Looking for a Tech/Product Co-Founder for SkillSwipe 20% Equity or Monthly Stipend Option

Job ID: 39929706

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I’m building SkillSwipe — an AI-powered peer-to-peer learning platform where learners instantly connect, swap, and monetize skills through tokens and subscriptions.
Think of it as the “Tinder for Skills,” merging the accessibility of social swiping with the professional growth ethos of LinkedIn — designed for emerging markets.

We’ve already validated our MVP on Bubble (5–7 functional peer swaps, verified product stickiness, and early monetization signals).
Now, we’re entering the growth phase — preparing for funding to onboard 1,000+ verified mentors across universities in India and LATAM.

What I’m Looking For

I’m seeking a Tech/Product Co-Founder (not just a contractor) who can:

Lead the technical rebuild (transition Bubble MVP → scalable full-stack or native app)

Design and scale our AI-driven mentor matching & recommendation system

Collaborate on fundraising, product strategy, and GTM execution

Compensation Options

I’m flexible, depending on mutual trust and commitment:

Equity-Based Model:
Up to 20% equity, vesting over 3 years (with a 6-month cliff).
Ideal for someone who wants to grow into a long-term co-founder role.

Paid/Hybrid Model:
Option to work on a monthly stipend or milestone-based pay, with potential to convert into equity as partnership trust builds.

Ideal Background

Experience in startups, EdTech, AI, or marketplaces

Strong Software Engineer / Full-Stack / ML / Product background

Prior exposure to building scalable web or mobile products

Entrepreneurial mindset — driven by ownership, not just deliverables

Why Join SkillSwipe

Proven validated product, not an idea-stage risk

Large, high-growth TAM: emerging markets in India + LATAM

Immediate traction plan: onboarding 1,000 verified mentors → 30,000+ paying learners

Transparent co-founder dynamics & structured equity vesting

Opportunity to shape the core tech, AI layer, and product DNA of a next-gen learning ecosystem
