I’m currently working on my MVP with my other co-founders and the assumption is that I would quite my job once we receive our seed round. I’m not sure what the salary amount would be in respective of our burn and even reaching a series A.
My current role is senior eng making low 6 figures given the state of the market.
Our assumption is our seed would be around 3~5 mill and I would be taking the CTO role.
I’m trying to figure out what would be the appropriate salary and the opportunity cost of quitting my full time job?
If in a major US market I’ve seen 100-130k range post seed with the average on the lower end of that unless the person has kids.
