Finding and hiring a CTO for an early-stage startup is an uphill battle. It's harder than finding investors.
Being high in demand, CTOs can choose where they want to work and under which conditions. Enticing a rockstar CTO would either require big salaries or a huge chunk of equity.
Is your startup idea compelling enough for the CTO to want to quit their cushy corporate? If your CTO doesn't share the same vision, they won't stick with you till the end.
Even if you’re willing to spend exceptional remuneration, the shortage of c-suite tech talent makes headhunting even more challenging.
