Software engineer co-founder to Wearables startup

1 week ago

København, Denmark The HubDanske Bank Full time

Hi there. We are dQmetrics, and we are looking for a software engineer who can lead our software development and take our app and cloud setup to the next level.

We are developing a wearable wristband that can auto-track the calories consumed - without manual meal registration. The goal is to make lasting weight change possible for slightly obese individuals. We have working prototypes, and we just finished our proof of technology where we showed that the concept works in laboratory settings. Now we are preparing for closed customer testing, where test persons will wear our prototype as a normal smartwatch in real-world settings. To do this, we need your help to finalize the next version of our app, so we can collect data from our test persons via the app. There will also be initial front-end development involved, so the test persons can enter information and get back predictions of their calorie intake.

We are looking to raise our first investment round in the coming 3-6 months. When we raise our first round, we can offer equity and a salary that will be able to sustain you. In the meantime, we expect the position to be part-time with around 5 to 20 hours per week. During this period, you will start earning vested equity, but the position will be unpaid. We are quite flexible around the part-time period and take your situation into account.

What’s in it for you?

  • Impactful Work: We are pushing the technology frontier with a new product that can make a real difference for people living with obesity.
  • Continuous Growth: Your work will directly influence how users interact with our wearable technology, and you get ownership and influence over the entire software stack.
  • Foundation of Product Value and Company Success: Our software is enabling us to deliver meaningful benefits to our users. It plays a pivotal role in how we connect with, engage, and provide value to our customers.
  • Collaborative Culture: Thrive in a team that cares. Our environment is built on collaboration, mutual respect, and a shared passion for innovation.
  • Multidisciplinary Team: Being in the wearable space, you get to work at the intersection between Hardware, Software, Machine Learning, and the Health Sciences.

About the role:

The first version of our app is 90-95% complete. The front end is written in Dart (Flutter), and the back end is written in Python. Your first step will be to finish the app so we can collect data via the app. The next step will be to get the app ready for closed customer testing, which means implementing basic UX and delivering calorie predictions to the user via the app.

Besides the app, we also have a cloud environment and a database. You will also be working on maintaining a smooth and safe connection between our hardware prototype, the app, the cloud environment, and our database.

In the short term, we are looking for someone who can make things work fast and iterate to improve things as we scale and grow our software stack. As our company grows, you’ll have the chance to shape your future role based on your interests—whether that means leading our software stack, focusing on app or cloud development, or carving out a new path that aligns with your passions and strengths.

About dQmetrics:

We’re an early-stage deep tech startup, passionate about developing the next generation of wearables. We believe the wearables industry is just getting started, and that there is a huge market opportunity in moving away from traditional vital sign sensors and expanding the range of sensors to unlock the secrets of the human body. Currently, we are a team of two. We have the business background and the hardware engineer profile covered. Besides you, we are looking to onboard a Machine Learning engineer.

Preferred skills:

  • Experience with rapid prototyping and iterative development: We’re looking for someone who can quickly turn ideas into functional prototypes and continuously improve them.
  • Basic understanding of app architecture and design patterns.
  • Experience with Python.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and an analytical mindset.
  • Eagerness to learn and a proactive attitude.
  • Works well in a team.

Nice to have:

  • Experience with software integrations to hardware devices.
  • Basic understanding of cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud).
  • General knowledge about GitLab is a plus.

Are you the co-founder we are looking for?

Then, we would love to hear from you. Applications are reviewed continuously.
