About Tripnary

-----------------------------

Tripnary (http://www.tripnary.com; http://angel.co/tripnary) is a seed-funded, an early stage travel startup based in Chicago. We are focused on building a disruptive mobile/web app that helps travelers save and organize the places they want to see and be ready for their next vacation. We want to eliminate the clutter of spreadsheets, bookmarks, emails, etc. that are currently used to document travel plans and provide an easy way to collect all the places you find around the web in one app and create your own itinerary with built-in travel tools. We have a slick web app (currently in private beta) with a jaw-dropping design that blows away everyone who sees it. We have validated the concept with critical feedback from travel bloggers, destination experts, and enthusiasts. We are continuously evolving the product and building the next generation of the app that can be best described as Pinterest travel boards meets Kayak. We work out of 1871, the coolest co-working space for the city’s digital startups.

-----------------------------

About the role

-----------------------------

Tripnary is seeking a highly motivated visionary with experience in building web apps to join the team. As a partner, you will

-- Collaborate with the founders to refine and execute on the Tripnary vision.

What Tripnary offers

-----------------------------

Tripnary promises a fun, energetic, and fast-paced startup environment and the opportunity to be an early member of a growing team of passionate and tight-knit group of young entrepreneurs with a vision. Because we are a startup, everyone on the team is fully involved on multiple levels. This allows you to gain a great deal of experience both within and beyond your specific area of expertise as everyone works cohesively to accomplish a greater goal. The founder brings over a decade of combined experience with software development and technology businesses delivering million-dollar software products. You will be coming into a very goal-oriented, technically grounded team. We promise exciting challenges, a broad range of experiences across a variety of projects and the chance to make a difference while working in a casual but fast-paced setting. Just remember to work hard and party harder (or in our case, travel farther). Our vacation policy is "take some" (just make sure to bring back a fridge magnet from your adventures!).

Roundtown is a 6-person startup. We've built a Web site (http://roundtown.com) that lists events (concerts, plays, movies, sports games, everything else) happening everywhere. We just launched in May - check it out! Our site is still an early beta, and we want to add many more features as we grow our user base this year. Our goal is nothing less than to become the top destination online for finding out what's going on anywhere.

We are looking to add a couple of software engineers to our team. You should be a proficient programmer who's enthusiastic about joining a fast-moving startup environment. We're using Scala, Play, Slick, Postgres, Angular and Bootstrap. You should already know at least some of these technologies, or be able to learn them very quickly. Knowledge of machine learning would be a big plus as well.

We're in a cool co-working space right near Central Square. Unlike some startups, we can offer you a real salary plus early-stage stock options in our venture.

By the way, some things we'll be working on in the near future include:

- Mobile apps for iOS and Android - Social event sharing - Crawling the Web to find more events than we have today - Automatic event categorization - Personalized event recommendations - Lots more polish and glitter

Sound like a fit? Yeehaw - send your resume to jobs@roundtown.com .
