Founders

I just had an interview with a potential founding engineer. He asked for $750K a year in stablecoins and <0.5% equity. I can’t decide what bothers me more—the outrageous salary request or the lack of confidence in the company given the equity demand.

Crypto space?  

Finding an engineer without an ego can be difficult, but it’s worth the search.

Not even. Just someone with dist systems experience

It is a small pool I suppose.  Still outrageous what the person asked.

Personally I would go with someone who had better alignment and needed to learn the tech.  I just have better results like that.
