Overview

Co-Founder (CTO) – Build a Global Human Connection Platform

We’re looking for a technical Co-founder to help build a global product.

______

Company Description

We’re building Glint — a global human connection platform designed to help people meet, connect, and share real-life experiences in the physical world.

Glint is a proximity-based social platform that reimagines how people interact in modern cities by combining mobility, timing, and real-world discovery into a unified experience.

It enables trusted, consent-based real-world interactions between nearby users, creating a safer and more natural way for people to connect in today’s cities.

We are currently in the early product development stage, building the foundation of a scalable global platform.

______

Role: Co-Founder (CTO)

We are looking for a technical co-founder, not an employee.

Someone who wants to build from zero, take full ownership of the technical foundation, and help shape a global consumer product from its earliest stage.

This is a hands-on founding role with full responsibility for engineering, architecture, and execution.

______

Responsibilities

  • Full technical ownership of the platform
  • Define system architecture and tech stack
  • Build and ship the MVP from scratch
  • Design scalable backend and real-time systems
  • Own technical roadmap from MVP to scale
  • Collaborate closely with the founder on product direction
  • Lay the foundation for future engineering team
  • ______
  • What we’re looking for
  • Technical profile:
  • Strong full-stack or mobile development experience
  • Proven ability to build MVPs from scratch
  • Strong backend and system design thinking
  • Experience with real-time or geo-based systems is a plus
  • Comfortable working in early-stage, fast-changing environments

Mindset

  • Founder mindset (ownership > tasks)
  • Fast execution over perfection
  • Comfortable with uncertainty and iteration
  • Strong belief in building meaningful consumer products
  • ______
  • Why this matters
  • We live in a world where people are more connected than ever digitally, yet more disconnected in real life than ever before.
  • Most platforms today focus on:
  • transactions
  • surface-level social interaction
  • We’re building something different:
  • a new layer of real-world human connection designed for modern cities to reduce social isolation in cities by helping verified users safely meet and share experiences in real life, with technology and AI helping match people whose intent, context, and timing align.
  • ______
  • What we offer
  • Co-founder (CTO) role
  • Significant equity stake (early-stage founding level)
  • Full technical ownership and autonomy
  • Direct partnership with the founder
  • Opportunity to build a global consumer platform from scratch
  • ______

Stage

  • Early-stage startup (pre-seed / MVP phase)
  • Vision, roadmap, and product direction defined
  • Focus: MVP execution and product build
  • Designed for global scalability from day one
  • ______
  • If this resonates
  • If you’re a believer and expert builder who wants to create something extraordinary, let’s talk.
  • Reach out directly on LinkedIn.
