🌍 Developer Role at SecondSale: Be Part of Fashion's Sustainable Revolution

We believe in a world where fashion's sustainability is backed by concrete data. Our SaaS bridges the gap between fashion brands and the second-hand market, providing crucial insights that redefine how brands think about sustainability.

Role Overview:

We are on the hunt for a dedicated developer who's ready to bring our vision to life. As our first hire, you'll be a crucial part of our story, with the potential to join as a co-founder or as a technical advisor as the startup grows.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop and implement our prototype or MVP from scratch: A web-based dashboard for fashion brands to understand how their clothing performs in the second-hand market in fashion resale platforms. The main development tasks are:
- Ingest: Understand API data structures and utilize endpoints to fetch data from partners, handle rate limits, and manage API keys or authentication tokens in the 5 to 7-figure API calls per day.
- Normalize, clean, and map: Ensure data from all sources follows a consistent format, handle missing values, outliers, or data; and map to a unified schema. This might involve creating a common key or identifier to join data.
- Storage: Manage an appropriate database and set up processes to regularly insert or update data to maintain integrity.
- Analytics: Run simple descriptive analytics on top of data for clients to access in a web interface; including using plots, charts, and heatmaps to visualize trends, distributions, and relationships.
- Collaborate closely with our founder, and talk to beta clients and partners to shape the direction of our product.
There is an option for onboarding a consultant short-term if you do not have experience in all facets of the development.

Requirements:

Proficient in modern software languages such as the MEAN or MERN stack.
Experience with both REST API and GraphQL.
Familiarity with HTML, CSS and tools for setting up a dashboard (nice to have).
Comfortable with building an MVP or prototype project from the ground up, and knowing its limitations.

About You:

You're driven by making the world a better place through digital innovation and data.
You are curious about the potential of a data layer in an industry that is traditionally analog.
You are perhaps a consultant, student, or have been in a full-time dev job for a handful of years where you can change your contract to work 1 or 2 days a week on a startup while keeping your job.
Entrepreneurial spirit? Check. Risk-taker? Check. Thrive in the dynamic environment of an early-stage startup? Absolutely.

Compensation, Commitment & Practicalities:

Part-time role: 10-20 hours per week.
Equity compensation is to be expected, details depending on candidate.
Compensation: 150 DKK to 250 DKK per hour (negotiable).
Immediate start date available.
Open to work with a mix of remote and working together.

Work alongside a Founder with:

Strong business and sustainability acumen, some experience in fashion tech.
Experience in product management.
Design proficiency in Figma and Webflow.
A clear vision backed by an understanding of software development and data.

🌍 What We Do: We're all about giving fashion brands real data on resale. 🌱 Why It Matters: Clothing is the 4th most polluting industry worldwide. Resale is the best way to act sustainably - every time a piece of clothing is resold, its lifetime extends, reducing carbon footprints. The problem is fashion brands have no idea how much of their apparel is resold, who buys and sells, at what price, etc. 💁🏼‍♀️ Our Value Prop: SecondSale provide brands unparalleled insights into (re)used clothing. We're helping brands not only reduce their environmental impact but also communicate about their sustainability initiatives without greenwashing. 📊 Our Offerings: A comprehensive dashboard that makes sense of a brand's resale sustainability impact. From detailed CO2-saving overviews to customized reports that can be directly inserted into CSR statements, our platform offers actionable insights, all backed by real-time data from fashion resale platforms. 💬 What beta-customers are saying: "SecondSale can help us encourage our community to shop more responsibly, and give us a way to talk about concrete sustainability outcomes backed by real data, and that's really exciting for us." /Head of CSR at a prominent Danish fashion brand. 🚀 Where we are at: We've validated the idea with clients, have a business plan and design in place. Next step for us is an MVP, partnerships and eventually fundraising. We're on a mission to increase second-hand, redefine how brands approach sustainability in fashion. 💡 What's the potential (thanks for reading this far): Here's the thing. The fashion industry is hopelessly outdated when it comes to data. At the same time, there is a slew of new sustainability legislation coming from EU right now. And customers are increasingly turning to second-hand platforms. Beyond a dashboard, fashion brands need a solution to connect them to buyers and sellers on second-hand platforms. To add a customer touchpoint on resale sites that have a serious amount of traffic. Eventually, that's where we come in. If you want to be part of this, reach out!
