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.

Think you're the one? To apply, email your application to CEO-search at us.jangomail.com (Replace at with an @ sign.) Send your cover letter in the body of the email message, and attach your resume in .rtf format (Rich Text Format). I love detail - the more detail you convey about yourself in your cover letter, the better! I want to know more than just your employment history; I want to get a feel for who you are as a person and what kind of executive you'd be for my company. I also invite you to submit anything you think represents who you are and why you're the CEO I need. That might be a code sample, a list of URLs, design work, an essay describing your leadership style and history, and so on. If you consider it important and valuable to my decision, I encourage you to include it in your application.

Wanted: A variation of the MVC Music Store (http://mvcmusicstore.codeplex.com/) where the customer object is subclassed from the Google GData Contact object (using Google Data API .net library - http://code.google.com/p/google-gdata/).

The goal is a demonstration of how an ASP.NET MVC3 project can be 'scaffolded up' so that objects like the database schema, unit and persistence tests, basic CRUD models and views can all be generated by MVCScaffolding and Entity Framework. The project will provide a foundation for future development so it needs to implement 'best practices' of a modern ASP.NET MVC3 as generally represented by MVC Music Store.

The code and any commentary produced in the course of this project remains your property - you can leverage it however, where ever you like. My goal is to gain a better understanding of the scaffolding process and a solid implementation of a user management sub-system based on the GMail Contacts object model. Ideally this project forms the basis for additional work with same provider into the future.

if you meet the following profile:

>>> you are a software developer;
>>> you know how to (or are willing to learn) program in the Python language, use the web2py framework, develop/create graphical user interfaces, work with trade/auction platforms, and other related skills;
>>> your attitude/outlook can be described as: you have a passion for alternative economic systems; you would enjoy studying trade/barter/exchange systems, you believe in "economic justice"; you are "libertarian free-market/free-trade" oriented; you want to make a tangible difference in the betterment of society; you want to do something about the thousands of "occupy wallstreet" unemployed folks by creating a platform for new employment avenues and would not mind having the chance of making a lot of money while you are at it...
>>> you are able to invest a minimum of 12 -- 16 hours per week consistently through at least June 2012;

This is a patent-pending, digital value-exchange ("barter") platform that can dramatically improve our economy - - - maybe even change the world. I believe this will be a profitable venture for all involved. Compensation through at least that period will NOT be cash based, but would be rather in the form of deferred compensation, and some beneficial equity interest in the venture. There is no guarantee of payment if the venture isn't successful; this should be seen as an investment of time/skills not just as "a job" (not to mention a great resume builder). If you meet the described profile and if you are interested in participating then feel free to contact me at "developers omniavx com"
