Equity CTO for Emirati Cybersecurity SaaS
Budget: $25 – $50 USD
I’m setting up a government-supported cybersecurity SaaS that serves Emirati organisations through the MZN x Hub71 Programme. The vision is to release an MVP that focuses first on automated threat detection and user-facing awareness dashboards, then iterate toward fuller capabilities such as data encryption and advanced authentication.
I’m offering true co-founder equity rather than a contractor fee, so I need a senior expert who can own the entire technical stack from Day 1, move fast, and help shape product-market fit. You’ll choose the architecture, assemble the initial codebase, and have freedom over tools—whether that’s AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, Python, Go, or whatever you believe will let us ship reliably and scale inside the UAE.
The immediate goal is to ship an investor-ready MVP as soon as possible. Once in market, we’ll leverage the Hub71 network for pilots and seed funding, so your work will be on display from day one.
Deliverables (MVP phase)
• End-to-end platform blueprint and tech stack decision
• Core threat-detection engine with real-time alerting
• Awareness dashboard (web) ready for live demos
• Secure cloud deployment and hand-off documentation
If you’ve already led a security product from zero to production, know how to pass compliance audits, and can start right away, I’d love to talk.
