About Nubique:
Nubique is an early stage startup in the booking and business infrastructure for the hair and beauty sector. We provide a place to manage bookings, take payments, hold client records, and protect their diary from no-shows, while giving clients a trusted way to discover and book the professionals they want. We are pre-launch, London-first, and building for a UK hair and beauty sector worth £5.8bn.
Location: Remote, UK-based (London meet-ups when useful)
Commitment: Full-time
Package: Founding equity, as a co-founder alongside the existing team.
Role Description:
You will own the technical vision, architecture, and delivery of a two-sided marketplace spanning a mobile app and a cloud backend. This is a hands-on founding role: you write code, make the architecture calls, and set the technical direction, with nobody senior above you to escalate to. As we grow, you build and lead the team. You will:
- Own the platform end to end, from the React Native / Expo mobile app through to the Postgres backend, Edge Functions
- Design and ship the payments architecture
- Build a booking and availability engine that holds up under real-world scheduling: concurrency, cancellations, buffers, and edge cases.
- Keep client data secure and compliant, with watertight access control and UK GDPR obligations met by design.
- Set engineering standards for reliability and performance, and grow the team as we scale.
- Work directly with the founders on product and go-to-market, translating business goals into what gets built and in what order.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we're looking for:
- Production experience shipping full-stack products, ideally consumer-facing platforms or marketplaces.
- Strong with a mobile framework (React Native / Expo preferred) and a relational backend (Postgres / Supabase preferred, or the ability to pick it up fast).
- Hands-on payments integration experience, ideally Stripe Connect or an equivalent split-payment or marketplace setup.
- Sound judgement on secure, scalable architecture, and the confidence to make and defend decisions under uncertainty.
- Enough DevOps to own environments, CI, and releases without a dedicated ops person.
- The temperament of an owner: you move problems forward without being told, and you thrive with ambiguity and equity rather than a fixed spec and a salary.
- We want someone who is able to manage responsibilities and willing to listen and collaborate in a team. Students with the relevant experience are welcome also.

Nice to Have:
- Prior work on a booking or scheduling product, or another two-sided marketplace.
- Push notification infrastructure (Firebase).
- Design sensibility and a feel for UX at the early stage.
- Been early at a startup before.
The Fit:
You are part of the head team and have shared ownership of the outcome. We are looking for someone we would trust to make the right call while the rest of the team is heads-down elsewhere, and who wants to build something real in a sector that has never had proper infrastructure built for it.
