I normally wouldn't comment, but expecting someone with that skillset and those kind of opportunities available to them to work for free for 4-6 months with the promise of actual pay "when our seed round closes" was so egregious I couldn't help myself, sorry.

That's common for founders, though. The CEO and CTO etc. are almost certainly in the same boat. They're not so much saying "come work for free" as "come join this group of us who are taking a leap from our current jobs and building something brand new, in hopes it'll pay off wildly."
