Backend developer for early tech startup to transform digital dating

Salary Competitive
Equity To be negotiated

We're taking up the fight against the dating giants to change today's shallow online dating culture, and to create a more authentic and meaningful digital dating world, by matching and connecting singles on personal values, both at physical events and on an independent mobile app. You'll be working closely with an experienced and very passionate team of full-stack developers who are experts at JavaScript (ES6) and Node.js, and React Native for front-end.


We have a science-based methodology to map personal values, and are now building a mobile app experience for people to get matched and interact with other singles based on their own personal values. In addition and in connection to this, we are running a physical event series where we match singles live which is wildly popular, that we also want to integrate more into the digital experience. We've got some very heavy investors with us onboard, and our plan is to launch and get a good proof of concept in Stockholm and then expand into The US and the UK in 2019.

You will be working closely with a team of highly skilled full-stack developers, on all challenges related to the back-end, such as our algorithm and matching, a new kind of facilitated chat function, test-driven development and capacity management. Best would be if you are fluent in Node.js and JavaScript (ES6). We're also working with MongoDB, Redis, GraphQL, Docker, Kubernetes, and React Native.

Most important to us is that you're as passionate as we are about making a positive change in the world, that you love coding and are eager to learn and develop personally. 

We're a small team, but we're growing fast and the future looks bright. :D

Looking forward to hearing from you!
