Overview

(Filled) Two YouTubers (each with around 800K subscribers) are looking for a CTO for their app, and after talking with them I really like the direction they’re taking. If I didn’t have my own platform to look after, I’d be tempted to jump ship myself 🤣 I think it’s a pretty great opportunity, so I’m asking all of you whether you can recommend anyone.

Main requirements:

  1. Native app development
  2. Tech stack: Swift, Kotlin, Firebase
  3. Management experience, leading a team of 1–2 people
  4. Some business sense, and experience taking a product from 0 to 1

The product has been in development for over a year, with steady users and traffic. Feel free to DM me or leave a comment with questions.

Reflections Meadow When You Learn to Embrace Failure, Opportunity Is Waiting Around the Corner I almost gave up on an application after weeks of silence. One follow-up email asking for feedback got me into the next round, and taught me that real failure is when you stop learning. Reflections Meadow Expanding My Capacity as a Founder Recent meetups with founders from hardware, green energy and sales have stretched how I think. Why talking with founders outside AI keeps changing my assumptions and helps me with my own problems. Reflections Meadow From Knowing What to Do to Knowing Why We Do It A strategy workshop with AppWorks and Fresh Milk Workshop made me see I'd been working only on the "what" and never on the "why," and why writing down our vision and mission finally gave me a North Star.
