About OleOle
OleOle is building the world’s first social networking and messaging platform for football fans, integrating features similar to WeChat, Twitter, WhatsApp, and TikTok. Our tech stack is native, built in Rust, and we are in the early development phase after completing the prototype and wireframes.

We are seeking a hands-on, technical, and strategic CTO who has built and scaled startups. You will lead, mentor, and coach a young, global, remote engineering team operating on deferred compensation until we close funding.

• A technical expert – Strong background in Rust and is an active coder.
• A team coach & mentor – You can motivate and develop junior engineers.
• Experienced in remote teams – You have led distributed teams across multiple time zones.
• Willing to work for deferred compensation – Until funding closes, the team is working on a sweat equity model.
• Ideally has access to capital – While not required, a CTO with investor connections would be a huge plus.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead & build our Rust-native platform from the ground up.
• Mentor & develop a young engineering team working for deferred compensation.
• Ensure scalability, security, and performance of our architecture.
• Work hands-on with the codebase, setting up best practices.
• Coordinate development timelines for Phase 1 (7–8 months) and Phase 2 (9–10 months).
• Align with our vision to build the world's largest sports social platform.

Why Join Us?
