Ex-Activision-Blizzard dev and CS graduate with tons of startup experience seeking out like minded people.
👋, I am Christoph, a Software Engineer from Austria 🇦🇹. Former Frontend Developer @ Activision Blizzard and co-founder of 3 startups out of which
- 1 got acqui-hired 🥳
- 1 ran out of money 😶
- 1 is still running 🚀
My heart beats not only for state-of-the-art tech-stacks but also for products that make life a bit easier.
Whether you're full of crazy ideas and looking for your technical half, in the middle of an exciting project and looking for an ambitious techie or just need a technical buddy to brainstorm together over a nice wine - hit me up 💬.
I’m looking for a technical founder to helps build a micro-content publishing web app (think 200 words in a specific format). I’ve had a successful exit previously. I’ve also run a UX company before and currently works a Lead Product Manager in ML/AI space. I’m strong on business, product and design and would love to work with someone to build out an idea (I have a few lined up). I’m based in SF California. I think my idea is strong, not a heavy lift, and has interest from mentors that may also invest if we think that’s best. Please reach out if this sounds interesting :)
Hi @hsial, sounds interesting! Let's talk. Please feel free to write me a mail. You can find my address here on my IH profile.
I rarely see indiehackers aiming for unicorn status.
I wonder how the response rate would be for
"Ex-Activision-Blizzard Dev and CS graduate with tons of startup experience like minded people to hit 20k MRR"
Thanks for your valuable feedback, @volkandkaya - I think you might be right. Might've been too much of a good thing.
Hi Christoph. Hope you're well.
I'm working on building a better way to book hotels. You can check out our pre-launch page at getporter.co.uk.
Let me know if you think this might be interesting. Would be good to chat.
Sounds challenging. Would definitely like to learn more about it.
Fancy a video chat at some point this week?
Cristoph,
Thanks for replying. Wouldn't mind discussing further. Equity only at this point, and in the world of comics, with plans to scale into other verticals. Currently starting our product discussions, and need UI/UX, front and back end development. Web, and mobile responsive only at this point. My partner and I are based in California, USA. e-mail me at wearezoop@gmail.com. Have a portfolio to share? Thanks!
Former Monster Energy marketing guy. Just stopping by to say hello :-)
What are you currently working on?
I am working on a media project. A website that is mainly a trending news platform that hosts a Q and A section and also a lifestyle section for entertainment. I enjoy trying to tie in the lifestyle aspect of it since that is the portion of the website that will draw in a specific type of consumer.
Would be definitely interested in having a chat with you. Just let me know if you can find some time.
Hello my man :D
Hey @Druux, a little late to the party but your post caught my attention. Have tons of startup experience here as well - mostly in design, frontend, and marketing capacities. I'm currently working as a frontend engineer at a seed stage fintech.
I'm breaking ground on a real estate SaaS and considering partnering up with someone more technical than myself. Let me know if you have any interest bootstrapping something in the proptech space.
Hi Keeg! Please just drop me a line. You can find my email on my IH profile.
What's up Christoph! I'm building Stridist.com, a fitness and nutrition coaching SaaS platform. Close to launching but looking for some help fine-tuning the product and exploring a React Native app. Open to either sweat equity arrangement or potentially part-cash/part equity. Let me know if you have any interest in this product space.
Hi hackfitness! I am personally not that deeply involved in the fitness industry. My interests are currently going in other directions. Anyway, I wish you only the very best!
Hi Druux, I have a million dollar idea but need a technical partner to implement. The bottleneck is I don't want to pitch it until I know I have met the right guy. :) Can you advice how to go ahead in the situation?
Hi Jeypore! I'm generally cautious when it comes to "million dollar ideas" :D. Anyway, we can talk about it briefly, maybe I can help.
Yes, I can email you with a little bit more detail.
@druxx Awesome background. Thanks for broadcasting your energy. Love it! I am coming out of the physical realm (built successfully various brick and mortar businesses) with a solid capital base. Now I am keen to embrace new tech (even though I am quite young, haven't really built any digital products yet). First step: 100x the podcasting world. In the meantime, love creating value, building beautiful products, and always treading at the edge of the comfort zone. Wanna build an idea workshop, Edison style, where the team can pilot and prototype at will without having short-sighted stakeholders breathing down their necks. Ping me at: dmitriy@generationxinnovation.com.
Hi Dima! Thanks for your kind words. Please just drop me a line. You can find my email on my IH profile.
Hey Chris,
I'm working on a platform for gamers, to play esports games and earn prizes. The idea for now is a pool-prize mechanism, with the entry fees of the players, the winner get the full prize (minus mine commission).
The next feature I'm working on right now will be to be able to create tournaments (this will be a B2C but also B2B business model).
Then, I want to create an SDK to let game creators to integrate directly with my gaming platform taking advantage of our users acquisition and all the technical stuff around wallet, transactions, etc...
You can find more about this app here: https://progamer.app
This is one of a lot of projects I want to create in the coming months.
Currently this is only as a side-project, I still work full-time on a company during the day. So, my goal is soon to be available to work on my own projects in full-time.
It will be interesting to have a direct conversation with you.
Hi DFortu! Thank you so much for reaching out. As you probably guessed, I have dedicated many years in the past to the gaming industry. I would like to dive into other industries at least now. Hope you understand.
Sure I totally understand.
But actually what I meant was that I'm focusing on creating multiple projects (not only the ProGamer).
I have some multiple ideas:
The goal of ProGamer was more like a kick-off, I'm not thinking my future will be this industry (probably I will sell this project to some betting platform that knows better the market and own the right licenses, I'm just focusing on be able to focus on my own projects quite soon).
So, anyway, if you want to have a talk, let me know. Wish you the best :)
Hi Christoph! Are you into app dev?
Yes I am. I have been focusing more on React Native Apps in recent projects. However, I have also had experience with Android Java and iOS Swift a few years ago.
Awesome! We're currently building an app which focuses on tracking steps and incorporates gamification elements with social features. Since we've just started, we're looking for someone to help us develop it, guide and advice us in the right direction. We're very short on funding since we're doing everything ourselves and therefore would require financial support too. Let me know if you'd be interested in something like that!

Hi turbocafe. Thanks for your comment. Glad you are taking care of the wine :). If you are still interested, we could set up a quick call to see where both our interests lie.
