# Hiring

I described the ideal “Hector” as a creator who (1) can showcase a project in a few years, (2) becomes well‑known on tech‑Twitter and can work on Instagram/TikTok at will, and (3) earns good money.

I asked @wizardoffloz: “did i not write they would be ex‑founders on a break between their ventures?” – a brief apology followed, seeking confirmation whether I had already described the subjects as ex‑founders on a break.

I posted a talent‑shortage call on 2026‑10‑09 describing the hardest role to hire for in crypto and AI startups, seeking candidates who are chronically online, have creative taste, understand crypto (or AI), and can execute with high quality.

The role is described as “literal hardest role to hire for rn and every crypto startup wants someone”.

- chronically online (knows trends)

I publicly solicited self‑identification or referrals because the pool of people meeting all four criteria is “such a small niche of folks who can do this”.

- has taste & can create (new media)
- understands crypto & technical
- can execute with quality (operator)

I was asked for help designing tokenomics for a product and asked who is good at this (2026‑09‑26 08:05 UTC).

I declared that building on‑chain social is the most contrarian thing to do right now and offered my resources to anyone willing to work on it.

onchain_social.contrarian_status = most contrarian thing to do right now

onchain_social.resources_available = true

I argued that the claim was false, saying the people were poached and that Sheryl Sandberg joined Facebook once it was clear it was a juggernaut.

I decided to make 24x7 availability a non‑negotiable hiring criterion, stating that anyone who cannot devote a year or two of their life to continuous work should not be hired.

hiring.criteria = 24x7 availability required

I reflected that curating my Instagram feed for six months made it feel far more Intelligent and sane than my Twitter (X) feed, reinforcing my belief that personal feed curation shapes one’s personality.

I curated my Instagram feed for six months, after which I judged it “way more Intelligent and sane” than my Twitter feed.

I asked @nicky_sap and @farcaster_xyz if they could lead the on‑chain social initiative with passion, and invited anyone else who might be a better fit.

A part‑time, monthly QA tester is being recruited to continuously test https://raisekit.co and report bugs, with a strong emphasis on attention to detail.

Applications are accepted only via public comments on the post; direct messages are not permitted.

I am looking for people who are smart and want to build/sell.

I warned that you shouldn’t expect a “100x engineer” to also raise funding for startups on 2026-08-01 18:36 UTC.

I am looking for two full‑time, remote‑first leaders for my startup‑focused team.

- **Startup Network Lead** – must be a “kickass startups person” who can engage a large VC network to secure funding.
- Expect an “insane number of hours” due to mission difficulty; full‑time only.

The hiring post tags the user “machaao”.

- Remote work allowed, occasional travel to “weird beautiful places”.
- Responses should be sent via DM tagging @machaao.
- **Automated Engineering Lead** – must have an entire automated engineering setup and will NOT write or review any code lines.
