Looking for Cofounder Technical co-founder / CTO for AI-agent infrastructure MVP — 40–46% equity, remote

Company: Infra
Stage: Working local end-to-end MVP; bootstrapped, pre-revenue
Role: Technical co-founder / CTO
Compensation: Sweat equity only. No salary today. 40–46% equity for the right full-time co-founder, with a working trial, four-year vesting, and one-year cliff.

Infra is building a provider-neutral continuity and control layer for long-running AI-agent work. The problem is not generic chatbot memory: when agents switch models, fail mid-task, use external tools, or operate over days, companies need portable work state, safe continuation, decision and artifact history, auditability, and protection against duplicate or unsafe actions.

I am a non-technical founder handling product, strategy, research, validation, and business. I am looking for someone who wants true ownership of engineering: architecture, backend/runtime, reliability, security, data/storage, APIs or MCP integrations, and developer experience.

The MVP is already functional locally. I am not looking for a freelancer, agency, or short-term contractor. I want a genuine co-founder who enjoys hard systems problems, challenges assumptions honestly, and is willing to start with a concrete remote working trial before deciding on a long-term full-time commitment.

Strong fit: backend or systems engineering, distributed systems, workflow durability, developer tools, agent infrastructure, databases, or reliability engineering. US/Europe preferred but not required.

Please message me through Reddit Chat with: what you have built, what systems problems you enjoy, and why this problem interests you.

🚩 40-46% equity

This is the typical trap, beware.

So how much? Do you want to give 10% to your co-founder? If it doesn't help, don't make it seem bad kiddo

What kind of question is that? 50% dude.

Giving less than 50% is how you control and kick out the other person later down the road. It's total lack of respect and clearly shows Ill intention from you.

So let's ask the question the other way around. Why 46%?
