COMPENSATION AND OWNERSHIP
For the kinds of founding roles we most often create through this path, base salary is $125K-$250K and equity is 0.25%-1.50%. The actual package will depend on the role, seniority, and scope we define together.

THE CELL-NUMBER CHALLENGE
If you can find Luke's cell number, send a concise text explaining the specific problem you would solve at Hedge. Respectful initiative gets noticed. Generic pitches do not. Please do not repeatedly call or message.
WHO THRIVES HERE
