Wanted: Technical Co-Founder (CTO) for an AI-Native Cybersecurity Platform — from the Founder of MyHackerTech APPLY NOW
San Francisco
A rare chance to co-found a new security platform with built-in advantages: a global community, a trusted brand, and direct access to early users and design partners. We’re building a product that helps defenders move faster, learn continuously, and turn real incidents into repeatable wins.
Why this is different
- Immediate reach: Launch and iterate with a large, engaged MyHackerTech audience and industry relationships.
- Content engine: Years of hands-on security content to transform into evaluations, drills, and onboarding experiences.
- Operator DNA: Bias to ship, learn from users, and compound—same ethos that grew MyHackerTech into a trusted name.
What you’ll own
- Co-create the product vision and roadmap with the founder.
- Lead V1 to market, run tight feedback loops with early customers, and turn signal into traction.
- Build and coach a small, exceptional founding team.
- Set quality, security, and delivery standards that scale.
Who you are
- Zero-to-one builder with strong product sense and taste.
- You’ve shipped meaningful systems in security or AI (or both), and you care about reliability and user outcomes.
- Comfortable wearing many hats—architecture, hiring, delivery, and occasional IC work.
- Clear communicator who can translate complex problems into simple experiences.
What you get
- True co-ownership: CTO & Co-founder title with meaningful equity.
- Autonomy with support: Freedom to build, backed by an active community and design partners.
- Real impact: Work that moves the needle for defenders and teams, not just dashboards.
Near-term milestones
- 0–30 days: Align on vision, validate with design partners, and lock the initial problem slice.
- 30–90 days: Ship V1, prove clear user value, and iterate weekly with real-world use.
- 90–180 days: Convert pilots to paying customers and hire 1–3 founding engineers.
How to apply
Email sales [at] myhackertech [dot] com with:
- Links (GitHub, LinkedIn, portfolio)
- 3–5 bullets on builds you’re proud of
- One paragraph on how you’d approach “AI-native” security without boiling the ocean
If this isn’t you but someone comes to mind, please tag or intro them. Let’s build something defenders actually love to use. 🛡️⚡
