CTO/Lead developer in fast-growing startup

Salary Competitive
Equity To be negotiated

Hooves brings horses – one of the most expensive sports in the world – into the sharing economy.


We are looking for a hands-on CTO to develop the new version of Hooves. After a successful MVP iOS app launch, we’re now building a proper, scalable product on both iOS and Android. The decision on whether it will be done native or in a cross-compiled framework (ie React Native) depends on your skillset. And of course you won't be working alone – the whole tech team will consist of 2-3 skilled developers & designers. The core app consists of an "Airbnb" search platform and management tools such as a calendar, diary and task list. 

You will work closely with the founders, but you are also expected to take initiative, be self-driven and work independently on the product. We cover the business part of the company – you rule the tech! And preferably you would be interested in also managing a tech team, as we grow (but it is not a must).

PRIMARY JOB TASKS

  • Coordinate and lead the app development
  • Build the architecture and infrastructure
  • Choose the tech-stack yourself
  • Plan and drive sprints, manage a small team hands-on, and code yourself
  • Implement user tracking based on KPIs set with the team
  • Work with designers to achieve a seamless UX and flow

THE PERSON

  • Full-stack developer
  • Proactive, self-driven and adaptable to a fast-paced startup environment
  • Take ownership, be structured and stick to deadlines, that you get to set yourself
  • Committed to the growth and success of the startup
  • Located in Copenhagen (Denmark)

WE OFFER

  • A full-time job with a competitive salary
  • Possibility for equity and co-founder position for the right candidate
  • Freedom to work independently and take a lot of initiative, and responsibility, for the product.
  • Being a part of a fun and active team in one of the startup hubs in Copenhagen.

We strongly believe in the power of teamwork, low hierarchy and transparency in the company. Are you ready join the rollercoaster ride of joining a startup on its way to international success? Then shoot us a message! 

Last but not least: We savor the moments of achievement and success, but there are just as many failures. But hey, “celebrate every step down the drain, with a bottle of champagne”!
