Ok - Internet Consumer startups have been out of fashion for a while but since Hamilton Av in Palo Alto is full with incubated startups again you should consider this job:

"Company: Consumer Internet Start-Up

Job Title: CEO

Location: San Francisco bay, CA

Job Description:
We're looking for a CEO of a consumer Internet start-up.

About the company:
we are two engineers (one full-time and one-part-time) with a consumer internet property that has been getting some good traction recently. The site is starting to get popular (we launched a few months ago and started developing it in Feb 2005). The company is totally bootstrapped though we have access to capital if we want to go that route.

Criteria:
- intensely driven and proactive person
- extremely hard working. This is a start-up. We work 90 hour weeks -- you should too.
- understand the internet well. Have been involved in the internet for a while. Early adopter ... have played with many of the web 2.0 companies. you are familiar with sites like flickr, delicious, SimplyHired, Yelp, Digg, and others.
- quick learner and real doer (and you err on execution over strategy)
- smart at marketing, building buzz, and good at getting deals done
- people like you and like working with you (we'll require at least a dozen references)
- you are proactive and do not complain- you thrive on chaos, risk, and uncertainty
- we're willing to prioritize motivation over experience. And we're willing to take a risk on someone who does not have CEO experience or even consumer Internet experience.
- should be easy to get along with, nice, fun, smart, ethical, and low-maintenance
- did we mention that this person should be proactive?

Location:
- somewhere in the SF Bay Area (you choose). One engineer is in Fremont and the other is in San Francisco. Willing to commute to the location that you choose. Initially we'll all be working from home. Even willing to consider people who want to live outside the bay area

compensationlinks:
- the two cofounders currently own 100% of the company. The CEO has an opportunity to potentially join as an equal partner with the founders (up to 33% equity).
- there is no cash yet. There will not be any cash compensation until we raise money or increase or revenues -- you should have a decent enough financial situation where you can go up to a year without cash."
If interested, apply for the position on karmaOne.
