MUST READ NOTE FROM @crisbinjoseph:

Hey I m Crisbin Founder & CEO of Acowale

As I sat down to write this message I caught myself pausing rethinking the way forward. At first I considered offering a salary like any traditional hire for the role of CTO but something didn t sit right with me. I was all set to put a number down for the salary when it hit me this isn t just about hiring a person for a job. You see I m not just looking for a typical Chief Technology Officer. I realized that bringing someone on board shouldn t feel like filling a job. It s more than that it s about finding the right person who shares our vision and is ready to embark on a journey with us.

At Acowale we re not just building another company. We re creating an ecosystem a series of products that will reshape how consumers businesses and vendors interact. I m convinced we re on the verge of making something useful for mankind something that could disrupt the SaaS world in ways we haven t yet imagined. And I need someone who feels this deeply. Someone who s not just excited about the technology but about the dream the journey and the impact we re going to have.

To me finding the right CTO feels a lot like finding the right partner in life. This isn t about a job title; this is about cofounding something that matters. The person I m looking for will be a cocreator not just an executive. And that s why this position isn t just a job offer it s a chance to be part of something from the ground up. It doesnt matter if youre not good with people or is an introvert or extrovert it only matters if you align with our vision and good at coding!

Initially the role will be based on sweat equity (youll have to invest only your brain not cash) not a paycheck. But as we move beyond our current bootstrapped phase (and we re already in talks with angel investors) that will change. You ll have a stake in Acowale CoFounder & CTO position a true partnershipfriendship in every sense of the word. For now this is a call to those who aren t afraid to take risks who are willing to push through challenges and who are ready to be a part of this startup adventure.

This isn t for everyone. But for the right person it could be everything. This has to be someone who believes in what we re doing just as much as I do someone who wants to be on this journey not just for the ride but for the destination we re aiming for. It s not just about skills it s about vision trust and shared ambition.

So if youre someone ready to take on real challenges not just as a CTO but as a cofounder this might be the opportunity that s been waiting for you. It s a sweet spot for the right person someone who s ready to shape the future with us not just watch it happen.
