Lead Back-End & Co-Founder (Back-End)

Salary Competitive
Equity To be negotiated

Are you our back-end lead and co-founder?

We are seeking a talented developer, preferably with strong back-end knowledge, to become part of our team as a co-founder. You will work directly with our CEO, become a core part of the team and be involved in every part of building and scaling Mindcare.

Mindcare has a strong team of psychology specialists, business developers and investors on board. You'll hit the ground running with a secure and steady income along with generous stock options.

Together we'll build groundbreaking science-based technology that will change psychological treatment and have a profound impact on people’s lives.


Need to have

  • 3+ years of experience with back-end development.

  • Strong interest in programming and an appetite for learning.

  • Basic knowledge about secure development.

  • An entrepreneurial mindset: starting something new isn't for everyone – and that's totally fine. This position is best suited for someone who gets excited about new ideas and gets inspired by building a company and a product from the ground up.


Nice to have

  • Experience with cyber security and/or development of health products. If you have worked with EPJ systems or the like previously that's a plus (but not a must).

  • Machine learning and artificial intelligence: several of our planned features and innovations will require machine learning. If this is something you're interested in, that's great!

  • Start-up experience. Have you been involved in a start-up before or are you tinkering with your own projects on the side? We believe that is a big plus!


What you'll get

  • Salary + stock options

  • Flexible working location and hours (but you should live in the greater Oslo region)

  • Five weeks vacation

  • Great power and great responsibility

  • Office in the heart of Oslo at our partner Iterate. You'll become part of a vibrant community of talented developers and designers.


What you’ll do

  • Stake the course for the company both short-term and long-term together with our CEO.

  • Develop groundbreaking mental health innovations in collaboration with psychology specialists.

  • Develop a world class SaaS for psychologists combining everything from online booking and health payments to EPJ and integrations in a sleek and user friendly product.

  • Build our in-house tech team.

  • Make sure all code is up to your standards.

  • Iterative development sprints based on real life feedback from our pilot clinics and psychologists.

  • …and probably a whole lot more you and the CEO decides are important for us to succeed.


Application process

  1. Send us a short cover letter where you tell us a bit about yourself, add your CV and any other links you may find relevant, e.g. to your codepens, personal website, or other projects.

  2. We invite you for a first chat to get to know you better, usually via video call.

  3. We schedule a “proper” interview where you will be able to meet more members of the team.

  4. If we like each other, we'd like you to start as soon as you possible. Preferably by October or November.
