r/TechStartups

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a co-founder who is just as hungry for success as I am — someone who wants to build something meaningful, solve real problems, and create a successful business together.

A little about me: I have some experience building SaaS products, and now I'm looking to take things further by partnering with someone who shares a similar ambition and entrepreneurial mindset.

I'm not limiting myself to one industry or business idea. It could be a SaaS product, an AI startup, a marketplace, a consumer business, or something completely different. I'm open to exploring ideas, identifying opportunities, and figuring out what we can build together.

What I'm looking for

- Hunger to succeed: Someone ambitious who genuinely wants to build something of their own and is willing to put in consistent effort.

- Ideas and initiative: You don't need to have the perfect idea already, but I'd love someone who thinks creatively, spots opportunities, and brings ideas to the table.

- A builder's mindset: Someone who wants to turn conversations into action, test ideas, learn from failures, and keep improving.

- Open-mindedness: We should be able to challenge each other's thinking, debate ideas, and make decisions together.

- Long-term commitment: Someone interested in building a real business, not just chasing the excitement of starting something new.

What I'm offering

A genuine 50/50 co-founder partnership.

I'm looking for an equal partner, not an employee. I want us both to have a real stake in what we build, contribute our strengths, share responsibilities, and work toward a common goal.

We can start by getting to know each other, discussing our skills and interests, brainstorming opportunities, and validating ideas before deciding what to pursue.

You don't need to have everything figured out. What matters is that you're proactive, curious, ambitious, and serious about building something together.

I'm not expecting one person to do everything. I believe the right partnership is about bringing complementary skills, challenging each other to think bigger, and making progress together.

If this resonates with you, let's talk!

Send me a DM with a little about yourself:

- What are you currently working on, or what have you built before?

- What skills or experience would you bring to a partnership?

- What kinds of businesses or problems excite you?

- And most importantly, what motivates you to become a founder?

Even if you don't have a specific idea right now, feel free to reach out. Sometimes the best businesses start when two ambitious people connect and figure things out together.

Let's meet, exchange ideas, find an opportunity worth pursuing, and build something we're proud of.

HEY EVERYONE!!!

Okay, sorry, ik this is not a very good way to start something like this, but it's fun like no genuinely Anyways, back to what this post is actually about...

I'm working on a tech startup and looking for a few people who are genuinely interested in building things together, sharing ideas, and learning along the way.

I'm looking for people who enjoy technology and actually want to work on real products instead of just discussing ideas forever. The startup is still at an early stage, so there's plenty to figure out, experiment with, and build.

Here's what I'm mainly looking for:

• Frontend / Web Development: People who work with React, Next.js, TypeScript, or other modern web technologies and enjoy building usable, well-designed applications.
• Backend Development: People interested in APIs, databases, authentication, server-side development, and the infrastructure that makes applications work.
• UI/UX Design: Designers who care about usability, visual details, consistency, and making software feel polished. Figma experience is a plus.
• AI / ML: People interested in LLMs, AI integrations, AI agents, automation, machine learning, and experimenting with new technologies.
• Product & Research: People who enjoy researching technologies, exploring ideas, evaluating possibilities, testing things, and helping make product decisions.

You don't have to fit perfectly into one category. If you work across multiple areas or have other skills that could be useful in a tech startup, I'd be happy to hear from you.

A little about me:

I'm a self-taught developer and UI/UX designer, and I spend a lot of time exploring AI tools, technologies, and ways to build better products. I'm currently learning machine learning and other technical concepts as well.

I'm not going to pretend I'm some super-experienced founder or developer who has everything figured out. I'm still learning too, but I'm ambitious, enjoy building things, and want to turn ideas into actual products rather than leave them as concepts.

I care about both the technical side of software and the experience people have when using it. I like exploring how things work, experimenting with different approaches, and figuring out how to make products better.

Who would be a good fit?

I'd rather work with someone who's curious, takes initiative, communicates properly, and genuinely wants to build something than someone with an impressive résumé who isn't interested in doing the work.

You don't need years of experience or to be an expert. Self-taught developers, students, beginners, and people who are still improving their skills are welcome. What's important is that you have something to contribute, are willing to learn, and can follow through on what you take on.

I'm hoping to find people who can exchange ideas, discuss technical decisions, challenge each other's thinking, and help turn plans into working software.

I'm also looking for people who can help me think through decisions and share the workload. Handling development, design, research, planning, and everything else alone gets difficult, and I'd genuinely like to have people to build with rather than figure everything out by myself.

One important thing about payment:

I want to be completely transparent about this. The startup is at an early stage, and I can't offer payment right now. This would be voluntary collaboration, with no guaranteed future compensation.

If the project grows and there's a realistic opportunity to compensate contributors, we can discuss it then, but I can't promise a timeline or guarantee that it'll happen. I completely understand if unpaid work isn't suitable for you, and I don't want anyone joining under the wrong expectations.

I'm not expecting anyone to sacrifice their studies, job, or personal life for this, either. A realistic commitment, consistent communication, and genuine interest matter more than making huge promises.

The goal is to find people who want to build, learn, exchange ideas, and create software they're proud of together.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to comment or DM me with a little about yourself, your technical skills or interests, what you've worked on so far, and what you'd like to contribute.

Would love to meet some fellow builders and see what we can create together!
