Looking for a CTO

Posted by alpbahadur on Friday November 06, 2026 @12:01PM
from the self-post dept.

I quit my Head of Quant Research job last friday to go full-time on a startup. I built complex stuff before. I am good with sales and networking. I want to offload the CTO part to someone else while I can raise and sell and work on GTM.

I am mainly working on agentic software for business (grokbot) and fin-agents (rolo)

Wait, don't you already have a CTO by using one of the frontier models (if you do?) Hence the same CTO as so many other startups. That's a CT0, not a CTO.

I am good with user interfaces that match use cases.

What do you need a CTO for specifically? What would you offload to the person? How much capital do you plan on raising, what's your vision etc. Provide more details.

Why not have AI fill the role of CTO?
