Where to find a competent CTO?

Question

Project management

The company develops new products (analytical platforms) and since the office is not in Moscow, there is no way to influence the process. What community resources are there to meet experienced tech leaders/managers?

Answer 1

You can meet them anywhere, from hunter sites and social networks to professional parties - the question is whether you have something to interest them.

Answer 2

Only hunting. Honestly, I just do not understand why you are asking this question here.
Formulate at least a range of tasks that you want to solve, think about other wishes and fight. As correctly unsubscribed above - ready to look for more and longer.

Answer 3

Yes, even here.
But if we are talking specifically about work, it’s still worth going the classic way to
the headhunter sites of
the freelance exchange
for friends to ask around.
there are no other effective ways.

Answer 4

Method 1. Ask your friends who they can recommend.
The easiest way is to make a post on social networks asking someone to recommend. At least - a post with a link to a vacancy, and even cooler - both a link and a video / really cool, catchy text advertising a vacancy (unconventional, creative - so that your friends would really like to share your vacancy ad, throw a link to friends). If you have many friends on social networks, if you send a link to such a post in a personal message to those who have many friends and who have many connections in the circles you need, then the likelihood that your cry will reach the right person increases. For example, I am often asked to recommend someone, and often they either verbally write who is needed (without a link to the vacancy), or there is a link, but the vacancy is described dryly. But for social networks, it is important that it is cool for people to post a job announcement (if, for example, there is a photo of an unusual office, unusual conditions,
In short, what I would advise:
1. Prepare a post for social networks with a link to a full-fledged job description and with a creative description from you (ideally, a video). The post requires you to briefly explain to your friends in ordinary, normal language who you need and why the vacancy is cool (uncool ones will be bored and too lazy to repost).
2. Post a post on all social networks with a request to recommend a person in the comments (or send a link to the post to such friends).
3. Send additionally your finished post (both with a creative and with a link to a full job description)
This way you can increase the likelihood that since a person was really recommended, since those who worked with a person vouch for him, then he can really be entrusted with work tasks .
Pyotr Ponomarev talks well about how to compose the text of a vacancy normally . Key: the text should repel, weed out freeloaders and those who you don't need. For example, there are vacancies that directly say something along the lines of: “We don’t have gyroscooters, cupcakes and smoothies in our office, but there are difficult tasks, really professional colleagues who are constantly developing, who have a lot to learn, and who will be happy to share experiences with a fellow professional, and there are ambitious plans to develop a product that will change the automotive industry."

also writes good articles about hiring . Examples of creative from the field of hiring - the first example of a creative job description - time ,
the second example of a creative job description , an example of a resume .

Method 2. Search through agencies.
I can recommend a cool specialist, Zhenya Ostroumova from GMS - IT-recruitment agency. The boys use a hell of a system, which pulls data from wherever possible - from hh.ru, LinkedIn, from social networks and even from GitHub and StackOverflow. With such data aggregation, the search for candidates, as you understand, becomes much more qualitative than just when searching on hh.ru, LinkedIn and Moy.Krug (where ordinary recruiters look for and where cool techies often do not have the most pumped and up-to-date profile).
