Shortform

Do you like reading non-fiction books? Do you find yourself forgetting what you read days later, and feeling like you never absorbed the book's lessons? Shortform is a book summary product that aims to make ideas actionable. It differs from existing book summary products in 3 major ways: 1) an emphasis on applying the lessons from books, through interactive exercises 2) high-quality summaries, with in-depth chapter by chapter summaries 3) building a community of learners who support each other to apply the lessons from books. Company status: We're in early development. The product roadmap is clear and we're building our engineering team. Shortform is seed-funded by the founder, who has built multiple bootstrapped and profitable companies. About the role: Ideally you're fullstack on the web, and comfortable on both front-end and back-end. Experience building mobile apps is a plus. Position is remote (current team is in Boston and Chicago). Fulltime / parttime roles available. We're able to pay competitive market salaries (i.e. not decreased by equity).
