As someone starting a hardware company with amazing software as part of the experience, I am battling the same problem(s).

I want to hire creatives who don't need to be delegated to, and can own full cycle of tasks on their own. I have been doing tons of research in the last two months and a lot of soul searching trying to figure out precisely what makes me tick.

The truth is, every startup WANTS to hire entrepreneurial developers, but rarely let them be entrepreneurs.

In going through this process on my own, for the second time, it is clear that if I want to hire people like me, I have to treat them like I treat myself.

Trust them, give them freedom, and be willing to ask for help when necessary.
