The opportunity

These lot have been my client for over 7 years, and they get better every day! They are on a mission to equip investors with the tools to steward their capital responsibly. What does that mean? - Millions of people contribute towards our investment system yet most people have no control or visibility about where their money is going and therefore no choice on the impact they can make with their money.

My friends have built an incredible platform which is changing the way voting is done, and done for good.

They're now scaling both their core platform and a brand-new AI product, which is a game changer!

We are hiring for 3-4 roles for the team. A fullstack engineer, 2 backend software engineers and a platform focused engineer.
