Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

The world paused this year, to take a breath, and recognize the human impact on the planet and on each other is causing global distress. Some of us noticed this decades ago, some of us are noticing now for the first time. And that is ok, but now is the time we must take action.

But being a good human has challenges. Societal norms and consumerism have taught us to take the convenient and privileged path. But there is a hidden deep cost for those choices that increasingly more of us are noticing every day. So...we have built an immersive mobile app, GoodHuman, to discover all things ethical and sustainable. It leverages a powerful curation platform we’ve designed based on decades of experience building and growing content companies.

We are a funded early stage startup seeking a stellar Senior Full Stack Developer who loves to code iOS apps and supported infrastructure and is ready to build something for good.

Imagine a world where everyone can be a good human. A safe and secure community where conscious consumers can connect with others on the same mission and use their spending power to make a positive impact in the world. That’s the world we’re building. And we’re looking for people with integrity who are motivated by the idea of building a community with great positive impact.

If you are a Full Stack developer with front-end experience who is passionate about building something that can have a positive impact on others and the world,

we need you.

The top traits we look for in candidates are voracious curiosity, positive attitude and a sense of mission. We love people who attempt to do things that their resume says they're unqualified to do and things that would scare normal people in their position.

This isn't our first time as startup founders. We've set out to create a very intentional, high-performance and mission-driven culture. We work long hours, but we try to practice good self-care, and encourage all team members to do the same.

Because the future of humanity is so central to the product that we're building, diversity &inclusion (gender, age, class, politics, ethnicity) is a strategic priority and not just a nice thing we talk about. Women &ethnic minorities especially welcome.
