I need someone to join me in most exciting journey of your life. We have found the key to determinative LLM control and we are in production today. This product has implications for all knowledge workers and will revolutionize how we do work. We are also focused on changing the paradigm of how we create software. From prompt to code…
We need a visionary. With practical skills. Real world experience launching apps in the market. Large complex systems and small fun ones and everything in between, we need a theorist who likes to practice. Conversant in legacy full stack and passionate about AI.
I already did this once; I grew and sold a successful banking software company exited a few years back. Now it is time to run again!!!
And boy, this time the idea is gonna force an entire paradigm shift.
I can pay a little to start for a little bit of your effort. Once we get going you can quit your job and we can work on this new compelling vision. Just want to be clear if you need a fully paid position, this is probably not ideal. But, that said, maybe while you hunt for your next job, you have some time!
Come explore the future…
Reach out when ya can with a CV and a story!!!
