Nerds welcome!

Looking for 1-2 developers

We are building technology behind the otherwise superficial category of skincare and now we’re looking for engineers who are excited to help build a better world for skin through data and design. Ideal candidates will be passionate about delivering software that works and changing the way an entire industry works. We’re a female led high-energy startup with big goals and bigger dreams - we appreciate character, passion and an attitude that gets things done. 

We’re in the early stages with an MVP out, great traction and about to close our Seed round. 

About Us

We are revolutionizing women's product discovery for problematic skin and changing how skincare brands understand, identify, and target their audiences. And we are on a mission to democratize data!

We value your knowledge over degrees, attitude over qualifications and personality over boring. So you, do you! (And we don't care if you play CS all night long!)

Responsibilities

• Develop web-based (and potentially native iOS/Android) application to interact with users, collecting data about their skin care routines and giving them meaningful, data-driven feedback and recommendations.

• Help build a database of skin care products, concerns, and routines – and the tools to populate and maintain it.

• Build creative and technically robust solutions to the product challenges we face.

• Participate in - and drive - architectural decisions concerning the software and how it will be moved from design process to a working beta.

• Build and maintain strategies to automate performance, regression, and unit testing of the software.

Ideal Qualifications

• BS or BE degree in Computer Science or other STEM program with a solid grasp on the fundamentals

• A track record of delivering products that have seen real-world usage

• Professional experience as a software developer building across multiple layers of the stack

• Experience with JavaScript and modern frameworks such as React, Vue, or Angular

• Familiarity with databases, MVC design patterns, and asynchronous programming techniques

• Willing to experiment with and learn new technologies, while keeping an eye on the long-term

• If you are a senior we expect you to oversee quality from a distributed team in three different timezones

• Professional, detail-oriented, and energetic personality

What we can offer

• Opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a revolutionary startup

• The chance to work with a founding team that has a deep knowledge of the skincare industry and a history of success 

• Strong technical leadership

• Freedom to work remote with an international and multidisciplinary team
