Junior Frontend Engineer London, England
Job description
We're a well-funded Tech scaleup in Europe and Asia with a mission to make the world fairer and more productive. We are doing this by making assets more transparent, trustworthy and accessible - starting with real estate. Incomes have stagnated, so more access to high value assets like real estate = less wealth inequality. We have first mover advantage!
Our CEO and co-founder Moubin was previously at McKinsey and private equity firm APAX, whilst our CTO and co-founder Misrab is a Stanford Computer Scientist who scaled the data team at Gojek, a Tech unicorn in Asia. Listen to a podcast of Moubin speaking with our investors QED about how we're disrupting asset ownership!
Our values sit at the core of GetGround - no BS, pursuit of excellence, feedback obsession and healthy ego.
GetGround in numbers:
- 85 GetGrounders (ex Google, Meta, Deliveroo etc)
- £1Bn+ of assets being added onto our platform annually
- 15,000+ users across 70 countries, with a 10% market share already
- Global hubs (UK, Portugal, Hong Kong, Singapore)
