More About The Full-stack Engineer Role At Ponnd
PONND isn’t another social network. It’s one platform designed to help professionals connect, collaborate, and grow across every stage of their career. A modular toolkit that replaces fragmented, outdated systems with one curated experience.
People don’t just want jobs. They want to belong. To feel seen. To collaborate with others who get it. Career is identity. And identity deserves better tools.
We’re in build mode: no large team, no layers of process. You’ll work directly with the two co-founders (Remi and Bella) to take PONND from MVP to V1 and far beyond. Shaping what the future of PONND looks and feels like. If you’re excited by creative tech, purpose-driven work and building something meaningful from the ground up, keep reading.
The Role
We’re looking for a full-stack engineer to join us at day zero. You’ll lead product development across the stack and help define how PONND is built, shipped, and scaled.
Build features that power intentional, career-shaping connections
Make key decisions on architecture, infrastructure, and tooling
Ship fast, test often, and iterate with real users
Set up scalable systems and clean processes
Help define what engineering at PONND looks like
We’re open to shaping the scope and setup of this role around the right person. If you’re excited by the mission, let’s talk.
About You
Have a track record with building products in small teams or startups
Strong product mindset
Write clean, scalable code and value thoughtful collaboration
Comfortable across the stack (and getting scrappy)
Excited to go from 0 → 1, and push from 1 → 100
Care deeply about UX, even if you’re not a designer
Nice To Have (not Required)
Experience with auth systems, scalable backends, real-time features
Built or managed API integrations
Mobile-first thinking
Built modular systems or frameworks before
Our Pitch To You
A meaningful build from the ground up
Role ownership and real influence
Equity options. We want you in this long-term
Hybrid work flexibility
Founders who are community obsessed
A chance to shape a brand with cultural weight
Interested?
Drop us a line. Portfolio, LinkedIn, GitHub, a handwritten note, whatever. If you're excited by the problem and the platform, we want to hear from you.
Email: connect@ponnd.app
Before we jump into the responsibilities of the role. No matter what you come in knowing, you’ll be learning new things all the time and the Ponnd team will be there to support your growth.
🟢 Please consider applying even if you don't meet 100% of what’s outlined 🟢
Key Responsibilities
A Final Note: This is a role with Ponnd not with Hatch.
