realunclej: Earlier I asked in this forum if I should relocate or establish a start-up based on my situation. I got a lot of genuine advise for both options. It was really an eye opener. You can read about it here https://www.nairaland.com/7181099/should-relocate-work-remotely-developer
First I want to thank all the people that shared their opinion: airsaylongcome Maclink288 bet9ja LikeAking truthsayer009 (special thanks) motionarena satandeterrible Playermaywed jackcanfield
These guys were awesome. After I carefully went through these feedback and putting other factors into consideration I decided to stage a start-up here in Nigeria.
I have come to the conclusion that if I get the start-up right, it can take me to any part of the world.
My resolution is:
1. To build a start-up that can scale globally 2. To build a start-up that can attract at least $2Million pre-seed investment 3. To start small and scale bigger in a short span 4. To launch my start-up in early 2023 5. To get all relevant licenses and legal backing
To begin, I plan to join the Founder Institute (https://fi.co/) Lagos Fall 2022 to accelerate my start-up and boost my chance of getting funded. Although the $399 application fee is a bit high.
I can also use all the help I can get. I want to assemble one of the best team in terms of the governing body, developers and staff.
I am currently looking for a few Nigerians who are experienced in the following fields to join my team: 1. Flutter Engineer (2 persons) 2. Python Backend Engineer (2 persons) 3. Node.js Backend Engineer (2 persons) 4. Senior React Engineer (3) 5. DevOps & Cloud Engineer (2 persons) 6. DevTools Engineer (1 person) 7. Database Engineer (2 persons) 8. UX/UI Designer (2 persons) 9. Frontend Engineer - API Design, API Publishing, Design System, API Client (2 persons) 10. Market Researcher (at least 1 person per community) 11. Web Research & Content Creator (1000 persons)
For some of the positions above, I will hire international consultants to complement the skills of the team. This will be for the duration of the project leading to the launching. For some of the tasks, I will make some financial remuneration that is reasonably acceptable based on the person's skill level. But since this is a project that has not kick-off, there is limit to the level I can pay. If you are interested just indicate below.
I will be sharing my progress in this thread as a guide to others who may want to follow this path.
I will also appreciate any feedback from those who have followed this journey. Am interested in joining the team as Devops Engineer |
