This made me laugh, because although the intention was well-meaning (you're dealing with technical co-founders), an experienced programmer will instantly realize that the probable case is what you pointed out.

I also agree that calling this position a "lead engineer" is horribly misleading. My take is they want a combination of a DevOps person and a Product Manager. Unless the product is trivial, this is seriously a terrible gig -- jack of all trades, master of none.

I almost sprayed coffee on my screen when I read that part about technical debt, and instead managed to somehow laugh around the mouthful.
