If you're entrepreneurial minded, head to your nearest startup meetup/founder networking event and chat to founders. Nearly all the founders are non technical and have the same problem, no tech talent to build their product and no funding to to hire one.

But you could get a significant percentage of the business if you become a co-founder and you would basically have the pick of the bunch.

You probably don't even have to leave amazon if you can smash out a quick prototype over a weekend, then only leave if they get funding and the startup takes off.

This is terrible advice. The non-technical founders who are struggling to find someone to implement their "great idea" are never[0] worth working for. It's not like you'd get a 50% share of the company anyway.

[0]: I'm sure exceptions exist. I've never met one.

Never build a product for some random non technical founder

Tenuous side-hustles don't get grown and built in a crisis to make a living.

It's far better to have a stable 9-5 gig and then build things on the side intending to grow them, or at least let them validate/bake with other income and/or savings to see where they go.
