I'm the founder of Shaxpir, a word-processor in the cloud for fiction authors. I have a software engineering background, so I build the MVP myself. After two years of prototyping, I just launched the beta 2 months ago, and by now there are about 100 people using the beta. It's a desktop app built with web technologies (like Slack or Atom) and a Java backend on AWS with Elasticsearch.
Anyhow, I'm getting ready to start raising money in a few months, after the beta ends and we launch the product publicly. I've already recruited two co-founders, but I'm looking for a VP of Engineering. I'm based in Portland, OR, so somebody in the PNW would be ideal.
Here's a teaser video introducing the product:
