Job Overview - Founding Chief Technology Officer (CTO) | Technical Co-Founder

Company: Confidential
Location: Los Angeles, CA | Remote/Hybrid Considered
Compensation: Founder-Level Equity Participation | Compensation Structure Negotiable

Help Us Build the Future of Healthcare Technology

We are an early-stage technology venture focused on transforming how patients connect with healthcare providers through a modern, intelligent digital platform.

We're searching for an exceptional Founding CTO / Technical Co-Founder who wants more than another executive position. We're looking for a builder, innovator, and long-term partner who is ready to take ownership of a technology platform from the ground up.

This is an opportunity to shape the product, build the engineering foundation, and participate directly in the company's future growth through an equity-based ownership model.

What You'll Do

• Lead the technical vision, architecture, development, and launch of our platform.
• Design and build a scalable web and mobile platform.
• Develop an intuitive, high-performance experience for patients and healthcare providers.
• Evaluate and integrate AI, automation, matching algorithms, and intelligent workflows.
• Build secure backend infrastructure, APIs, databases, and cloud services.
• Establish security, privacy, and appropriate healthcare-data compliance practices.
• Recruit, mentor, and manage engineering talent as the company scales.
• Collaborate directly with executive leadership on product strategy, roadmap, and commercialization.
• Take full technical ownership of the platform from MVP through expansion.

Who We're Looking For

• An experienced software engineer, engineering leader, or technical founder with a proven history of building and launching digital products.
• Strong full-stack development and cloud architecture experience.
• Experience with marketplaces, SaaS platforms, or consumer-facing technology.
• Familiarity with AI integrations, API development, databases, and scalable infrastructure.
• Ability to independently develop an MVP and make sound technical decisions.
• Entrepreneurial mindset, strong execution skills, and a genuine interest in building a company.
• Healthcare technology experience is a plus, but not required.

Equity \& Ownership Opportunity

We believe the right technology leader should have a meaningful stake in the success of the business. Rather than offering a conventional executive compensation package, we are exploring a founder-level equity participation model that aligns long-term incentives, ownership, and performance.

The final structure will be negotiated based on experience, contribution, commitment, and the stage of the company.

This is a hands-on founding leadership opportunity with the potential to transition into a broader executive role as DocBid grows.

Why Us?

• Opportunity to build and shape a technology company at an early stage.
• Direct collaboration with experienced dental industry leadership.
• Significant influence over product direction and technical strategy.
• An opportunity to develop solutions for real problems within the dental industry.
• Long-term ownership potential tied to company growth.

Interested?

We're looking for someone who thinks like a founder, builds like an engineer, and leads with vision.

Send us a message with your LinkedIn profile, examples of platforms you've built, and a brief explanation of why you're interested in joining our team as a founding technology partner.

Let's build something extraordinary.

Pay: $247,850.00 - $500,000.00 per year

Application Question(s):

• Have you personally designed, developed, and launched a scalable web or mobile platform from the ground up? If yes, briefly describe the platform, your role, and the technologies used.
• We are a early-stage startup offering a founder-level equity ownership opportunity rather than a traditional executive salary package. Are you open to an equity-focused compensation structure, subject to mutually agreed terms and applicable employment laws?
• If selected as our Founding CTO, how would you approach building and launching an AI-enabled healthcare marketplace platform within the first 90–120 days? Please describe your technical strategy, development approach, and whether you would personally write code or require an engineering team.
