The posting

ABOUT VOODOO

Founded in 2013, Voodoo is a tech company that creates mobile games and apps with a mission to entertain the world. Gathering 800 employees, 7 billion downloads, and over 200 million active users, Voodoo is the #3 mobile publisher worldwide in terms of downloads after Google and Meta. Our portfolio includes chart-topping games like Mob Control and Block Jam, alongside popular apps such as BeReal and Wizz.

TEAM

BeReal stands for authenticity in social media: one notification a day, unfiltered photos and videos, real friends. 40M+ people use BeReal every month, and they all post at the same moment. Since joining Voodoo, BeReal has returned to growth with a healthy business model and $50M in revenue this year. The opportunity is clear: people want an alternative to Instagram and TikTok. Our ambition is to make BeReal the leader in authentic social, used by hundreds of millions.

ROLE

We are looking for an exceptional technologist to define the next generation of BeReal's technology.

You will go deep with our strongest engineers, challenge technical decisions across Mobile and Backend, lead major transformations, raise the technical level of the organization, and define how AI changes the way BeReal engineers build software.

You report directly to BeReal's CEO.

What you'll do:

- Define BeReal's long-term technical direction across Mobile, Backend, Data and infrastructure.

- Lead the transformation of a large native mobile application carrying significant legacy architecture.

- Set technical principles that allow teams to move quickly without degrading reliability, performance or maintainability.

- Challenge the hardest technical decisions alongside Staff-level engineers.

- Raise technical standards across the organization without centralizing every decision.

- Ensure BeReal remains reliable under highly concentrated traffic spikes from tens of millions of users.

- Guide major migrations and decide when to evolve incrementally vs rewrite.

- Define how AI transforms coding, testing, debugging, migrations, architecture and developer tooling.

- Partner with the CEO and engineering leadership on BeReal's most important technical bets.

- Practical point of view on AI applied to software engineering.

- Experience with high-scale consumer products or comparable high-throughput systems.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
