Seeking CEO+team for VC-backed startup: Make America Functional Again

David Teten

I do not require an NDA, assuming you have relevant qualifications. We agree on an equity split, vesting, and initial compensation structure. We agree that upon raising capital, each team member will earn $X, perhaps with an automatic bump to $Y upon achieving agreed-upon milestones. And how do you split the equity?

Should I require and NDA? Ideally you can pay them based + equity so that you’ll get their attention and focus on the project. There’s no formula however I do know … the more you build before you need to hire / partner, the more equity you can keep. If you need working capital then talk to a bank. Then launch.
