Chief Technology Officer (Founding Team)

About the Role:

Milgai.com is on a mission to remove the financial barriers to higher education in Israel using AI.

After a massive MVP launch with hundreds of organic signups within 48 hours, we are ready to scale.

We are looking for a visionary, hands-on CTO to join our founding team. This isn’t a standard 9-to-5, it’s an invitation to build a game-changing company from the ground up. You will be the technical authority, the architect, and a key partner in every strategic decision.

What you’ll do:

• Lead the Tech: Take full ownership of our tech stack (Next.js, Firebase, AI integrations).
• Architect for Scale: Transition our MVP into a robust, high-traffic platform capable of serving tens of thousands of users.
• Product Strategy: Work closely with the CEO to define the product roadmap and translate user needs into features.
• Build the Team: As we grow, you will lead the hiring and mentoring of our future engineering team.

Who you are:

• A Technical Powerhouse: Strong experience with Next.js and Firebase (or similar modern stacks). Knowledge of AI/LLM integrations is a huge plus.
• An Entrepreneur at Heart: You understand that "done is better than perfect" but you never compromise on architecture. You are a Doer.
• Committed: You are ready to dive deep into a founding journey, including the challenges and the massive rewards that come with it.
• Strategic Thinker: You don't just write code, you build a business.

Why join us?

• Founding Equity: Significant equity stake in the company.
• Impact: Solve a real, painful problem for students and veterans in Israel.
• Momentum: We already have the traction, we just need the engine to take us to the next level.
