Startup negotiation – first engineer hire

Two non-tech founders. Bay area. Series A went well, they made about 500k. They came to me looking for a senior developer with potential for CTO to write 1st prototype and take charge of development. First few meetings went well, and they asked what I would like to be paid.

What are some guidelines for salary/equity? Would 140k and 2% seem greedy?
