Check which shell is being run, and add the application to the startup script
for that shell and user like .profile .bashrc .bash_profile etc.
OR
write a simple "wrapper" program calling your application.
(this is really around 3-4 lines of C code)
setuid(users_id);
execlp("/full/path/program","argument 1", NULL);
OR (probably best solution)
make your application the default shell of your user in /etc/passwd
and use su without any options.
