Opportunities

Hey, I’m Will Wegert — Rumor has it I’m Colorado’s #1 Most Bald-est Software Engineering / Tech Recruiter. https://www.linkedin.com/in/willwegert

My team and I specialize in helping helping Senior, Lead, Staff & Principal Software Developers and Technical Leaders across the country find exiting new roles.  We  hire “uncommonly good” Sr, Lead, Staff & Principal Devs (& “Hands-On” Managers’) and tech professionals. 
 

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE ROLE:

This is an opportunity to lead a 6-member dev team (11 total employees) with a deeply passionate SF startup, and some of the most empathetic Founders I’ve met. They’ve got strong revenue/ARR, proven product-market fit, notable investors, education, and experience from everyone on the core team.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MY CLIENT:

My client is a highly pragmatic, practical, and “realistic” team founded in 2020. Their leadership team (whom you would work very closely with) boasts a strong vision and strong history: **MIT, Carnegie Mellon, Google, Uber, Palantir**, and, of course, several successful VC-backed startups, since. They’ve very recently raised a ~4MM seed (backed by top institutional investors), and they are poised to continue their steady growth and continue to take market share away from the big players in their space.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOU:

They are looking for a hands-on, staff/principal level dev to come in and organically take the reins over a team of ~6 mid-level devs, to help clear up more time for the Co-Founders (both humble 10X devs) to focus on more go-to-market activities — their sales pipeline is blowing up RN!

Ideally, they are looking for someone passionate about startups with an owner/founder mentality. They are looking for a proven experience both in large company ventures as well as at least 1 iteration of leading an engineering team, taking them through Seed and into the A and B rounds.

LOCATION: They currently boast a strong remote culture with quarterly offsite. That said, the 2 Co-Founders are based in SF, and they will be looking to hire key players who are also in SF, as they plan to offer the option for a Hybrid environment in the near future (hence for this role, they are only considering folks living in, or looking to relocate to the Bay area).

TECH STACK: They hire polyglots, so tech stack/background is no issue. That said, FWIW, you’d be working largely in Python/Typescript/React.

COMPENSATION

The budgeted range is 140K – 180K for a Senior Dev, and up to 200K for a “Staff” level dev. We are happy to talk with candidates who are looking for to 225K, and try to make a presentation on your behalf. Given the phase of the company, there will of course also be options for VERY strong equity.

If this sounds interesting, drop your resume here.

Cheers,

-Will
