Responsibilities

Key responsibilities.

  • Designed and built core mobile app flows (profile, matching, chat)
  • Integrated secure messaging and push notifications
  • Optimized for performance and user retention
Challenges & solutions

What we had to solve.

Balancing privacy with social mechanics: matches had to feel personal without exposing sensitive wellness data. We shipped end-to-end private chat, moderation hooks, and a waitlist-driven rollout so the early community stayed tight and supportive.
