Ask HN: How to find a CTO (or similar) position in a startup?

2 points by kiril-me 7y ago ↗ HN

What sites to look for the position?

Should you ask friends/colleagues?

What knowledge should you have to fill comfortable on that role?

How can you grow to be a leader?

Whats motivate you to be CTO?

Should you live in a Silicon valley?

It's rare to hire CTO for a startup.

Most of the times, cofounder is the CTO and often unpaid untill ofc the startup gets funding and takes over from there.

How about the situation when the startup has nontechnical cofounders?
