Commandiv | CTO & CoFounder | NYC Hey friends, John here - I am the CEO of Commandiv (My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnzettler). I am a financial engineer who left the hedge fund world to make investing easier for self-directed investors. I am actively looking for a software engineering partner. Ping me at john (at) commandiv (dot) com if you're interested in learning more. Hiring process: meet in person or video chat; I will demo for you the Alpha product (and build you a personalized portfolio down to the tickers & # of shares to buy); we can go from there... About Commandiv: Commandiv is an over-the-top investment advisor for self-directed investors. Users get value from: 1) Robo-Assist trade recommendations (all advisory/backtesting algos fully developed); 2) full control over their investments; 3) and account consolidation of all their liquid investments. We are not a broker-dealer and don’t want to be. We plug into broker-dealer APIs and earn money from BD-paid referral fees, and user-paid advisory fees (25bps of AUM). Initially, we are targeting educated, employed 26-45-year-olds who have $5-100k in cash external to their employer-sponsored retirement plans. This target customer knows little about investing; she is self-directed and has done preliminary research; and she craves a one-stop shop to learn, build trust, and get invested. In order to acquire customers at greater scale, we will use a Learning Platform (think: Duolingo / TurboTax) to drive account creation (curriculum fully developed).
