Cool Tech News is building "Bloomberg for 2026" and hiring a Founding CTO.
I'm investing $2M as a pre-seed round and helping CEO
@patrickmcguire get it off the ground.
This is by far the most ambitious new media company I'm aware of. The conventional media component is just the tip of the iceberg. (Bloomberg is far more than media too and is a ~$100B business.)
The team today is 5 people strong and this is the next key hire. Please us help find them!
This person:
• Is comfortable building end to end solo, ideally in Rails using the Hotwire stack, but open to others too.
• Has strong product instinct and design intuition, can take direction from design, but also able to make good calls independently.
• Cares about clean, pragmatic code and elegant implementations that make the product great.
• Is motivated by early-stage work: fast iteration, high autonomy, building from zero.
• Enjoys working with LLMs and modern tooling, but is capable without them. Ideally has experience building with LLMs.
• Has experience working with and modeling messy data from disparate sources.
