I am not going to bullshit you working at a startup means a lot of hard work, for little to no pay, with a 90% chance that the idea you are working on will fail. This being said being a part of a startup team you will experience some of the greatest personal growth that you could ever achieve in a workplace. If you are looking for something more then just a line on your resume then Lokalist is a perfect opportunity for you to make an impact at an early stage startup. Plus we have free pastries.
WHO ARE WE?
Lokalist is an early stage startup that is preparing for our launch to the general public before Summer. We are a platform that uses innovations in machine learning and data science to help people determine the market price for used goods locally. If you apply we have a quite fast-paced hiring process and most decisions take only a week from application to final decision.
WHAT DO WE NEED?
Working in a startup environment can be stressful and to be honest a lot of hard work for little to no compensation. The upside is that you will be on the ground level of something that has the potential to be huge. We are looking for people who believe in what we are trying to do and want to be able to see their impact on the vision and growth of the project, developing themselves together with the company.
Ideally, you are someone who is passionate about programming and excited by the opportunity to build a real product from scratch. You should be self-motivated and have a passion for or experience working with React/Javascript based programming. An eye for and to ability to style a responsive design with JSS or SCSS is a huge plus.
Finally, I am looking for someone who we could build a company with. A person who challenges the team to be our best, and motivates us when the going gets tough. Technical skills are a must, but more important is the ability to be a right-hand man (or woman) on this adventure.
You are a good fit if you ...
WHAT CAN WE GIVE YOU?
One of the most important questions we feel most companies forget to ask is what can we do for you. We are asking you to share with us talents that you have built up over many years to make our lives easier and our brand stronger. For each person this answer is different but it is our personal mission as a small startup to provide value to every team member in a way that is unique to them. If you can provide us what we need and we can provide you what you need then we are sure to be a good match professionally.
OUR INTERVIEW IS ABOUT TEAM FIT
In a startup even more important than your skillsets is the team fit. That being said the interview is an informal introduction to our team and the project. We grab a coffee or a beer (your choice), then we talk a bit about the idea and listen to your thoughts about it. We will ask you if you have any previous work to show off, and then discuss a bit about what we can do for you. Finally, we will promise to give you a decision within a week.
If what we are doing sounds interesting to you please give us a call at +45 9111 3247 or send an email to tegan@lokalist.dk and be sure to apply! I look forward to meeting with you soon :)
