Hello there!
This is not your typical job-post, because guess what, we’re not a typical company. You see, at Likvido, we’re about to face some VERY interesting challenges, and we need you on our team to absolutely smash those challenges.
Between you and me, since we launched Likvido in April 2018, we’ve absolutely killed it. Not only do we now have 300 customers - among many of the hottest startups and scaleups in Denmark - we also managed to get very serious funding, have very good unit economics and build a really cool technical platform. However, we’re just getting started. In 2019, we not only need to 10x our revenue, but we also need to 100x our volume on our platform. And guess what? In 2020 we need to do the same again.
So what are we doing?
We’re solving the biggest reason for companies going bankrupt in Europe. You see, 19% of all invoices are paid late, and roughly half of all bankruptcies are caused by lack of cash.
Likvido is defining a new category we’re calling a “customer payment system”. Today you integrate Likvido with your accounting system, and then we automate sending out invoices, send our reminders, start debt collection and post back to the accounting system. Looking ahead, we will add financial products, give the whole organization access to our system and much more. In brief, we help companies get paid - on time - and forecast their cash flow.
Which brings me back to YOU. We need you.
Who are you:
We’re a quite realistic bunch at Likvido: you don’t need 8 years of experience in some JavaScript framework that was invented in 2015...
Instead, we’re looking for someone who:
Our dream candidate can come from many backgrounds. Our dream candidate has a mix of a solid technical education and some years out in the real world. Speaking Danish is a plus.
We, unfortunately, don’t allow remote work for this job. I personally love remote work, but the whole background for this job is that we need someone who can work from our Copenhagen office.
The job:
Our platform & team:
The platform is ~12 months old. We have a big monolith ASP.NET MVC application, combined with 3 solid ASP.NET Core microservices. Everything is hosted in Azure and Github, and we use many of the Azure products, including Azure DevOps. Yeah, we’re a startup, but we do have hundreds and hundreds of tests.
The platform is built by me, the author (you thought it was an HR person writing all along, didn’t you?). I’ve studied at the Technical University of Denmark, and I have built this kind of stuff before - and trust me - the platform is solid and not burning.
We also use 7 freelancers in Ukraine & Russia. Some are full-time, some are not. When it comes to outsourcing, I’m a bit of an elitist. I don’t hire people with less than 5 years of experience, so we only have seniors on the outsourcing team.
The job:
The goal for 2019, will be scale the platform to allow for 100x volume & mature the platform. By maturing, it usually means going from “1 to N”. Examples of projects in 2019:
Your job, starting out, will be implementing 100% of the time. However, during 2019, the goal is you will get 2-4 developers in Ukraine/Russia to report to you. You’re still expected to implement at least 60-70% of the time, and rest of time making issues, reviewing pull requests and discussing technical solutions.
Personally, I will also code and run my own team outsourced team. However, I will put my focus on going from “0 to 1” and implement new things such as credit ratings, financial products, BI and machine learning.
Our offering:
To sum it up, we offer a role where:
In terms of practicalities we offer:
And most important - I can guarantee: this is going to be one hell of a journey.
Interested:
I’d love to hear from you!
No need to make some crazy application letter or whatever. Just send me an email to lars@likvido.dk or call 61793650 (text me, if I don’t take it .. I suck at picking up the phone...). It would be cool if you attach a CV or link to LinkedIn, but absolutely not a requirement.
SO: Apply and then we will find out if we’re a match :)
