Original posting

Sitch App | Engineering Lead | NYC-area HYBRID (2 days/week in Brooklyn) | Full-time | Python + Django + Flutter + Rust Sitch is a new type of concierge dating app. We're using AI + Humans to ask you questions, get to know you, then help you find love. We're a concierge matchmaker but we don't call ourselves that and we don't charge the obscene prices that matchmakers charge. One of our metrics is how little time you spend in the app. We're explicitly opposed to the dopamine-fueled mini-game doomswiping of 'traditional' dating apps which cynically monetizes desperation. * We're top-tier VC funded, small team of 2 cofounders (Snapchat, Bumble) and 3 engineers, based in NYC. * Stack is Django, OpenAI, Flutter, Rust for Chat infrastructure. * Looking for a Sr. Eng who is an all-arounder and wants to eventually manage. Backend more important than front-end code, but if can also work on client code (or want to learn) that would be ideal. * 2 days/week in person, in Brooklyn, and the rest remote. We strongly prefer NYC area candidates. See our "corporate" (hah!) site at https://unusual.inc, and our app site at https://joinsitch.com, and feel free to send me a note at chad@unusual.inc
