Impactis Global
Overview
Co-Founder & CTO — SF Bay Area, Seattle or Bengaluru | Hybrid with regular meet ups About Impactis
Impactis has validated product market fit, building a
platform and talent marketplace
to support
1M promising students each year
with scholarship funding, mentorship, and professional networks — powered by scholarship-giving professionals and companies. Our product enables individuals and organizations to: Create personalized, interactive scholarships in minutes.
Volunteer through mentorship, awareness sessions, projects, mock interviews, and internships to discover job-ready profiles with evidence of skills and temperament.
Form communities of professionals aligned by cause, alma mater, or company.
Impactis is being built as a sustainable, self-funded business with angel, mission-driven, and patient capital. VC funding is optional, not a default. Our goal is to
build an enduring institution, not to sell quickly. Why now?
Early validation with
paying users, corporate pilots
(Salesforce, Standard Chartered++) , and positive coverage (Economic Times, Founders Story++)
Infrastructure designed for
global scalability
(multi-currency, multi-country, multi-lingual, engagement platform, payments, accounting & transparency rails).
Corporate demand for
employee volunteering + co-funded scholarships
already in pilot.
We’re looking for a
second-time builder
— someone who has shipped and scaled a consumer or marketplace product before, and is ready for a
second run with more ownership. Your Role
As Founding CTO & Co-founder , you will: Own
architecture, security, and tech roadmap
from v1 → scale.
Direct and orchestrate engineering efforts, including managing hires, interns, and leveraging AI tools.
Partner with the CEO and
Business Co-founder
on
product strategy, growth, and capital allocation .
Build a lean, high-ownership team and culture.
About You
Strong
full-stack experience
(React, Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, AWS).
Track record of
building & scaling
a consumer-facing product.
Appetite for ambiguity and
bias to ship .
Evidence of pursuing hard things relentlessly.
Builder-first mindset, with the imagination and drive to
build an institution, not just an app .
Getting Started
Begin with
20–30% commitment
in the first 1–2 months (equity-compensated for time value).
Transition to full-time after mutual alignment.
Bring$25-50K as skin-in-the-game capital for shared success.
Be financially self-sufficient for ~12 months until salaries kick in from revenue or sustainable funding.
Equity & Structure
15% minimum equity , flexible upward to ~40% based on milestones, scope, and capital contribution.
4-year vesting with 1-year cliff.
Part-time months accrue pro-rata vesting.
Why Join?
Compelling Mission: Make talent development the new social network — a trusted, transparent way for millions to become better while changing lives.
Timing : Early traction + validated model = right moment to shape product, culture, and ownership.
Ownership: True co-founder role, not a hired gun — with significant equity, voice, and upside.
Balanced Team: You’ll join alongside a Business Co-founder (to be jointly onboarded, focused on growth, partnerships & fundraising) and the CEO for Product and Operations — creating a balanced founding team.
Flexibility: Hybrid + autonomy, but with the accountability of in-person meetups and aligned incentives.
