WE’RE HIRING: FOUNDING CHIEF TECHNOLOGY OFFICER (CTO)

ProfilePro | Equity-Based Opportunity

ProfilePro is looking for a hands-on, technically strong Chief Technology Officer to join us as we prepare for launch.

We’re at an advanced stage of product development. Most of the platform has been built, and we’re looking for someone who can take ownership of the existing codebase, assess its readiness for deployment, strengthen its technical foundation, and help us get the platform ready for users.

This is a hands-on engineering role. We’re looking for someone who can write and understand code independently, not someone who relies entirely on AI-generated code.

WHAT YOU’LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR

  • Conduct a thorough technical review of ProfilePro’s existing codebase.
  • Assess the platform’s stability, performance, architecture, and readiness for production deployment.
  • Identify and resolve existing code errors, bugs, glitches, and functionality issues.
  • Strengthen platform security and address potential vulnerabilities.
  • Review and improve backend and frontend functionality.
  • Optimize the platform for performance, reliability, and scalability.
  • Manage deployment and help transition ProfilePro into a live production environment.
  • Handle ongoing technical maintenance, corrections, updates, and improvements.
  • Establish proper development practices, documentation, backups, and technical safeguards.
  • Work closely with the founder on product improvements and future technical development.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

  • Strong practical software development experience.
  • Ability to code manually and independently, with a solid understanding of programming fundamentals.
  • Experience working across frontend and backend development.
  • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience reviewing existing codebases and preparing applications for production.
  • Knowledge of database management, APIs, authentication, and application security.
  • Experience with deployment, cloud infrastructure, and application maintenance.
  • Ability to work with AI-assisted development tools while understanding, reviewing, and validating the code being produced.
  • Someone who can take initiative, make sound technical decisions, and take ownership of their work.

COMPENSATION STRUCTURE

This is currently an equity-based opportunity.

There is no guaranteed fixed salary during the first 12 months following engagement, as ProfilePro is still in its early, pre-revenue stage.

The selected candidate will receive an agreed equity stake in the company, subject to a formal vesting arrangement and signed agreement.

The role and compensation structure will be reviewed every three months, with any future financial compensation dependent on the company’s financial position and mutual agreement.

WHO SHOULD APPLY?

We’re looking for someone who is genuinely interested in building and growing a technology company, can work independently, and understands the responsibility that comes with owning a product’s technical foundation.

If you’re confident in your engineering abilities and would like to take on a meaningful technical leadership role in an early-stage technology company, we’d love to hear from you.
