About Sharp Sharp App: Sharp Sharp App is Africa’s answer to TaskRabbit — a marketplace that connects everyday people to trusted taskers who can help with anything from fixing plumbing to running errands, all at the tap of a button. Our mission is to unlock economic opportunities for freelancers and local service providers while making life easier for customers across the continent. We’re creating a tech-first ecosystem built on trust, speed, and affordability — and we’re looking for brilliant minds to build it with us.
Role Summary: We are seeking a talented and ambitious Full-Stack Developer to lead the development of our MVP and scale it into a robust, mobile-first platform. You’ll be building an end-to-end marketplace that integrates user onboarding, job posting, booking, secure payments, reviews, and geo-location — all tailored for the unique challenges and opportunities across African markets.
Key Responsibilities: • Design, develop, and maintain web and mobile applications (React Native / Flutter + Node.js / Django preferred). • Build secure, scalable RESTful APIs for mobile and web clients. • Integrate third-party services such as payment gateways (Flutterwave, Paystack, M-Pesa), SMS gateways, and mapping APIs. • Work closely with UI/UX designers to translate wireframes into high-quality code. • Develop and manage a scalable backend architecture and database structure (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or similar). • Implement real-time messaging, push notifications, and task-matching algorithms. • Ensure cross-platform optimization and responsiveness across devices. • Participate in code reviews, testing, and continuous deployment processes. • Contribute to product planning, roadmap discussions, and strategic decision-making.
Requirements: • 3+ years of professional experience as a full-stack or mobile-first developer. • Strong knowledge of modern JavaScript frameworks (React/React Native, Vue.js) and backend technologies (Node.js, Django, or equivalent). • Experience deploying cloud applications (AWS, Google Cloud, or Heroku). • Demonstrated ability to develop secure, high-performance APIs and scalable microservices. • Previous experience working on a service marketplace, gig economy platform, or mobile wallet is highly desirable. • Deep understanding of user behavior in emerging markets (especially Africa) is a strong plus. • Comfortable working in fast-paced, startup-style environments with limited resources.
Preferred Qualifications: • Familiarity with offline-first mobile architectures and intermittent connectivity patterns. • Experience with mobile payments in Africa (USSD, QR codes, mobile money). • Knowledge of DevOps tools and CI/CD pipelines. • Passionate about financial inclusion, digital empowerment, and tech for good.
