Ask HN: Career options for technical ex-founder?
2 by inc0gnit0 | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I've been on my entrepreneurship journey for the last 3 years and started 2 startups. The first one was with a co-founder (didn't work) and the 2nd one as a solo-founder (currently bootstrapping as an indie hacker). Before that, I was a full-stack developer for 4 years or so. Throughout the journey, I've acquired many important skills apart from development like a sense for good design, product, hiring, marketing, talking to customers, etc. Even though I could keep building my startup, I've realized that building a startup takes lots of stress, day doesn't end at 5 pm, and I end up working most of the weekends. This means very little time for other activities/hobbies/relationships. Long story short, I'm now looking for a less stressful role where working hours are defined and pay is decent so I could afford an exciting life outside work. I'm not sure what kind of companies and roles should I be looking into now that I've gained experience as a technical ex-founder?
