Look at GitHub. That's where the superstars are.

@quinnli_oshea I'll try this out, seems like a great idea nonetheless
@sentry_co do you just find contributors on Github you like and then find them on another platform and cold outreach? Would love to learn more about this... I've considered it but honestly feels like a bad use of time... but maybe I'm thinking about it wrong?
@sentry_co thanks for sharing Andre
I did a successful search on Linkedin. I cold DM'd my current technical cofounder and had a long feeling out period. Has been nothing short of amazing and We are now in a place where we are anticipating the Launch of our marketplace for sign-ups come July 17th.
Funny nugget, the first DM I sent that met in person over coffee was unknowingly an engineer on the founding team of Apple Pay. Unfortunately, he had left Apple weeks prior to start his own start-up. We remain great friends but nothing short of amazing when he told me his accomplishments.
@divine_rivers1 that's amazing story man. Glad it worked for you.
Currently looking out for one
@emmanuelonuoha Yes and we just launched The Marketplace for Everyday Professionals to supplement their Salary today for sign-ups. Check it out at TheCareering.com My Co-Founder and I are looking for candid feedback from other Founders and builders as we are first-time Founders. Would love to hear your thoughts on everything from design, flow, idea, our solution, problem, and Marketing.

Use YC's platform for finding a cofounder.
