Non tech founder looking to create a straight forward code test.

It is unlikely that you'll be able to administer a test like this effectively. A test with difficult enough problems is about the WAY you think, not the ansewer you end up with. That even disregards programming tests as a decent measure of competence. This also disregards the fact that ajax is a part of JavaScript and not a language.

Your best bet is to find a consultant you trust and pay them to find a few competent candidates, or find a technical partner

Start by putting your email in your profile ;-) -- Where are you located? I'd guess that somebody local will be best for you.
