    We started life as 27partners, an agency building mobile apps to improve employee engagement in large enterprises. Over time we built up our backend platform to help us develop those apps more quickly and realised that other developers could benefit from this too: The StoryShare Platform was born. We raised investment and now work towards a world where every company builds their apps on our platform.

    We're looking for Frontend and Backend developers to help us make this dream a reality.

    The StoryShare platform itself is a headless CMS serving content via a REST API. It helps developers build better and faster by providing:

    • Autogenerated REST API.
    • Simple data modeling via graphical user interface.
    • Simplified and ready-tested authentication and security management.
    • Multiple authentication methods including SSO.
    • Easily enabled features including push notifications and site analytics.

    We also maintain:

    • Our "DataLayer" - a Redux library that caches data so our apps can perform quickly and work offline.
    • A React component library to fetch and render data from the platform.
    • create-storyshare-app - a bit like "Create React App" but for StoryShare!
    • "Love Your Work Apps" built as examples of how to develop using the StoryShare ecosystem.

    Current marketing focuses on the apps: Delivering communication & learning experiences that radically increase employee engagement. Can you help us bring the platform to the forefront?

    Why work for us?

    StoryShare is a great place to start, grow or develop your career. We're not just a consumer apps company; everything we do involves delivering uncompromising performance and potential through our platform.

At StoryShare, the right person isn’t always the one with the most experience. We are looking for people who are the right fit, embodying our values and work ethic.

    We're humble, we always respect and listen to others, but we're not afraid to challenge, especially when it comes to ourselves. We're all part of one big family who go above and beyond to provide solutions and not just present problems. Most importantly we have fun whilst we do it, because all of this together makes us happy!
