Job Description

The Petcare market is valued at around $240 Billion, and by 2027 projections suggest it will reach $350 Billion.

It's clear people love their pets!

Well, we love our pets too! That's why we are pioneering the pet wellness space, working with nutritionists and vets to produce the highest quality products for our little furry friends. But we need someone to join the founding team and help take our product to the next step!

Why now?

Dogs are our best friends, part of the family, and even an entry to parenthood for many. During the pandemic, millions of families became pet parents for the first time.

Like humans, dogs experience many health and wellbeing issues. Unfortunately, they can't talk about it. Navigating healthcare for your dog can sometimes be mind-boggling, and solutions can be generic. We are a holistic dog wellness company that offers personalized D2C supplements. We believe dogs are as unique and diverse as humans.

We are on a mission to offer human-grade healthcare for our furry friends, making pet parenting hassle-free and sustainable. We are an early-stage tech startup run by an established founder who has built and exited several businesses and has a strong background in CPG and personalized wellness technology.

Our investors include Founders Factory, one of Europe's hottest accelerators.

The Role

As part of the founding team, you will be instrumental in shaping the product and business strategy. You will own the tech strategy and manage day-to-day engineering execution. Looking ahead, you will be responsible for helping grow the team and set up the technical capabilities of the business for growth.


Interesting technical challenges include:
  • Building a digital retail marketplace with a modular microservice-based code base, enabling fast iterative development and experimentation.
  • Designing a secure and scalable API integration.
  • Platform integration with multiple best-in-class digital health providers, enabling capabilities to be exposed to 3rd parties.
Responsibilities include:
  • Taking charge of platform development, making key decisions on technical architecture.
  • Delivering the MVP, enabling us to test, iterate, and serve our growing membership base.
  • Ensuring the systems architecture and infrastructure is scalable and can support growth.
  • Feeding into product strategy and identifying opportunities to quickly deliver customer value.
You will have the following skills:
  • Demonstrated ability to deliver products in a tech startup environment.
  • Confidence over the full stack of web development, preferably Node.js and React for the frontend and AWS or GCP for infrastructure.
  • Ability to inspire and build a team.
  • Entrepreneurial spirit, flexibility, and willingness to work across a range of areas, with the grit to operate in a startup environment.
What's in it for you?
  • As part of the founding team, a significant equity position in the business.
  • A salary from the Founders Factory initial investment, meaning you don't have to worry about fundraising early on.
  • Autonomy to build and scale the product as you see fit.
  • Hands-on operational support from a team of smart and passionate people from Founders Factory.
  • Unparalleled access to FF partners and a wider network (for life!).
  • A unique opportunity to build a business that will scale.
