Full-Stack + TypeScript Engineer at Givingli

Givingli is a venture-backed gifting platform with both consumer and enterprise products. We're backed by Alexis Ohanian (Reddit co-founder) and Tobi Lutke (Shopify CEO). Our iOS app is an Apple Editors' Choice and Essential Lifestyle pick, named App of the Day 7 times, with 40,000+ five-star reviews.

On the consumer side, we make it easy to send beautifully designed digital gift cards. On the enterprise side, Givingli Pro helps organizations send branded digital gift cards for sales prospecting, employee recognition, and client engagement. We work with Fortune 500 companies and major brands.
