We’re building Glossy — an AI-powered life coach that helps people reduce anxiety, overcome procrastination, and build positive habits.
The MVP is live, early traction is strong, and we’ve already caught the attention of Bcombinator, one of Europe’s top startup accelerators.
We’re now assembling a lean, smart, mission-driven founding team — and we’re looking for a backend engineer to own our infrastructure and logic.
Who We’re Looking For
A self-directed Python/Django developer who wants to join an early-stage startup with a clear vision and big potential.
You’ll be our go-to person for backend architecture, API development, and AI tool integration.
Requirements
Strong experience with Django & Django REST Framework
Solid knowledge of PostgreSQL or similar databases
Experience with background task processing using Celery / Celery Beat
Familiarity with message brokers (e.g. Redis, RabbitMQ)
Experience with API design, authentication, and deployment
Ability to work independently and collaborate in a startup setting
English – intermediate+ (enough to communicate and collaborate)
Bonus Points
Experience with event-driven systems or Kafka
Experience with AI APIs, OpenAI, or Gemini
Familiarity with Firebase or mobile backend needs
Background in early-stage products or fast iterations
What We Offer
Equity-based role (no salary yet – pre-funding stage)
Key position in the founding team with real influence
Remote & flexible work style
Opportunity to help present the project to accelerators/investors
Future paid role after fundraising (we’re preparing for it)
If you’re looking for meaningful work, autonomy, and the chance to shape something from day one — we’d love to talk.
Message me directly or apply with your GitHub / portfolio and a short note.
