As the first engineer at a successful startup.
Responsibilities-
* Take over everything technical I was good at and hired for.
* Take over policy and progress on everything I was good at.
* Be on call 24/7.
* Do whatever the CEO/CIO didn't want to do.
Think this is pretty standard from my reading of other startups. The one lesson I should have learned and didn't
is that as first engineer you should get 10% or more equity if you stay > 5 years.
