Hi,

I am software dev with strong experience in full stack web dev and devops. I have a broad set of skills as a tech guy with experience in multiple prog languages. I have mostly done web development(backend and frontend) and devops in 4.5 yrs of professional life.

I am currently looking to startup. I have some ideas I am trying to validate. But I am fine with something the other cofounder might have come up with. I am interested in connecting with both tech and nontech folks. I am based out of India, you can drop me a mail at hi[at]pcx[dot]io or DM me at https://twitter.com/pcx66 to get in touch.

I strongly believe cofounders should have known each other for a while already. But I am ready to be proven wrong.

Cheers

/pcx

Looking to monetize a suite of AWS Lambda functions. Licensing code to larger orgs, and as a service. More focus on algos with high CPU/IO ratio, but no problem with S3 file transforms etc. Just myself and a marketing/sales guy. Need a second technical cofounder with complementary interests. The Page to my Brin.

https://twitter.com/lambdamart Also have the LambdaMart.com domain purchased. If you need some AWS Lambda functions give us a holler. We can do C/C++/Haskell/Bash in addition to the officially supported SDKs. Skunkworks project on hot booting Ruby VMs so they don't twiddle for a few seconds parsing your script. Also a skunkworks project on using Lambdas as data stores for complex static data structures.

Not a co-founder, but certainly a web front-end programmer required:

Initially a short term paid project, but this has the potential to become a long-term project. It's never going to be a unicorn, though, so if unicorns are all you're interesting in, this isn't for you, except potentially to mark time and add to your portfolio.

But if you're interested in a small, paid project, feel free to contact me to chat about what might be done.

Not exactly looking for a cofounder, but I am working on few Tableau centric ideas. One that I will launch soon is a Tableau community to consolidate and curate content. Two maybe a Tableau service (a la wpcurve). I might be going against the trend here, but technically speaking I am good, what I need is people with connections/knowledge of the industry, especially for kicking off the community thing.

I'm interested in knowing more about your plans. I've got good connections in the industry and have also worked and taught Tableau. I've got a technical background but also studied business as well and have been doing customer development trying to build my own startup.

I'm looking for someone with good machine learning skills to build basically a marketing/customer interaction assistant for small businesses.

My background is both technical and business - did customer development, built the MVP and validating idea.

Not looking for a co-founder for a business idea, but a partner for a hobby project this summer. Someone who knows hardware. I can do the software/firmware. I want to build a simple internet enabled on/off toggle.

Preferably looking for someone in Southern California.

Yes - I am a technical founder, I have two products: One is a mass media monitoring startup, and the other is a deep learning startup that trades forex (ramen profitable) Both products are finished, and in production, but I have zero selling skills. I'm in London. Looking for someone to help me develop the products further.

Do you mind recommending which forex api you use? I've been interested in experimenting but it's hard to make the jump.

Product: AppHunt http://apphunt.livae.com It helps android early adopters to find new apps and also it helps developers to promote their apps. It has been developed for more than a year and shows good traction.

I am looking a couple of co-founders:

- Someone with experience in iOS to build the same thing for iPhones (backend already supports more than one platform)

- Front end/Back end developer to help me to create the B2B business: a payment platform and an adv network

About me: CS engineer, PhD in AI, MBA, 3 years android developer in startups, 1 year data scientist
