Description
I am building a biometric‑first fintech solution designed to enable seamless, secure transactions without the need for phones, cards, or any physical device. The vision is a future where identity itself becomes the payment method. The startup is currently at the idea stage, and I am looking for a CTO or founding engineer to partner with me in bringing this concept to life.
You will lead the technical execution while we shape the product direction together. I bring the vision, strategy, and business direction; you bring the technical expertise to turn that vision into a real, scalable product. This is a collaborative founding role where your input will meaningfully influence the product, but the direction is shared.
What you’ll do
- Lead technical strategy, architecture, and early engineering decisions
- Build and iterate on the MVP (backend, mobile, or full‑stack depending on your strengths)
- Develop secure biometric authentication flows and identity‑based transaction systems
- Explore and integrate technologies that enable phone‑free, device‑free payments
- Collaborate closely with me on product decisions, user experience, and roadmap
What you bring
- Strong engineering background (backend, full‑stack, mobile, or ML/biometrics)
- Experience with authentication, security, or fintech systems is a major advantage
- Ability to build fast, test hypotheses, and iterate
- Curiosity about biometrics, identity, and frictionless financial experiences
- A collaborative mindset and desire to join a founding team
What’s in it for you
- Significant equity and meaningful ownership
- A true partnership where your technical leadership is valued
- The opportunity to help define a new category of biometric‑driven financial technology
- The chance to build a breakthrough fintech product from zero
- A partnership with a founder focused on vision, strategy, and business development.
