We are building a platform for interest-based online communities. We strive to create a platform filled with dynamic discussions. On one end, we are enabling the community leaders to start, grow, and manage their communities without any hassle; One the other end, we are providing the community participants the best experience to express themselves and connect with others.
Right now, we have 15 people in our engineering team. We encourage our engineers to explore and evaluate new technologies. We work together to create learning opportunities for everyone through code reviews, bi-weekly tech talks, algorithm lunches, and internal hackathons.
