About the Opportunity

TheLastSeat, an European event ticketing platform, is launching an exciting new venture to deliver innovative solutions for event organizers. We're seeking a hands-on Co-Founder & CTO to take full ownership of building a groundbreaking product from the ground up. This isn't just a technical role, it's a chance to co-found a company with the backing of an established brand, shaping its future from day one.

In this role, you'll be the sole technical force at the start, co-designing and developing the entire product using .NET.

If you're ready to roll up your sleeves and build something big, this is your shot.

What You'll Do

As the Co-Founder & CTO, you will:

• Co-Design and Build the Product from Scratch: Collaborate with the leadership team to design and develop a scalable software solution using .NET, taking it from concept to reality.
• Own the Technical Vision: Define the architecture, technology stack, and roadmap for a product that will innovate how event organizers operate.
• Work in an Agile Environment: Use Agile methodologies to plan, track, and execute the project, ensuring every milestone is met with precision.
• Work Independently: Operate remotely with full autonomy, relying on your self-motivation and organizational skills to deliver results.
• Collaborate with TheLastSeat: Partner with our leadership team to align the product with our broader mission and leverage our industry expertise.

Who We're Looking For

We need someone exceptional who:

• Has a strong technical background with hands-on experience building scalable software solutions using .NET.
• Is experienced in Agile methodologies, capable of managing complex projects independently and keeping everything on track.
• Is self-motivated and organized, with a proven ability to work remotely without supervision and still deliver high-quality outcomes.
• Speaks fluent English, enabling clear communication with the TheLastSeat team and potential future stakeholders.
• Brings an entrepreneurial mindset, eager to co-found a venture and take ownership of its success.
• Ideally, has experience in the events industry. A plus, but not required.
