Are you a visionary technical leader ready to revolutionize how job seekers find their dream roles and help grow the startup to its first million dollars? Then please read the full post before you apply! 

Our location is Mirpur, Dhaka.

We're an ambitious, early-stage startup building a cutting-edge, data-powered platform designed to be the ultimate assistant for job seekers. Our mission is to automate the job search process, provide advanced insights, and reshape how individuals connect with opportunities. 

Our business model is already proven and working on the web, and we're poised to build it perfectly to start generating significant revenue. We're seeking a passionate and experienced Founding CTO / Software Engineer to be our technical co-founder, bringing this vision to life and scaling our platform to its full potential.

This is a unique, high-impact opportunity for a leader willing to trade an early high salary for significant equity and the chance to own a substantial part of a rapidly growing software company.

About the Role:

As our Founding CTO / Lead Software Engineer, you will be the architect and lead developer, taking full ownership of our technical roadmap. You'll work with the CEO and founding team, translating our business vision into a scalable, high-performing product. This is a hands-on building role, allowing you to shape our platform's core technology and future, primarily focusing on empowering the job seeker.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Architecting, building, and scaling our automated job search tool and an advanced job board with job-scrapping features.
• Leading all development efforts across the Python backend and any chosen frontend stack preferably React/Nextjs/Vue 
• Designing and implementing scalable cloud infrastructure 
• Driving innovation in data scraping, intelligent job matching, application tracking, and personalized job seeker experiences.
• Eventually building and leading a small, high-performing technical team.
• Ensuring a security-first approach, valuing data privacy and robust system architecture.

You Should Apply If:

• You have 3-7 years of engineering experience with strong full-stack capabilities.
• You have experience building or contributing significantly to consumer-facing platforms or data-intensive web applications (job boards, search engines, or similar platforms are a plus).
• You are highly proficient in JavaScript for front end and Python for backend development.
• You are comfortable with modern frontend frameworks and can lead development in any chosen frontend stack (e.g., Vue, React, Next.js, etc.).
• You have experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Google Cloud, or similar).
• You have experience with Chrome Extension development or a strong aptitude for building one.
• You have previous startup or founding experience, or you're eager to step into such a role and comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous, and early-stage environments.
• You are a true co-founder mindset: resilient, innovative, adaptable, and deeply committed to a startup's success.
• You are looking for a fully remote position with flexible timing, empowering you to work from home.

You Should NOT Apply If:

• You are not proficient in Python for backend development.
• You are uncomfortable with a non-salaried, equity-only compensation model at this early stage.
• You prefer a structured corporate environment over a dynamic, hands-on startup where you'll wear multiple hats.
• You require a predefined, inflexible work schedule or cannot operate remotely.

What We Are Offering:

• Significant equity package reflecting your foundational role and the company's future success.  --- Please don't apply if you are not comfortable working for a non-salaried equity-based position until the company makes revenue. ----
• The chance to shape the future of job seeking by building an impactful product from the ground up.
• A high-impact leadership role with direct influence across product, technology, and growth strategies.
• A fully remote work environment with flexible timing empowers you to manage your work-life balance effectively.
• A culture centered on innovation, technical excellence, and disrupting the status quo.
