GoGoGrandparent (YC S16) is hiring back end engineers

GoGoGrandparent, a concierge service for seniors, is seeking a Senior Backend Engineer with expertise in Node.js and TypeScript. The company's mission is to help older adults live independently in their homes for as long as possible by tailoring existing on-demand apps to their specific needs. The ideal candidate will design, build, and maintain scalable backend systems, collaborate closely with product and project managers, and continuously improve the codebase through thoughtful refactoring.

They will work across the full development lifecycle, ensuring reliability and performance in production. The company is profitable, has been around since 2016, and has not raised venture capital financing. They are looking for someone who takes ownership of their work, writes clean and maintainable code, and contributes to system architecture decisions.

With the aging population growing, GoGo aims to become the 'management layer' for the things older adults struggle with as they age, offering them independence without having to move out of their homes.
