Funding for entrepreneurial hackers
on Aug 4, 2012 | hide
500friends, backed by Crosslink, Intel, and YCombinator ($6M to date), is looking for generalist hackers with entrepreneurial ambitions to join our team. In addition to the typical startup promises of personal growth, competitive compensation, equity, and free meals, we’ll help you launch your next company.

What exactly does this mean?!

Upon two years of employment at 500friends, we will provide $25-50k seed capital based on standard performance evaluations. In addition to the funding, we will help with various other aspects that starting a startup entails: brainstorming, crafting first decks, securing investor introductions, etc.

This could be the perfect opportunity for someone who isn’t quite ready to become a “founder” just yet and wants to learn the ropes while building an exciting company alongside a team of industry veterans and experts. Or maybe you're having second doubts about that photo sharing app...

Apply at jobs(at)500friends.com.

Hackers only please - we respect lawyers/bankers interested in "biz dev roles," but you unfortunately don't qualify.
