About the role
Description supplied by the original job listing.
Looking for a Technical Co-Founder | 40% Equity | SaaS Startup
Location: Remote
Role: Technical Co-Founder / Software Engineer Co-Founder
Equity: 40%
Initial compensation: No salary until the business achieves cash flow
Looking for a highly motivated Software Engineer Co-Founder to join me in building and launching a new SaaS product from the ground up.
This is not a traditional employment role. I am looking for someone who wants to become a genuine technical co-founder and owner of a SaaS business, take responsibility for the technology, and build something with long-term potential.
What I am looking for
You should have strong knowledge and practical experience across full-stack software development, with the ability to take a SaaS product from an idea to a working, scalable application.
You should be comfortable with:
Full-stack web development
Front-end and back-end development
Modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks
React, Next.js, or similar technologies
Python and/or other strong backend languages
APIs and third-party integrations
Databases and cloud infrastructure
Authentication, payments and SaaS architecture
Git/GitHub and modern development workflows
AI integration and AI-powered applications
LLM APIs and AI automation
Vibe coding and AI-assisted software development
Using tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Bolt, or similar AI development tools
You do not need to know every technology listed above. What matters most is that you are a strong problem solver, learn quickly, and understand how to use modern AI tools to build software significantly faster.
The opportunity
We will work together to:
Identify and validate a strong SaaS opportunity
Design and develop the MVP
Use AI and modern development methods to accelerate development
Launch the product
Acquire our first users and customers
Continuously improve the product based on real customer feedback
Build the company towards sustainable revenue and long-term growth
Equity & compensation
Equity: 40%
The selected person will receive 40% ownership/equity in the SaaS startup, subject to a formal co-founder agreement and appropriate vesting arrangements.
There will be no salary or fixed compensation initially. We will both contribute our time and expertise while we build the product.
Once the business achieves sufficient cash flow/revenue, we can introduce compensation based on the company's financial position and our agreed structure.
This opportunity is therefore best suited to someone who is comfortable taking early-stage startup risk in exchange for significant ownership and the opportunity to build a company from the ground up.
Work arrangement
