Founding Engineer at My Data Value
Join a ramen-profitable startup that's already hitting $300k ARR and disrupting the short-term rental market.

With a 3.5% equity pool for the first two hires and a proven product with near-zero churn, this is a rare chance to secure a founding seat in a company with legitimate traction and technical depth.
