Am technical and worked with some pretty poor non technical co-founders but also worked with an amazing one. The difference:
Real, ridiculous charisma (like can totally work a room, will impress almost anyone they sit down with), very aggressive on the commercial side, down-to-earth judgment/understands things/easy to be on same page.
Might have viewed being insanely charismatic as a red flag but I saw first hand how easy it was to get meetings, create business and client relationships, and have employees basically loving the guy.
So a good test is: does this non technical cofounder simply blow me away as a person and in their manners.
