Job Description

🎯 Start Here

Your time is valuable. Consider investing it here.

⚠️ This is a 100% equity-based role for 2-3 months (until we launch) — then it becomes a normal/paid role in the indicated pay range.

This is NOT negotiable — if you need immediate pay, this isn’t for you.

⚠️ All candidates must sign an NDA and non-compete before all the details are shared.

If that’s a blocker, this opportunity isn’t for you.

🤝 Who We're Looking For

Figma Power User : Deep expertise in Figma for designing, prototyping, and collaborating — including components, auto-layout, interactive flows, and design systems.

We’re not desperate — we’re fully capable of building an MVP on our own... but we just posted an ad like this one and picked up 15 extremely talented engineers who each have 10-20 years experience...

We did not expect this much interest, and now we need help organizing and prioritizing the chaos.

This is a sprint, not a marathon. We expect to launch in about 2-3 months, and during these first few months, you can contribute part-time, full-time, or moonlight off-hours — whatever fits your life right now. If you’ve ever wanted to be part of a founding team — one that actually respects your time and contribution — read on.

🧠 Meet the Team

This isn’t a one-person show — we’re already stacked with talent across key functions, and building momentum fast. Here’s who’s already on board:

  • 10 developers split 50/50 between Pakistan & the US — lean, sharp, and shipping fast
  • 3 Product/General Managers with MBAs and experience running 7 figure P&Ls
  • Growth Hacker deploying agentic AI across channels
  • 4 Lawyers keeping us safe, scalable, and compliant
  • EAs, Admins, and Interns supporting ops and scale behind the scenes

…and more already in the pipeline.

This isn’t a pitch deck... it’s already moving:

  • yes — there’s already something real here. You can talk to people, feel the culture, and use the product.
  • no — you won't be the only person in the room, we already have several onboard.

💬 Real Talk

Most startups oversell, underdeliver, and dangle vague “cofounder” titles in exchange for years of underpaid work that rarely leads to anything meaningful.

That’s not this.

We’re not asking for a long-term commitment. We’re not selling hype.

You’ll know in just 2–3 months whether this is a rocket worth riding.

Work the hours you can work. Contribute. Earn.

Leave after a few weeks? Cool — you’ll still walk with real equity (not options).

📈 Example:

You log 40 hours at $100/hr = $4,000 SAFE.

Then we raise at a $5M valuation, and your time converts to 0.08% equity — just like an investor.

Work more, earn more... No vesting. No cliffs. No tricks.

💥 Why This One’s So Different

We’re not doing the lean startup dance.

We’re not tiptoeing to MVP, begging users, and praying for funding.

We’re building defense in depth before launch — because our space is social, viral, and highly visible. Fast followers are inevitable, so we’re going full throttle out of the gate. That means:

  • Build a team that can execute while the checks roll in — not after
  • Ship as many high-impact features as possible, as fast as possible
  • Raise capital before and during the launch
  • Deploy an AI-driven outreach engine, paired with an influencer-led launch event
  • Generate serious PR and make as much noise as possible
  • Launch with a real-time leaderboard, cash prizes, and bragging rights

And no — we don’t need the influencers. But we’re letting them in anyway.

Why? Because writing checks to the biggest voices makes it that much harder for anyone else to compete.

🔥 Why We’re Breaking the Rules

Not selling dreams here — just being real.

Yes, it’ll be harder than we think. It always is. But here’s why we’re not worried about traction:

  • Not the Founder's first rodeo. He's 45, 20+ years in VC-backed startups. Co-founded 6. Helped raise $MMs. Ex-CTO, CPO, COO, President. Built 30+ person teams. Managed multi-$M budgets.
  • Big names on deck. Think Gary Vee, Tony Robbins, Tim Ferriss, Mark Cuban, Barbara Corcoran, Grant Cardone, Pace Morby — 100M+ collective followers.
  • Major PR + influencer-led contests. We’re talking real visibility from day one.
  • Investors = users. That means every customer is a potential check-writer.
  • Social by design. Every user gets paid to spread the word.
  • Freemium model. No credit card required to get hooked.
  • Built on existing behavior. We’re not teaching people to fly — we’re just building a better runway.

💸 How You’re Compensated (and Why It’s Better Than Typical “Co-founder” Roles)

We use a SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) — just like YC startups, but instead of cash investment, your time gets converted into equity. No vesting schedules. No fuzzy promises. No “you’ll get 5% after we raise” BS.

🙄 Why this matters:

Most “cofounder” gigs offer phantom equity with zero transparency and a 4-year vesting schedule — and if things fizzle, you get nothing. That’s inauthentic. We’re different.

✅ After the sprint:

Once we launch and raise, you’ll have options:

  • Stay part-time and keep moonlighting
  • Go full-time and draw a salary
  • Switch to cash comp, keep stacking equity, or do a mix of both
  • No pressure — we’ll figure out what works for you based on fit and traction.

🚀 Bottom Line

This is real upside for real work, on your terms.

No lock-in. No BS.

If you want to continue, cool — you just secured a meaningful role at (hopefully) the best-funded startup in the world (while AI eats all the other jobs). If not, no hard feelings — and you still leave with a piece of something meaningful.

DM or email. Let’s talk.
