Job description

Kindred is a members-only home swapping network that unlocks the ability to live a travel-rich lifestyle through the power of community. By exchanging primary residences with trusted peers, renters and owners alike can match with Kindred spirits and explore new destinations without breaking the bank.

We are on a mission to build a sharing economy that lives up to the name, and we’ve raised significant capital from some of the best investors in Silicon Valley, including Index Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, New Enterprise Associates, Bessemer Venture Partners, Caffeinated Capital, Elad Gil, and the founders of Opendoor, Figma, ClassPass, Clubhouse, Divvy, Gem, and Homebound.

The co-founders are proven leaders from the early team at proptech company Opendoor ($15B+ exit) and have each separately built and scaled products that today do $1B+ annual revenue combined.

We’re looking for the world’s top builders, executors, and believers to join us on this ride.

You can learn more about us in Forbes and TechCrunch.

The Role:

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Software Engineer with deep expertise in building dynamic, consumer-facing applications using both React for web and React Native for mobile. As one of our early engineering hires, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping our product across platforms and have the chance to significantly influence our technical roadmap. You’ll be a key player bridging our web and mobile experiences, ensuring a cohesive and high-quality user journey. We’re looking for a thought partner motivated by the opportunity to build an iconic consumer product that will shape the future of travel.

You Will:

Serve as a technology leader, contributing to key decisions regarding tech stack and strategy across both web (Next.js) and mobile (React Native) development.
Work directly with the co-founders, CTO, product designers, and fellow engineers to build and iterate on the Kindred platform.
Architect, build, test, and scale features across our Next.js web application and React Native mobile app.
Develop reusable UI components and contribute to our cross-platform design system thinking.
Optimize applications for performance, scalability, and responsiveness on both web and mobile.
Integrate with backend APIs, ensuring seamless data flow and user experience.
Help establish and grow our engineering organization, including mentoring future engineers.
Have access to our bench of world-class technical advisors and angels for mentorship and support as needed.
