**The Opportunity**

Our client is a marketplace focused on healthcare  products and other solutions to meet the needs of seniors. They have already received $30 M in the first round of funding and have sold about 50 million units of their flagship product. 

We are looking for an energetic person to join our team and work alongside this rapidly growing brand. 

You’ll experience what it’s like to support and evolve the complex product and will face real challenges related to application scaling, 24/7 availability, user feedback processing and feature complexity. 

In addition to that, you’ll enjoy an inspiring development process heavily powered by DevOps, engineering practices and a feature-ownership approach. The product is already in production but is still in a very active development phase.  Therefore, we will work on new feature development, drive new feature design and spend time improving the existing solution based on the client’s feedback.
Our team is based in Kyiv, and we’d love to meet you!
