======Position=======

Co-founder CTO to collaborate with us and build out our existing prototype of the online platform described below. We are looking first for general competency and energy, a deeply inquisitive nature, and an appetite for the risk and rewards of start-ups. We are looking second for experience in full-stack development and knowledge of a range of frontend and backend technologies. We are open to various arrangements, including covering your living expenses for a trial period while all parties work toward progress on website development and determining partnership feasibility.

======Company=======

We are building a website that anyone, anywhere can use to conduct and participate in randomized experiments about simple life choices. We will capture the same curiosity, desire for answers, and need to connect that makes Q&A, social media, and wiki websites successful. We will do this by facilitating the free exchange of experiment design, participation, conversation, and results. Users will benefit from instant data analysis and highly simplified experiment execution through mobile apps that maximize participation.
