Programmers world over!! you looking for fun experience building a cool product?
We're looking for 2 programmers for the founding team of Hachi http://www.gohachi.com/ - there's a demo video.
We've been hustling the last few months to get Hachi off the ground - got an alpha out in March this year, and there's been tremendously encouraging feedback from early users, check out some of it here http://i.imgur.com/C2tED.png. We were also selected to present at International Startup Festival in Canada - http://www.startupfestival.com/en/. There's been pretty good investor interest (both fm US and Indian investors.. we've been approached by some really big time folks) - which we are now actively exploring. Moreover, we have insanely rocking superstar entrepreneurs / investors from silicon valley advising us!
Our beta list is steadily growing, and we're gearing up for the beta launch. We already have a strongly validated alpha and we have spent a lot of time talking to our users (1-1) to understand their needs in great detail. So, we have lots to do now! And that's why, we're looking for team members... perhaps you!
This is not just a cool product we're building, but a viable business too. It's $11 billion industry and rapidly growing, and money is already being made!
We're looking for someone who has (i.) some knowledge of graph theory and algorithms, coupled with (ii.) background in Computer Science, be it in the form of hobby programming, involvement in open source projects or something equivalent. Having built an app from scratch is a big huge plus! We don't care if you don't have zillions of years of experience, or if you are not familiar with the tools and technologies we use (CakePHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JQuery, social network APIs), so long as you are superbly confident that you can pick them up quickly, and write + push code to live site!
We are looking for someone who shares our entrepreneurial passion, is ambitious, open to ideas, has an appetite for startup roller-coaster ride. Our product Hachi stands for "smart + providing utility + fun + trustworthy"... and we want our team to embody the same values. No compromises on this one! We are highly focused on building a rockstar team.
We want someone who can commit full time. This role will be a combination of salary + equity (we believe in what we're doing, and so even in our bootstrapped stage, we're up for paying salary).
We're a US incorporated company, but currently we're based out of Bangalore (India) - and we want the team to be co-located, so the role will be based out of Bangalore. We know it's not THE silicon valley, but the startup scene is quite vibrant here - I was based out of valley for the last 7 years, and was pleasantly surprised to see lot of startup momentum in Bangalore, when I moved back few months ago. Moreover, the product we're building and the response we've been getting keeps us charged up all the time ..well, almost all the time :) ..we do have our superbly low moments too!! So, if you're up for some fun while building a cool product that can potentially change our lives (hopefully, for the better!), then do give this a serious thought.
Check out our splash page and, if it piques your interest, ping me (email on my profile page here), and I’ll provide you with an invite code to play with the app. And if you enjoy playing with it, and have ideas on how you can take it notches above, then let’s talk! I'll be in NYC & SF next week - so if you're interested and happen to be there, I'd love to meet up.
Ping right away, if this is YOU! Dying to hear from you!!
