Work with NousLib — one of Europe’s fastest-growing dating platforms
About the Opportunity
NousLib is not just another dating app. With over 2.5 million users , triple-digit growth, and a place in the Top 10 Lifestyle Apps in France , they’re reshaping how open-minded people connect.
As part of their remote-first tech team via Workana Premium , you’ll join as a Senior Ruby on Rails Developer and lead feature work that touches both product and platform. The app is built on Rails with a sleek mobile webview — and it’s scaling fast across Europe, Japan, and the UK.
What You’ll Build
Your first months will focus on two high-impact projects :
- A custom in-house customer service platform (think Zendesk, rebuilt for the privacy-sensitive needs of a dating app)
- A story-based matching feature where users connect through shared fantasies — match on desire, not looks.
Both projects will stretch your backend muscles and offer plenty of room to improve architecture, performance, and team processes.
