I will get my Master&#x27;s degree in Computer Science in March, and I was already looking for a stable job with a decent salary. But today I got a shocking offer from my boss.<p>I am currently working as a Software Engineer intern at a startup. This internship is like a final thesis for my Master&#x27;s degree. And apparently, they saw my &quot;enthusiasm&quot; and want me to become the CTO of the startup, the problem is that I do not have that much experience, I have less than 2 years of professional experience (I am only 24 years old) and I only started coding 3 years ago! I really was looking for a stable job, just to get more experience, save some money and eventually become an entrepreneur and create my own company.<p>But this looks like a way too big jump for me. What if I fail? What if the startup fails because of me? Because basically every single engineer that I would hire would be smarter than me and would have more experience than me. However, none of them would be as motivated or enthusiast as me, I know that.<p>The other main problem would be my salary, which would basically be 0 $us until we get funded, which, according to my boss, could be in May 2016 or even before that.<p>This will be a life-changing decision for me, so please, I need your advice.
Ask HN: Should I accept a CTO position without much experience?
