Napper is a small startup with big ambitions, based in Stockholm. Our mission is to make sure each parent goes to bed at night feeling like the best parent in the world. We accomplish that by making sure they get the sleep and time for recreation they need to be their best selves in every interaction with their children.
As a company, we’re a rapidly growing, profitable subscription app business destined to become the next stellar app to emerge out of Sweden. We have a solid relationship with Apple and are an Editors’ Choice app. Napper has also been App of the Day in most European countries.
All-in-all, Napper has helped over a quarter of a million families get better sleep to date - now we need you to take it to the next level.
We are looking for a superstar full-stack developer (leaning more into the front-end side of things). You should therefore have a vast background in React Native and have worked with Node.js in the past, preferably on AWS. As Napper is an app heavily focusing on user experience and design, we’d like you to know your way around react-native-reanimated and react-native-skia. If you’re interested in artificial intelligence and have some experience with it, that’s a major plus, but not a requirement.
What IS crucial is that you have high ambitions, get things done, and share the same urge to experiment and learn as we founders do. You also have to love finding your own way forward and solving problems on your own. At Napper, we want you to tell us what you need, rather than asking us to tell you what to do.
What you will be doing
You will be the lead developer on all our projects. Your work will mainly focus on the app and related cloud functionality, but you might also be involved in the development of our website. Since you’ll be one of the first people to join Napper, there is a good chance your role will grow into something bigger pretty quickly.
Our technology stack includes (but not limited to)...
React Native (TypeScript)AWS (DynamoDB, Lambda, Athena, SageMaker, Cognito)
NextJS (web)
Formal skills and experience required
Minimum 3 years of experience with React Native, preferably 5Experience with Node.js and AWS
Standard web development proficiency (HTML, React, CSS)
