Yes - I am a technical founder, I have two products: One is a mass media monitoring startup, and the other is a deep learning startup that trades forex (ramen profitable)<p>Both products are finished, and in production, but I have zero selling skills.<p>I&#x27;m in London. Looking for someone to help me develop the products further.

Not exactly looking for a cofounder, but I am working on few Tableau centric ideas. One that I will launch soon is a Tableau community to consolidate and curate content. Two maybe a Tableau service (a la wpcurve). I might be going against the trend here, but technically speaking I am good, what I need is people with connections&#x2F;knowledge of the industry, especially for kicking off the community thing.

Literally everyone I know in real life who has <i>an app idea</i>.<p>They are looking for a technical co-founder, full-stack developer which can implement their ideas into reality! They&#x27;ll do the brainstorming &quot;<i>Hey, why don&#x27;t we add a Like button?</i>&quot; as long as someone else handles the implementation, with all the nasty details.<p>UPDATE: @cnkk beat me into it! :-)

Hi,<p>I am software dev with strong experience in full stack web dev and devops. I have a broad set of skills as a tech guy with experience in multiple prog languages. I have mostly done web development(backend and frontend) and devops in 4.5 yrs of professional life.<p>I am currently looking to startup. I have some ideas I am trying to validate. But I am fine with something the other cofounder might have come up with. I am interested in connecting with both tech and nontech folks. I am based out of India, you can drop me a mail at hi[at]pcx[dot]io or DM me at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;pcx66" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;pcx66</a> to get in touch.<p>I strongly believe cofounders should have known each other for a while already. But I am ready to be proven wrong.<p>Cheers<p>&#x2F;pcx

Not looking for a co-founder for a business idea, but a partner for a hobby project this summer. Someone who knows hardware. I can do the software&#x2F;firmware. I want to build a simple internet enabled on&#x2F;off toggle.<p>Preferably looking for someone in Southern California.

Looking for a technical Co-Founder<p>The product is a simple SaaS solution, which is already (slightly profitable) up and running with really just a few paying customers. I have developed the MVP with a freelancer and lost him on the way, as he changed his focus and went back to a fulltime job.<p>The service itself is a multi-million $ business in US, with currently only two competitors in Europe. One competitor is massively pumped with VC, but is technically not able to deliver what clients are looking for. The other competitor is only operating in two countries. So there is more than enough space for a third player on that market. ;)<p>Needed skills:<p>- Javascript&#x2F;jQuery&#x2F;AngularJS &amp; Node.js<p>- Great communication skills both written and verbal<p>- experience with tracking &#x2F; web analytics would be a plus<p>If you are interested, but need some income from the first day, we can also talk about hourly &#x2F; project-based payment. Just ping me, if you are interested.

Looking to monetize a suite of AWS Lambda functions. Licensing code to larger orgs, and as a service. More focus on algos with high CPU&#x2F;IO ratio, but no problem with S3 file transforms etc.<p>Just myself and a marketing&#x2F;sales guy. Need a second technical cofounder with complementary interests. The Page to my Brin.

I am looking a technical co-founder to join me in a non-for-profit idea for a startup. I have technical skills, but it is not my strongest skill.<p>I want to do a CRM but for beneficiaries of social programs implemented by NGOs, Government, International Organizations or companies doing CSR. These organizations hardly do any monitoring of their programs, and this tool would help them achieve it by creating processes. This would allow them to follow-up a person and their indicators, to set-up reminders, and so on.<p>I would like to mix this with ML, in order to help them figure out which beneficiaries are more likely to benefit from their program (before enrolling them), and which one are more likely to drop-off their program.<p>My background: CS, work experience at povertyactionlab.org, and now accepted to an MPA at an Ivy League.

Only two people in the team right now - one dev, one b2b account exec - looking for anyone who gets exited about this and wants in. Gorka @ AquiGorka

Not a co-founder, but certainly a web front-end programmer required:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=11634804" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=11634804</a><p>Initially a short term paid project, but this has the potential to become a long-term project. It&#x27;s never going to be a unicorn, though, so if unicorns are all you&#x27;re interesting in, this isn&#x27;t for you, except potentially to mark time and add to your portfolio.<p>But if you&#x27;re interested in a small, paid project, feel free to contact me to chat about what might be done.

Looking for a software engineering cofounder.<p>I&#x27;m working on a project automating tasks around physical product development, and eventually leading into a SaaS&#x2F;platform with some intelligence to take advantage of new directions in digital manufacturing. I have a feature roadmap and connections to some early users for sales&#x2F;testing, but my background is not software engineering (MechE, manufacturing, and some EE&#x2F;embedded systems). Currently I&#x27;m evaluating freelancers to get an MVP built since I have a small amount of money to work with.

Been thinking about a knock off Amazon Alexa type device. Where you register names and it passes the query&#x2F;command off to a webs service. The management would be at a website.<p>So, you might say &quot;George, what time is it? and the device looks and see to pass &quot;what time is it&quot; to &quot;<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.myservice.com&#x2F;parse?q={text}&quot;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.myservice.com&#x2F;parse?q={text}&quot;</a> and the response is mapped back to the devices response.

I&#x27;m almost done building a &quot;bundle&quot; sales platform and secured two targeted domains, but I need a cofounder who is good at marketing and sales, as well as sourcing the products to include in bundles.<p>First site is employmentbundle.com, which will focus on eBooks and SaaS services to help job seekers. The other is entrepreneurbundle.com, which will focus on entrepreneurs and &quot;micro-preneurs&quot;.

There needs to be some sort of Tinder for co-founders. There&#x27;s so many people interested and so many terrible opportunities to scare people off.

I&#x27;m a UI&#x2F;UX designer with a &quot;strong&quot; technical background. I could team up with an excellent developer who needs help with design. ;)
