The Position: CEO of a profitable software-as-a-service email company

Are you a highly skilled techie and entrepreneur hungry to lead and grow a successful company? Think you've got what it takes to be a Steve Jobs, Larry Page, or Sergey Brin? If you're a developer with a successful entrepreneurial background paired with strategic vision and the ability to execute it, you might be exactly the person I need.

My name's Ajay. I'm the current CEO of JangoMail, and I'm looking for someone who can do this job better than I can. JangoMail is a web-based email marketing platform with over 4,000 customers worldwide. We've been in the email marketing business for almost 10 years, and have two services: JangoMail and JangoSMTP. The company is growing, profitable, and has a great future ahead of it with the right leadership. I've taken the company this far, and I think someone else can take the company further.

It's time for me, the founder of JangoMail, to find a Chief Executive Officer who will drive my company forward and steer its future success. As you can imagine, finding the right person is a tall order. I'm looking for someone with great vision, lots of energy, and fantastic leadership skills, a tech background and experience running a business, and a personality that matches my company's culture. Basically I want Mark Zuckerberg's clone. If you're that person, keep reading.

What I'm looking for:

The ideal candidate is similar to me in many ways but different - and better! - in others. A quick summary of the similarities: you need to have both an entrepreneurial and tech background, understand how to run a small business, and have a blazing desire to succeed. What I need from someone else is vision: you need to be the leader and driver of JangoMail's new phase, and have the foresight, energy, and passion to take the company to the next level of growth.

Here are some of the particular skills and experiences I'm looking for. You should:
1. Have run a software company in the past, preferably software-as-a-service (SaaS).
2. Have been a lead developer on a big software project at one point.
3. Have skills in most areas of running a small software company. This includes motivating and managing team members, recruiting and HR, accounting, online marketing like AdWords/SEO, negotiating, developing and maintaining strong client relationships, and so on.

Here are some less tangible requirements. You need to:
1. Be knowledgeable and passionate about all things software and tech.
2. Be able to conceive and execute a plan for how you'd take JangoMail forward.
3. Be liked by me and the other team members.

This position is a great opportunity for an energetic, driven techie who has skills beyond software development. If hired, you would inherit a profitable company with an amazing team and no big problems to start. If you have the skills and hunger of a great CEO and software developer, the strategic vision to fuel our product growth and our company growth, and the leadership skills to coordinate and guide a unique and highly independent team, this is the opportunity for you.

What your first three months might look like:
First 30 days: Immersion in product and company structure and culture.
You would spend your first month getting to know our products inside and out and learning the overall architecture and codebase that comprises the products. You would also get to know our two developers and our Director of Operations, and learn about the company's operations at a high level, from accounting functions to marketing functions.

Second 30 days: Growth plan and vision.
Working with input from me, you would spend your second month developing a plan for the future. This should be a flexible but comprehensive roadmap, identifying things like what people need to be hired, what new features should be implemented, and what partnerships we should pursue.

Third 30 days: Put the plan in action.
In the third month, I anticipate handing off control to you. You would begin implementing the plans that have been made so far. I would still provide some consultation and feedback, but this would mark the beginning of your tenure as top decision-maker.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: If you're looking for a new CEO, what role will you transition into?
A: I'm not sure yet, but I'll still have involvement in the company. I anticipate that I may stay around in a technical capacity, developing and improving the product, or I might focus on blogging for the company or establishing partnerships. Whatever my role turns out to be, it will be up to you to steer and grow the company.

Q: What will the compensation structure look like?
A: This position will be highly compensated, with a six figure base salary plus a percentage of profits.

Q: Where will the CEO work?
A: From home. We are a virtual company with a small office in Dayton, Ohio. I (the current CEO) live in Chicago, but you can live wherever you want.

Q: If the CEO is remote, how will he/she work with his team?
A: Using remote communication technologies like phone, email, video chat, and IM. Our team is made up of highly motivated and highly independent individuals; it's very important that you're able to coordinate and manage a team like this.

Hi,

We're looking for someone who can build a few web crawlers for us that will data mine popular career sites for information about job posts or job seekers.

For example, we might want you to crawl the resumes section of a career site and pull out the name, email address, and phone number of all resumes with either name or phone number listed.
- In this example your tool would have to deal with challenges such as: name might not always be at the top of the resume, phone number could be in different formats - (555) 555-5555 or 555-555-5555 or 555.555.5555

Or, we might want you to crawl a national career site and pull out the company name, location and job title of all job posts in the state of California.
- In this example, your tool might need to deal with the challenge of posts not being all formatted in the same way

In both example, we'd need some solution that would prevent our IP address from being blocked as a result of doing these crawls.

Feel free to email with questions. Compensation is negotiable and we're open to an hourly or fixed job rate. Please keep in mind we want to use someone local as opposed to Elance for speed an accuracy's sake, but we can't pay exorbitant fees for this.

Thanks.
