Clients have already expressed interest and we intend to meet that need.  As such, we're looking for an experienced technology lead with deep expertise in developing interactive web applications.  However, specific domain experience is less important than being an intelligent individual who is a hardcore architect and coder, can ramp up on unfamiliar APIs/languages/etc. quickly, has the ability to understand software design methodologies, can communicate effectively/efficiently, can effectively structure and manage teams, and has a strong entrepreneurial drive. 

THE ROLE: 
Join us in developing a web based software as a service solution that is intended to change the face of the mental health space.  You will be heavily involved with every aspect of technical development, from requirement analysis, design, development, and peer testing through to deployment and the management of the production environment.

·         The work effort is expected to be part-time (2-3 hours per evening) over a 2.5 to 3 month period 

·         The position is EQUITY only, with significant equity stake going to the individual in this role.The expectation is that the applicant has a way to support themselves (usually a fulltime job) until we start generating revenue. 

*bear in mind that though this is equity an equity comp. gig the solution being commercialized is designed to be completed in a short timeframe and address a very discrete business problem-- this is NOT A PIE IN THE SKY, SOLVE EVERY PROBLEM SOLUTION thus the realistic expectation is that we will generate revenue within 3-5  mos.
