Who we are

😼 We are a small but very competitive startup.
We are incredibly visionary. Decently competent. Reasonably funded. Subpar at sticking to deadlines.

  • Cool af: What we are building and how we are doing it are one for the history books.
  • Chill af: Work remotely, manage your own time, skip work when you need to.
  • 0% BS: 0% political behaviour, 0% bureaucracy, 0% pedantry, 0% ass-kissing.
  • Give & Take: We won’t take a bullet for you but we’ll never throw you under the bus either.
  • Not a: Family. But not a toxic elite team either. Just… a competitive yet reliable company.

The role

💼 No fixed role or rank.
We offer you a role as big as you can handle. If you are a world-class pro (and prove it) we’ll let you drive. If you are a talented newbie, we’ll let you intern.

  • Make the first move: Pitch your marketing strengths, desired level, and compensation.
  • Expect negotiation: We’ll match on scope and budget.
  • Prove your worth: Demonstrate your amazing skills and leave us speechless.

What you’ll do

Make us pixel-perfect. Just that.
Ensure our app looks and works flawlessly on both Android and iOS.

  • Module integration: Add and configure Expo and custom native libraries.
  • UI/UX polish: Adapt layouts, animations, assets for both platforms.
  • Background processing: Implement tasks, syncing, offline support.
  • Push notifications: Setup, handle permissions, customize behaviors.
  • Performance: Profile and optimize CPU, memory, and load times.
  • Bug fixing: Diagnose and resolve platform-specific issues.
  • Testing: Write and maintain unit and end-to-end tests for mobile flows.

How you’ll do it

🧠 Work smarter, not harder.
Automate, automate, automate. Do so with good taste, common sense and care.

  • GPT: Ask our most senior and wisest advisor.
  • Plan ahead: Plan first (even for yourself) → confirm when necessary → execute methodically.
  • Be strategic: Not dogmatic. Not experimental. Choose a result, find how to get it.
  • Guidance: Collaborate directly with the founder and exec advisors.
  • Trends & best practices: Stay up-to-date with trends, read documentation and guides…
  • Notion: Organise info with our chef’s-kiss Notion content planner and other templates.
  • Rkive AI: Automate editing, publishing and analytics with our own tool.
  • Feedback: Iterate from code reviews, user metrics, and QA reports.
  • Tools & workflows: Use Expo CLI, EAS, Notion, GitHub, CI/CD pipelines.

Who you are

💍 We want true love, not a marriage of convenience.
We don’t care about your qualifications, 5+ years of experience, etc.

  • A well paid hobby: You’d do this for free because you love it, it just happens to be profitable.
  • Avid learner: You like learning your craft, languages, history, new things...
  • Curious: You want to peek behind the scenes, witness history, see how things work.
  • Comfortable with new stuff: You don’t tolerate uncertainty; you enjoy it.
  • Adventurous: You hate corporate laziness; you’d hack this just for the thrill.
  • Assertive: You say what you want clearly and respectfully, without games or roundabouts.
  • Analytical: You thrive on metrics and long hours digging into performance.

When

🏡 Join in 30–90 days, stay forever.
We are looking for a long term relationship, not short term fun.

  • Rolling interviews: We interview (and hire) as CVs arrive. First come first served.
  • Start: As early as July 1st & as late as September 1st.
  • Bonus: Performance-based cash bonuses.

What

👀 Show us something worth seeing.
But most importantly, show us YOU. A perfect CV will land you an interview, not a role.

  • CV: Keep a balance of readability and completeness, the rest is up to you.
  • Portfolio: Links to apps, modules, PRs, or repos.
  • Recommendations: From bosses, co-workers, peers… your mom?
  • Cover letter: Tell us why you want to work here!
