FOBO (YC S11) – Typescript, Web – Efficient market for local used goods

1 points by ed ↗ HN
We’re a small team of developers rethinking the way people buy and sell things locally. We're building a product in a multi-billion dollar market, and are well on our way to profitability ($1M run-rate after only 6 weeks).

We're built on Parse, with a native iOS client, and use Haskell, typescript and coffeescript on the backend. We're looking for talented individuals with experience or interest in this stack. Client-side web will be our most immediate engineering hire, so experience with Backbone, ember, etc., preferred.

This is a key technical hire, with significant equity and lots of room to influence the strategic direction of the company. The best fit will probably be someone hoping to be a technical founder in their next role.

FOBO has raised $1.6M from a number of top-tier investors such as YC, Kevin Rose, Dave Morin, Joshua Schachter, Chris Sacca, Tim Ferris, Index, Greylock, et al., based in San Francisco's mission district. If you'd like to hear more please send your github profile or something you've built to jobs@fobo.net, or visit us at http://www.fobo.net
