> I don't want to offer myself as CTO. Their current CTO is great, isn't experienced Frankly, I think you should forget about this company and move on. Everything about your post suggests that you think you know better than the startup, including their CTO. The fact that you would even consider bringing up the possibility of replacing their CTO is a sign that you don’t actually respect them or their team. There is no place in a startup for someone who believes themself to be superior to the management team. If you’re not interested in taking the pay cut and you don’t even respect the CTO’s abilities, there is no place for your at the startup.

They average age of the team is 25 I'm 37. Am I a better person because I'm old or experienced? No. I'm sorry if sound condescending about them, is my enthusiasm on knowing I can help, recently I help them scale basic infrastructure without expending more money, I also know the same stack of tools they manage so I have also enthusiasm to solve Problems they have because I had them in the past When I say I don't want to replace the CTO is because that was something offer to me, but as I said even if is not experienced he is far a better CTO than me, I'm a programmer a developer he has a vision and care about the product. Again sorry about sounding condescending I will pay attention to my writing. Thank you for your time and effort on your reply it is helping getting better at articulate my intent
