Tell HN: Accepted to DreamIt and looking for iPhone developer co-founder…

5 points by jessepickard ↗ HN
Our early-stage startup was accepted into DreamIt recently and we’re looking for one or two iPhone developers to join the founding team.

The product is a social game for teaching languages and other subjects, so it’s a major plus if you’ve worked on games before or even apps with animation.

We prefer someone who can come on board as a co-founder but are open to contract roles as long as you’re on-site in Philly with us. Housing will be provided.

I know it’s tough to find an iPhone developer given the contracting work out there, but I think this is an awesome opportunity nonetheless.

You’ll shape the vision of the product that was a finalist for three top accelerator programs including Y Combinator.

You’ll be working with a team with lots of experience in UX / UI design, marketing and education.

You’ll be a part of DreamIt, which offers a lot of serious benefits (mentorship, capital, networking, office space, etc.)

You’ll get paid, housing will be provided and true co-founder level equity will be provided

You’ll be working with two stand-up guys who just want to build a great product

I've worked with Jesse and Jeff and they're great guys. The product they're building is a great chance to make something that's both fun and very helpful for a lot of people. I'd step up to join them in a heartbeat if I wasn't already occupied.

Jesse can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think their product also involves a backend component for profiles, sharing, analytics, etc. The big picture will use an interesting blend of tech. It's a good opportunity to lead, learn and grow.

Thanks, Mike. We think the product is really interesting from a tech perspective. We're also looking to expand out to Facebook, iPad, and Android in the near future.
Congrats on DreamIt Jesse.

I've worked with Jesse before and can vouch for him. I too would join his team if I didn't already have prior commitments.

Best of luck guys.
