Privacy-first Location Services
I'm building a founding team of engineers who are passionate about privacy. And about the potential to architect a mobile app and backend with massive scale and reach. I've co-founded two startups before (2nd one acquired), then took a few years out to study applied science at MIT. Now there's a product I'm insanely passionate about turning into another startup. Working with counsel, I filed two patent applications on a technology solution for getting the benefits of location sharing without reducing any user’s privacy or anonymity. And I've validated the growth model with two key channels who bring a critical mass of users. I have funding: offer of convertible note funding from a friendly VC, and the ability to self-fund this through MVP.
The key roles I'm pulling together are UI/UX, front-end (Swift/iOS first), back end (large data/map optimization), but mostly I'm looking for strong technical generalists who are also excited about building a startup with a culture that loves learning, technical problem solving, and is located walking distance from MIT. Depending on the founding team, we may explore becoming a remote-first company. REDACTED_EMAIL
