Full-Stack Developer (Austin-Based, In-Person Only) — Contract-to-Hire (Stealth Startup)
Compensation: Flat-fee MVP build ($10,000, milestone-based) with pathway to full-time + equity
Location: Austin, TX (In-Person Only — No Remote, No Hybrid)
Company: Stealth-Mode Consumer Platform (Details shared post-NDA)
About the Role
We are seeking an Austin-based full-stack developer to build the MVP for a new stealth-mode consumer platform. All product screens and flows are already fully designed in Figma for both mobile and web.
You will build the MVP end-to-end across mobile (iOS/Android), web, backend, and lightweight admin tooling. This is a hands-on role requiring local, in-person collaboration with the founder.
NDA Required: Full project details, Figma access, user roles, and scope will be shared only after candidates sign an NDA.
Compensation & Structure
- Flat-fee: $10,000 total
- Paid by milestones, not hourly
- Option to transition into full-time and equity after fundraising
- This role is for a single developer, not agencies or distributed teams
Skills We’re Looking For
- Austin-based only (non-negotiable)
- Strong experience with React Native (mobile), React/Next.js (web)
- Strong backend experience (Supabase, Firebase, or Node/Postgres)
- Ability to ship real MVPs quickly and cleanly
- Startup/0→1 mindset
- Comfortable working founder-direct and in person
