CTO / Tech Co-Founder gesucht für Stealth Mode – A Family Tech Venture

We’re looking for a purpose-driven technical co-founder with a strong product mindset and full-stack development experience. You should be proficient in modern technologies such as React, Next.js, Node.js, Firebase, and PostgreSQL or MongoDB, and comfortable integrating third-party APIs (e.g., Stripe, calendar sync, messaging), as well as implementing authentication, data protection, and security protocols from day one.

You care deeply about clean, scalable architecture and champion mobile-first, human-centred design. You'll co-lead the development of both web and mobile platforms, ensuring a seamless and intuitive user experience from launch.

You should also be comfortable working with AI tools, recommender systems, and platform automation. While deep AI expertise isn't required, you should be familiar with, or eager to quickly learn, integrating AI into booking flows, user preference management, and personalized discovery. This is a core aspect of our product vision.

Familiarity with GDPR principles and confidence in creating compliant data architecture is essential. Legal support will be available, but you’ll be responsible for implementing foundational privacy and security measures from the outset.

Fluent English is required, and proficiency in German is a strong advantage, especially for communication with local partners and handling potential user support scenarios.

You’re collaborative, self-driven, and excited to co-create something meaningful from the ground up, guided by care, clarity, and a long-term vision.

You’ll co-lead the development of our web and mobile platforms from architecture through deployment. Your tasks will include building core features such as booking flows, user dashboards, calendars, and secure authentication; integrating third-party APIs (e.g., Stripe, messaging services); ensuring scalability, performance, and GDPR compliance; and exploring AI solutions for automation and personalised user experiences. You’ll shape the product roadmap, iterating strategically based on user feedback to build a platform that's not just fast—but smart, purposeful, and intuitive.

You’ll join as a true co-founder at the build stage, bringing the product vision to life from the ground up based on a fully developed business and launch plan.

We offer full co-founder status, strategic influence, ownership, and decision-making power. Equity typically starts around 8%, with clear opportunities to increase based on performance, contribution, and role scope. Vesting follows a standard 4-year schedule with a 12-month cliff, and milestones will be collaboratively defined based on mutual alignment.

The concept is validated, the roadmap is in place, and the first year’s capital and operational costs are covered, allowing you to focus on building instead of bootstrapping. This is a ground-floor opportunity in a high-potential niche market, offering a clear path to profitability within 18–24 months, and the chance to build something that meaningfully improves everyday family life.

Empowering families to thrive — less stress, more joy, and seamless access to enriching experiences, all in one beautifully curated space.

We’re building a beautifully designed, human-centred platform that empowers families to effortlessly discover, book, and enjoy enriching activities, experiences, and services—all in one trusted place. By simplifying everyday decisions, we ease parents’ mental load, save precious time, and unlock a world filled with joy, connection, and growth for curious children and mindful caregivers.

Herausforderungen

As we move toward launch, key challenges include securing aligned co-founding partners, driving early traction with high-quality activity providers, and ensuring robust technical execution from day one. Preserving platform integrity, user trust, and exceptional experience as we scale will be essential for sustainable growth.
