I created Buttr, a p2p grocery shopping service. We pair people with dedicated buyers who choose their groceries and deliver them to their door. Unlike Instacart, Buttr shoppers decide which items to buy and charge a flat fee, no markups.

Buttr is live with a handful of paying subscribers, buying a few thousand dollars a month in groceries. I hacked the product together myself using Zapier and open source ecommerce software. Previously, I served as the founder/CEO of a funded crowdsourcing company ($1.1M from Google & Mitch Kapor) that was acquired last year.

The ideal partner has co-founded a funded company before and witnessed first hand the bullshit and emotional craziness that comes with the territory, and despite everything, wants to do it again. My goal is to build a big, valuable company with a fanatical customer base. Raising money and impressing VCs is a means, not an ends. Hopefully you feel the same.

You should be extremely technical yet understand that technology is only a means to an end, a tool for man to judged only by how it helps men (and women) achieve. Though able to solve the hardest of problems, you should endeavor to architect solutions in a way that avoids or bypasses the most challenging problems altogether. Operating leverage--your ability to do so much with so little--not technical brawn, should be your claim to fame.
