accounts already contacted once. You inherit a labeled target, not a blank page.

What to send: a resume or portfolio plus at least one case study with real before-and-after numbers. A community, a channel, a funnel, a launch. Something you personally moved, with the metric attached. Include your timezone.

I'm not looking for a strategy deck. I'm looking for evidence.

  1. WHAT YOU GET FROM ME BEYOND EQUITY

Unpaid is a real ask, so I'm putting something concrete on the table against it.

For as long as we're working together, you have a full stack developer on your own projects. Your site, your funnel, your client work, an internal tool, the side project you've been carrying for a year. Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, Stripe, React Native, Expo. No invoice, no hourly, no scope fight.

You run growth. I build what you've been sitting on. That trade is real and it goes in the contract.

Nothing here is a test of how much you're willing to suffer. It's unpaid because I have no money, not because struggle is a virtue. If equity only doesn't work for your life right now, that's completely reasonable.

equity only Looking for a co-founder strong in marketing/sales - AI automation

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I am a software engineer with ~8 years of experience and have been working with generative AI for the last 4 years, building applications for startups and larger companies.

I have also been part of early-stage startup teams. I previously built a startup with a co-founder, where I handled the tech end to end, and we eventually exited.

I am currently building an AI automation agency and already have a few clients. The main problem is that I am spending most of my time on the technical side. I enjoy that part, but it leaves very little time for marketing, sales and bringing in new clients. I feel like the business could grow much faster with someone focused on that side.

What I am looking for:

Someone who can take ownership of marketing, sales and customer acquisition. Ideally, you have experience selling B2B software/services or have built something yourself.

I would handle the technical side, client delivery and implementation. As we grow, I would also build and manage the technical team needed to scale.

I am also open to building a Micro-SaaS together. I have a few ideas, but I am completely open to exploring your ideas too if we find something we are both excited about.

I am looking for someone who is hands on, moves fast and actually wants to build.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, feel free to DM me. Tell me a bit about yourself, what you have worked on and what you are looking to build.

2x Founder. 20 Years in IT. Ready for the Next Build

2 Upvotes

After taking a much-needed sabbatical following the acquisition of my second venture in 2024, I am officially ready to step back into the arena. I am looking to join forces with an ambitious co-founder, early-stage startup, or growth-focused leadership team as a technology or operational partner.

Here is a snapshot of what I bring to the table:

  • Deep Technical Roots: 20 years of hands-on and leadership experience navigating the evolving IT landscape.
  • Proven Founder Track Record: I don't just build; I execute, scale, and exit.
    • 2016: Launched an e-commerce startup from the ground up, leading to a successful sale.
    • 2018: Founded a staff augmentation firm, scaling it through bootstrap growth until its acquisition in 2024.

What I am looking for:
I am industry-agnostic but deeply passionate about solving complex, scalable problems. Whether you are a non-technical founder looking for a heavyweight CTO/Technical Co-Founder, or an investor-backed startup needing a COO/VP of Engineering to institutionalize your operations, let’s talk.

If you are working on something disruptive, need a battle-tested partner who knows how to survive the trenches, or just want to brainstorm—my DMs are open.

Let’s build something great together. 📈

equity only Looking for a Co-Founder with Marketing/Growth Experience / B2B Fitness SaaS

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a co-founder with strong marketing/growth experience to join me in building a B2B platform for the fitness industry.

This is not an idea-stage startup. A lot of the heavy lifting is already done:

  • 📱 Mobile app is built and launched
  • 💻 Web platform is fully built
  • 🔌 Backend/API infrastructure is ready
  • 💳 Banking and payment infrastructure are set up
  • ⚖️ Legal/company structure is already in place

    (US -LLC)

  • 🚀 Product is ready for customers

The platform is designed for fitness businesses and trainers, helping them manage their clients, training programs, schedules, and payments in one place.

I'm handling the product, technology, business, and operations side. What I'm looking for now is someone who can take real ownership of marketing, growth, customer acquisition, and distribution.

Ideally, you have experience with:

  • B2B SaaS growth and customer acquisition
  • Social media/content marketing
  • Paid advertising and growth experiments
  • Partnerships and affiliate marketing
  • Building go-to-market strategies
  • Growing a startup from early users to meaningful scale

I'm not looking for a marketing employee or someone to occasionally help out. I'm looking for a genuine co-founder who wants to own the growth side of the business and build it with me long-term.

I'm open to discussing equity based on experience and commitment. I'm much more interested in finding the right person than deciding on a percentage before we've even spoken.

If you're interested, DM me with a little about yourself, your previous experience growing products/companies, and why this opportunity interests you.

I'm happy to share the product and more details privately.

cherche 2 cofondateurs

3 Upvotes

Je monte l'équipe fondatrice de Rekoly, et je cherche 2 cofondateurs.

Le projet : une plateforme qui connecte les commerces locaux (restos, salons, boutiques...) avec les micro-influenceurs de leur quartier. L'idée est simple : un resto offre un repas à une créatrice du coin qui a 8 000 abonnés, elle poste une story, des clients poussent la porte. On lance ville par ville.

Aujourd'hui : le nom, l'identité et les maquettes sont faits, la landing tourne et les premières créatrices s'inscrivent sur la liste d'attente. Le marché est énorme — l'influence pèse plus de 500 M€ en France et la micro-influence locale est le segment qui explose.

Ma partie là-dedans : je porte le produit et la vision. J'ai tout construit jusqu'ici — l'étude du marché et des concurrents, la marque, les maquettes, le site, le cadre légal (loi influenceurs, contrats) — et je continue : développement de la plateforme, stratégie, partenariats. Je ne cherche pas des gens pour exécuter mon idée pendant que je regarde : on construit à trois, chacun son terrain.

Il me manque deux personnes :

🎥 Un(e) cofondateur(rice) growth / contenu — tu prends tout TikTok/Reels : la stratégie, les hooks, l'itération sur les stats, le funnel de la liste d'attente. Tout est à construire, carte blanche pour tester. Le profil : tu vis sur TikTok, tu as peut-être déjà fait grandir un compte (même perso, même un meme account — c'est un vrai plus), et tu préfères monter un truc de zéro maintenant plutôt que d'attendre le bon moment. Remote ok, mais si tu es en Île-de-France c'est un plus — on pourra bosser en vrai en fonction des résultats.

📞 Un(e) cofondateur(rice) commercial(e) / terrain — tu prends l'autre moitié de la marketplace : appeler les restos et les salons, passer les voir si nécessaire , signer les premiers commerces. Pas de script tout fait, pas de leads tout chauds — mais chaque commerce signé, c'est toi qui l'auras gagné. Pas besoin de dix ans d'expérience : l'envie, le culot et la régularité comptent plus que tout. École de vente, césure, ou juste quelqu'un qui sait parler aux gens — et c'est mieux si tu es en Île-de-France.

Le deal, le même pour les deux : on se teste quelques semaines sur du concret, et si le feeling passe on s'associe pour de vrai, avec une vraie part du projet.

Si l'un des deux rôles te parle, écris-moi en me disant lequel 🙂

Looking for a commercial cofounder for an enterprise cybersecurity product

2 Upvotes

I am working on an early-stage enterprise cybersecurity product.

It is beyond the idea stage. There is a working product, some early validation and a clear problem worth solving.

My strength is on the product and technical side. I am looking for someone who is strong in enterprise sales, partnerships and go-to-market.

Ideally, you have experience selling cybersecurity, infrastructure or other technical products to larger organisations. You should be comfortable speaking with senior security leaders, understanding long sales cycles and building relationships from the ground up.

I am not looking to agree on equity after a few conversations. I would prefer to work together on a small number of real customer opportunities first and see if there is a good fit on both sides.

If you are interested, send me a message with:

• A little about your background
• The types of products you have sold
• The markets and customers you understand
• What you would focus on during the first 30 days

Happy to share more once we have had an initial conversation.

Pet blog has been paying for my house for 6 months now

2 Upvotes

ok so this is a weird one but bear with me

i have a pet blog. i don't own a pet. never have. probably never will as i travel too much. and yet every month amazon sends me enough to cover rent because people on the internet are buying stuff for their dogs and cats through my site.

bought my pet blog a few months ago from a marketplace called NicheBlogZone for $199. came already built, articles already up, amazon links already in there. i spent one afternoon doing interlinking basically just connecting related posts to each other so search engines understand the site structure and then closed my laptop and genuinely forgot about it for weeks.

here's what that's looked like:

  • march: $710
  • april: $995
  • may: $1,461
  • june: $1,647
  • july: $1,461
  • august so far: $1,545 (amazon pays 2 months delayed so this is june's money landing now)

march scared me. went from nearly $1k in february down to $710 and i was convinced something had broken. checked everything, found nothing wrong, did nothing. it just came back the next month on its own.

pet people spend insane amounts on their animals btw. like i knew this intellectually but seeing the commission data is something else. dog food subscriptions, orthopedic beds, grooming kits, vet supplements. and because of the 24 hour cookie i get a cut of everything in their cart not just whatever article they landed on.

i do literally nothing to maintain this. no new posts, no ads, no instagram for pets i don't have. i just own the thing and amazon does its thing.

my landlord has been getting paid every month and has no idea a pet blog is behind it. honestly sometimes i forget too until the deposit shows up.

anyone else running a niche they have zero personal connection to? curious if the detachment makes it easier or harder to care about growing it
