# Founding Chief Technology Officer (CTO) **A.C.E** · Remote · `Remote` 🕒 **Статус:** *Опубликовано: 3 дня назад* · *Источник: Indeed* --- ### About the Role Founding Chief Technology Officer (CTO) A.C.E. Platform | Fully Remote | Founding Executive Opportunity Build the Technology Behind a Membership-Powered Movement A.C.E. is seeking a Founding Chief Technology Officer to help take an already developing platform through launch, stabilization, growth, and ultimately scale. A.C.E. is: Membership Powered. Impact Focused. Faith Rooted. Community Driven. We are building a platform designed to bring people, ideas, resources, opportunities, businesses, organizations, and communities together in ways that create measurable growth and meaningful impact. A.C.E. is openly Christian in the values and principles behind the organization, but membership and employment are not limited by faith. We are intentionally building a welcoming platform for people from different backgrounds who believe in growth, opportunity, connection, purpose, and making a difference. This is not an idea sitting on a whiteboard. The A.C.E. website is functional. The membership platform has been established. Core systems including membership functionality, referrals, points and rewards have already been developed, and backend development is actively underway. Now we are looking for the person who can help take what has been built and get it fully across the finish line. THE IMMEDIATE MISSION The first responsibility of the Founding CTO is straightforward: Get A.C.E. technically ready to launch, accept members, process activity reliably, and support growth. At this stage, we need someone who is willing to be highly hands-on. That means reviewing what already exists, identifying what remains unfinished, solving technical problems, improving systems where necessary, connecting pieces that need to work together, and helping make sure the platform is secure, stable and launch-ready. As A.C.E. grows, this role is expected to evolve from hands-on technical execution into full executive leadership of the company’s technology operations. WHAT YOU’LL OWN Responsibilities may include: · Reviewing the existing A.C.E. platform, website, backend architecture and supporting systems · Completing and improving launch-critical development · Ensuring membership registration and account functionality operate properly · Managing and improving referral, points, rewards and engagement systems · Supporting payment processing and membership-related integrations · Managing APIs, databases, hosting, cloud infrastructure and deployment · Troubleshooting technical issues and solving problems directly · Evaluating scalability, performance and reliability · Establishing security, privacy, backup and recovery standards · Identifying technical risks before they become business problems · Supporting development of future web and mobile applications · Creating a practical technology roadmap based on A.C.E.’s growth · Evaluating and selecting vendors, platforms and technical partners · Working directly with the Founder & CEO on product development and priorities · Supporting analytics and data infrastructure as membership grows · Eventually recruiting and managing developers, engineers, contractors and technology partners · Building the technology department you will ultimately lead THE PERSON WE’RE LOOKING FOR We are not looking for someone whose primary goal is simply obtaining a C-suite title. We need a builder. Someone who can look at an objective, assess what already exists, identify what is missing, and move the project forward. The ideal candidate is entrepreneurial, technically capable, resourceful, comfortable with ambiguity, and willing to work directly inside the technology before eventually leading others. Experience may include: · Full-stack development · Web applications · Mobile applications · Backend systems · APIs and integrations · Databases · Cloud infrastructure · Membership or subscription platforms · Payment systems · Cybersecurity · SaaS or marketplace platforms · Startup or early-stage technology environments You do not need to personally be the strongest engineer in every possible discipline. You do need enough technical depth to understand the systems, make sound decisions, diagnose problems, build where necessary, and know when specialized expertise should be brought in. FOUNDING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION This is a founding executive opportunity designed for someone who wants to help build A.C.E. during its launch stage and grow into a long-term C-suite leadership position as the platform scales. A.C.E. is intentionally being built through membership growth and internally generated revenue rather than outside investment. Compensation for this role is designed to increase progressively as defined launch, performance, membership, revenue and profitability milestones are achieved. Rather than requiring the selected executive to wait until A.C.E. reaches full scale before compensation begins, the intention is to establish a staged compensation structure that allows earnings to begin incrementally as the company reaches agreed benchmarks. This creates a direct connection between execution, company growth and compensation. A strong candidate who helps move A.C.E. from development to launch quickly, stabilizes the platform, supports successful member acquisition and helps the company begin generating sustainable revenue may therefore reach paid compensation milestones sooner. Early-stage compensation may begin through agreed milestone-based payments, stipends, part-time executive compensation or other structured compensation arrangements as A.C.E. begins producing revenue. As additional milestones are achieved and the company continues to grow, compensation may increase in stages until the role transitions into a fully compensated executive position. The target range for this role is annual base compensation in the $100,000–$150,000+ range , based on responsibility, performance, company revenue, profitability and continued growth. The position remains flexible and results-driven during the early stages. There is no requirement to immediately leave existing employment or maintain traditional corporate hours while A.C.E. is developing and generating its initial revenue. We care about one thing above all: Getting the job done. For the right founding executive, performance-based equity participation may also be negotiated. Any equity would be limited, milestone-based and subject to vesting requirements tied to meaningful contribution and continued involvement. Specific milestones, compensation stages, payment triggers and any equity opportunity will be clearly established with the selected candidate so there is a transparent path from the founding stage to full executive compensation. Simply put: The faster A.C.E. reaches meaningful milestones, the sooner compensation can begin — and the faster the role can progress toward full executive compensation. WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT You are not stepping into an established technology department. You have the opportunity to build one. The person who joins A.C.E. as Founding CTO will have significant influence over how the platform develops, how its infrastructure is built, how technology decisions are made, and what the future technology organization eventually becomes. The immediate objective is launch. The long-term objective is scale. And the person who helps build that journey will have the opportunity to eventually lead it. TO APPLY Please submit a résumé, portfolio or LinkedIn profile along with a short introduction addressing: · What you have built, launched or scaled · Your strongest technical capabilities · Your experience taking products from development into production · How you approach inherited or partially completed technology · Why a founding-stage opportunity interests you · What you believe your first 90 days with A.C.E. should accomplish A.C.E.
