A suggestion in the app: a coffee round at a café 330 m away, on the map of Chemnitz, with the button “I’m in”; below it “Start something yourself”

Why we exist.

The best moments are unplanned. Yet today “spontaneous” often means “complicated”: calendars full, friends busy, and you end up at home again. Spontanoo shows what is starting near you right now and brings you together in small groups with people who are free too.

In the storesThe app is in the App Store and on Google Play.
Beta in ChemnitzThe beta is running in Chemnitz. This is where Spontanoo was founded.
Business ManagerHosts like bars, cafés and venues use it to give those meetups a place.

Our mission

The activity’s room: the group chat, a vote and the question from Spontanoo “Are you on your way?” with the button “On my way”

The role

Spontanoo suggests what fits a person today and brings small groups together. Good suggestions need good data.

What you will do

Build data pipelines that prepare product data reliably and traceably.
Show what works in the app and what does not, with analyses the team trusts.
Improve the quality of our suggestions and measure whether a change really helps.
Work closely with the backend, which runs on Node.js and PostgreSQL.
Handle personal data with care and think about privacy from the start.

What you bring

Experience in data engineering or applied machine learning.
Very good Python and SQL.
You have built analyses that decisions were actually based on.
You can tell when a simple method is enough and when a model is worth it.
You explain numbers so that non-engineers can work with them.

What to expect

An early stage: you define how we work with data.
Real ownership and short lines in a small team.
A live product in the stores whose suggestions people in Chemnitz see every day.
Hybrid work, with Chemnitz as our base.

How we work.

Three lines from our manifesto. They are not hanging on a wall, we work by them.

Output
> Hours.

We don't care when you work or where you are. As long as you deliver, you're free. 9-to-5 is dead.

Radical Truth.

We're honest with each other. Even when it hurts. That's the only way we grow. No “sandwich feedback”, straight talk.

Obsessed with Users.

We don't build for ourselves. We build for the people who want to celebrate life. Every feature has to make real life better, otherwise it doesn't belong in the app.
