Ask HN: My media startup has every position ready to be filled – except CTO!
Hello, I'm a media startup co-founder who hasn't had luck finding a college-aged/recent graduate to fill our CTO position. I initially found a brilliant recent Caltech graduate who held the position for 3 months; however, he had to back out because of increased responsibilities at Oracle. We're ready to go with an all-star team lineup, but I need to find a young go-getter for the CTO position.<p>I'd appreciate any suggestions or recommendations - can't find a CTO candidate who has an interest in doing some things in the music and entertainment spaces that aren't being done now.
- eip 12y agoLots of work? Low pay? Sounds awesome.
- hjvo 12y agoI'm sorry for the delay - I forgot about the post after Monday. There's great pay, it's just that I'd like to find a college-aged or recent graduate programmer/developer because I think such a person would be more enthusiastic about our efforts. Aside from the startup's Director of R&D choice - a successful researcher and Caltech professor who's worked with several startups, each member of the startup's early-stage team has held high level positions at leading entertainment, tech and/or music companies.
