Redwood.rent is on a mission to revolutionise the way people experience ‘home’ around the world. We believe who you live with is just as important as where you live, so starting with the UK, we’re taking on the £54Bn rental market and helping the 1.6M+ people who can’t afford to live by themselves.
The Role
We’re looking for a full stack developer to join our founding team and help build version 2.0 of our app from the ground up. You should have:
-
Experience building system architecture from scratch for highly scalable mobile web apps
-
Experience with cloud platforms
-
Knowledge in database design & management
-
Preference towards backend but capable of delivering a strong front end at times
-
Have a good understanding of cybersecurity & user privacy best practices (previous experience complying with GDPR is a bonus)
-
DevOps experience including continuous integration and delivery
-
Work side-by-side with the founding team as well as contribute to establishing long-term goals
-
Be open to managing teams of front and back end developers as we expand in the near future
Experience
-
Front End: React Native, CSS, HTML
-
Back End: JS / Typescript, Node.js or Turf.js
-
Database & Web Framework: Postgres (or MySQL), Express (or equivalent)
-
What will set you apart: prior experience developing dating apps or working with map APIs
What We’re Offering
-
Opportunity: We’re early in development which means you’ll be joining the founding team. That means there’s a huge opportunity for growth. As the company grows, you’ll be one of the key stakeholders in making crucial decisions steering the direction of the company and the product. You also have the opportunity to grow into more senior positions faster than other companies with layers of pre-existing infrastructure
-
Equity: As part of your compensation package, you’ll be offered equity to join our founding team. We’re entering a huge market (£54bn in the UK alone) and have an extremely ambitious vision to re-define the rental experience globally. Joining us at this early stage with the equity on offer is a rare opportunity. That said, we know you can’t live off stock options forever. As Redwood grows and raises more money in the future, so will your salary. Redwood’s rate of growth is completely in our hands and with our amazing advisory board and connections in Silicon Valley, we’re primed to grow big and fast!
-
Rapid Learning & Reach: There really isn't anything like Redwood on the market which means you'll be learning quickly and innovating on a daily basis with the opportunity to build something that will impact millions of people
About You
-
You're a self starter and highly motivated to build an incredible product from scratch
-
Be comfortable working in the unknown and with the risk associated in working at a startup
-
Innovation mindset - you’re a dreamer and a big picture thinker
-
Have a keen eye for good design and user experience
-
Empathy is one of the foundations of Redwood. Your mindset is naturally geared towards trying to understand others and putting yourself in their shoes. The same ethos carries from thinking about our customers through to everyone within the Redwood team
-
Ego has no place at Redwood. We’re all about building an inclusive, supportive workplace. You’re more passionate about getting the right answers rather than being right yourself
