Fika is a tech startup focused on consumer apps in the social space where we leverage state-of-the-art AI with innovative product ideas. We strongly believe in creating products and experiences in Vietnam for Vietnamese with Vietnamese teams that can rival tech giants worldwide. Our first app Fika, the AI dating app, has garnered over 1.6M downloads in just over a year on a shoestring budget thanks to our focus on users’ needs and leveraging our great technology. While we will continue developing Fika and begin the revenue/growth stage, we have seen an opportunity that we cannot miss with Leka, our alternative social app launching in January.

If you are someone who enjoys a tech-oriented environment that values users’ needs over subpar short-term business choices, then Fika is definitely the best place for you to catapult your career further. We are an exciting bunch of majority twenty-somethings with the mindset to learn things quickly and adapt to everyday challenges that this industry may throw at us.

• At least 1 year of experience as a frontend developer building websites
• At least 1 year of experience using JavaScript-based languages and frameworks (Typescript, React, Angular, etc.)
• Worked in an agile environment through sprints

You will get tasks directly from the CTO and work with the design team when building UIs for our websites.
