Ahh, midwest changes the equation for sure. Maybe try disclosing a salary _range_ in the description? Without knowing the details of the job, it's hard to tell if there's something in the description driving interest away. If it's exactly like cairo140's job, it may be simply too much for a single person. Here's what he/she was asking for, and I'll take a stab at breaking it down into the fewest mere-mortal-sized job reqs that I can: Role 1:
top to bottom web app security,
server ops,
zero downtime rollouts,
performance and architecture (shared) Role 2:
metrics/instrumentation,
fully-independent backend,
HTML/CSS/JS skills,
integrating third-party modules,
performance and architecture (shared) Role 3:
managing technical vendor relationships,
work the indirectly technical parts,
technical hiring,
capacity planning,
expectations management,
performance and architecture (shared) These are still three pretty loaded-up people! Even if there was one person capable of and willing to do this all, their current job title is likely "founder of their own startup". |
I'm doing a decent chunk of that, aware of the parts I'm doing shitty, and that is my job title. :)
I was talking recruiting with a mentor. He said some of his best hires were founders he met at startup events looking to regroup and earn a paycheck after the failure of their own startup. Dark—but insightful.
