Would you like to be a part of a start-up? And would you like to redesign the whole experience around dating in a way that has never been done before? We are in the business of changing the world of dating by providing the date and time to meet already when you match. No texting needed (if you do not want to). It is based on scientifically proven ways of increasing the chance for real romantic experiences to evolve. We aim to disrupt the industry, city by city, country by country.

Krown is looking for a Laravel / PHP developer to join our development team in Copenhagen (You can be remote). The main requirement for you is to have technical background / knowledge and passion about development either in University Projects / Professional Experience or even personal projects. Your focus will be on back-end development working on our server in close collaboration with the front-enders.

Requirements:

• Experience with development

• Experience with at least one of the following: PHP Laravel

• Understanding of software lifecycle processes

• Hard working and willingness to learn

Bonus:

• Linux

• SQL databases

You as a person:

• You take responsibility for your tasks

• You are willing to learn

• You are passionate for coding

You will be a part of the idea creation process, taking Krown into the second beta stage. We have almost finished building our second MVP, but we still need to work on our technical setup and we welcome changes and input.

The business took off when launching our last beta, a bit too quick. About 1500 users in a week through organic growth. It was too much for the servers to handle and we did not have a dedicated IT person by the time to handle the growth.

We like a casual, fun work environment and grabbing a beer to kick back at the end of the week. Our growth will be done as by starting part time and then going full time when the next test proves traction again. We have an open communication working actively with feedback, as we always want to learn and improve ourselves. We can contribute with knowledge about strategy, management, coding, running a business and developing business impact.

If you prove to be a great success in the internship then we may have growth opportunities for you.

The business:

We believe that dating should go on in the real world, not in the digital, so we are making it easier to meet, driving people from the digital into analog meetings. Krown is a dating app where you swipe other people who are going to the same events as you are attending. So if you are going to the same place at the same time, why not go together? We have unpublished neuroscientific knowledge that can give us the edge in changing peoples behaviour towards creating successful dates in the real world.    Krown is a freemium experience where most value is provided to everyone and those extra features that can get you the extra mile, will be paid. It was founded in 2016. We have a close to fully working MVP but it needs some architectural care to scale perfectly. Currently we are improving the platform, but Krown still needs some architectural love before it is ready for our users.

Our three sentence pitch:

We build a dating network that differentiates by user experience using pre-planned events as a platform to set the meeting up. Dates will take place at events that you already plan to attend, and therefore the dating network naturally connects places across geography allowing a progressive growth plan. The dating network is defensible through network effects.
