Looking for another dev on nearly-complete SaaS

Hey everyone,

I've been working on a SaaS now for months and its pretty close to done - except running into issue with deployment. It seems whats working in dev isn't working as expected in production, mostly, and there may be some work required to change the codebase for production.

I'm looking for a partner to work with me on the SaaS. It's similar to hypefury, in the sense you can schedule content to social media, and reply to content ect. although I have plans in the works that will definitely differentiate it as a product.

If someone wants to come in at the 8th inning and help me get this over the line, I can continue to support dev work while also growing the business's marketing and sales. I'm a developer, but also have experience in sales, so I know what needs to be done to take this project from idea to success.

I just need another person who help me get this thing finished and from there, we can iterate on the product while growing the business.

Email me at [email protected] if this sounds interesting and I can show you the project as well chat together about what is needed to get it into the world.

    Hello Seth,

    I know I am little late to this discussion, however is it still in progress or have you found someone? Let me know. Here is my website: https://salttechno.com

    The premise sounds great! I'd like to see this product. I've ran a couple business and currently own and running ByteAmite.com

    Feel free to contact me, I'd love to hear more and potentially partner up on this if the fit is right. I have experience with some development, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, etc.

    You should probably share more about the technical side of things. What tools/stack are you using?

    Also the offer is unclear, do you have a job you are willing to pay for, and once it's done, then you part ways? Or are you offering equity, etc.

    I'm too busy with my own ideas, but just asking these questions in order to try to help you find someone :)

      Postgres/Node/Tailwind/React/Redux/Redis + 3rd party npm packages I'd say mostly. I'm looking to offer significant equity for another dev to partner with me on the project. Not too far out from productizing it, just need a hand for the final leg and then further iterations once we are live. Meanwhile, I'll shift my attention to sales ect.

    It is just a hunch, but by any chance you are using Docker or something similar?

    1. 1

      nope, not using Docker, but its not a bad idea.

        I would say Docker is good to try out. Keep it super simple, but it does seems like a good tool if your problem is that production environment is different than local on your laptop. Be sure to not overcomplicate things, as I think Petrovn is trying to warn you about. Don't go Kubernetes and all that.

          Yea I think I will need Docker, especially if I want someone to join me on this venture! Will make it easier for us all to collaborate.

      2. 1

        I was suggesting you have trouble because you use Docker or some similar mess, but there is always the option for other messes like React, Python, Node, Lavarel, native cloud AWS API's ...

      tech people don't do any of the 1 true 9 :), they just build things as they see something they can build easily, better or both, there are some like me that build for fun and/or just to see can we do it.

      How did you see the UI of my app if it isn't deployed?

          So you built a company which did as I described and were successful? Sounds to me like there is demand for a product in this space and you have already proved the demand for it.

          My unique value prop is both in the software I'm building and the people I'm building it with. Every company is made of people, and when you pay for a service you're essentially saying you trust in the people that work there as much as you are the service.

          Differentiation comes in lots of flavors too. Could be UI, could be in cost, could be in offered integrations, could be in lots of things. This is why multiple products can coexist in a market.
