Gleam Engineering Leader

We’ve built a video-based dating app that eliminates 'making the first move.' It gets straight to the date via video chat, so you get to know the person right away, and don't paint a completely different picture of them in your head via texting. We've solved the problem of endless swiping, wasting time with matches that don't turn into dates, and greatly reduces the likelihood of harassment for women.

We need an engineering leader experienced in building apps that can scale. You will work with a fast paced startup building a team, solving large technical challenges, and building exciting features that scale. MUST BE LOCATED IN THE US, and available to start immediately.
