I certainly tried to find a CTO before building a product - it's nearly impossible these days if you don't have funding, especially if you're founding your first startup.

So, I raised a small FAF round and outsourced my MVP to two awesome dev shops. Now I'm raising a second round of funding and can afford to bring on someone full-time. It's definitely not ideal, but it was the only way I could do it. I'm hoping the idea, the flexibility of the job, and the above average equity piece are intriguing to a potential CTO. Would be interested to hear suggestions on how to make this more attractive?
