Tech Advisor to Unusual Social Venture Startup

This position is for an unusual Social Venture Internet Startup  
which will be using a robust conceptual advance web application to  
help the 95% of unhappy marriages/ couples in general in the Western  
Hemisphere who cannot afford or will not trust a marriage therapist,  
to help save (if savable), ensure, and deepen their marriages/  
committed relationships (we are talking a potential market about  
60-70MM couples) we would be pioneering with our approach).

Our need now is for someone who is a senior level developer/programmer  
to be able to vet one to three of the best web application ROR  
developers we have finally found in Medellin, Colombia.  
I, the ceo/founder will be working with the chosen team daily to  
ensure maximum efficiency.  
In case you have a yearning yourself for adventure and to make not  
only possibly lots of money but a huge difference in the world in  
terms of preventing oceans of suffering (ever gone through a tough  
divorce?), Medellin, btw, is now one of the safest cities in the  
world, with constant spring temperatures. Bogota as well is very safe  
and bigger than NYC.) All the programmers read English fluently, and  
in our case speak almost fluently, as well.

BTW, anyone who has gone through a tough divorce (or whose parents  
divorced at a tender age, will probably find this enormously  
fascinating and gratifying—an opportunity to turn your lemons into  
lemonade.

After this vetting, we ideally hope, if you are excited about our  
potential and yours with us,that you will want to stay on up to two  
hours a week (of course the more you can devote the better if you are  
interested in any other challenges) to at least QA the code quality  
and make sure it is being dumped at least weekly.

WHAT WE HAVE GOING FOR US: A lot. Once we hear from you, we will send  
detailed backgrounders.

COMPENSATION: would be negotiable, depend on whether you were only  
helping us a few hours with the initial vetting (choosing of the right  
team) of if you could continue for 2-3 months QAing the code dump, and  
whatever else we agree on, and this could also lead to a highly  
responsible high up position once we are funded, potentially CTO or  
whatever, depending also on preferences of the lead developer

TO APPLY: PLEASE email me at removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid to make initial  
contact, and send us your resume. Also indicate your preferred method  
of having applicants demo their sample applicaitons (ie webex? or  
alternative method?) After this we will  
Send you detailed backgrounders on who we are and what we have going  
for us.

Please also indicate your skype contact info, for follow up phone  
conversation, unless you prefer chat, in which case your chat contact  
info (preferably google), since I am in Colombia now, though my  
partner and VP of Product Development/Project Manager is in NYC, and I  
myself, hopefully can return to Bay area once beta is finished, to  
pitch investors
