Who we are

We're building a prayer and meditation app. One that is authentically Christian and Catholic, while at the same time a resource for anyone looking to grow deeper in a relationship with God. We believe that people are hungry for peace, and that there is no surer way to find it than by learning to sit in silence with Christ: “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest” (Mt 11:28).

Our goal is to build something truly great. Something that combines the beauty of the Church’s spirituality with world-class product and content execution.

We launched the app in December of 2018 and have been blown away with the incredible growth & traction. Hallow has been downloaded over 10 million times with over 200,000 5-star reviews. We're blessed to be backed by some of the best mission-driven investors in the world and are excited to build out the team to help a lot more folks grow closer to God.

We are a startup. We move quickly and take big swings. We are a small and fast moving team and each person is responsible for making an impact. It is hard work, but also deeply meaningful. We’d be honored & humbled if you’d consider joining us.

Tldr: We are scaling up our dev team and looking for someone who help us build out our web offerings (checkout flows, web products, etc)

What You'll Do

Create: Build new web experiences for our users, improve our existing React codebases, handle paths for payment processing, create shared auth flows and more!
Collaborate: Work closely within a product pod alongside other developers and designers in an agile environment to implement designs, interfaces, and animations.
Launch: Own the full release lifecycle of new features and ideas, taking them from ideation all the way to launch and deployment.

What You'll Love

Mission: This work is incredibly humbling. Everyday we hear amazing stories and we get the pleasure of working on something that’s impacting lives. One of our favorite user quotes: “I hate quoting an old, overused cliche, but I’ve been very lost. And I think for the first time in a while I may be found.”
Ownership: When a company is this small, every employee is a core team member with an outsized impact. You'll own the entire codebase for your vertical within a product pod from start to finish.
Growth: From day 1, you’ll be a part of the startup journey. We went from less than 10 to over 60 in the past 2 years, and we’ll need your help to create a world-class team and get individuals praying in more countries around the world.
Flexibility: We operate as a largely remote team with members all over the globe. This role is a remote role except for our couple in person company planning meetings each year. We don’t care when or where you work just that it gets done. That being said, our HQ is in Chicago and if in person work is something you are interested in we’d love to have you there!
Comp: We pay competitive market rates both in terms of equity, cash, & benefits.

What We're Looking For

Passion: First and foremost, we’re looking for someone excited and passionate about our mission. It makes it a lot more fun to actually care about what you’re working on!
Experience: A foundation of 5+ years of experience in web development in general; 5+ years of experience with JavaScript, HTML & CSS; 3+ years of experience with React; experience with building single page applications; an attention to detail with regards to design and crafting user interfaces; knowledge of application architecture and design; experience building reactive applications that interact with live content including streaming content; experience with payment processors.
Grit & Detail-Oriented: We really care about what we’re doing & try to build as fast as we can. Since we’re guided meditation and competing with some large players in the market (Calm, Headspace), we have to stand out. Everything we do, say, send, or spend money on should be top-notch quality and set Hallow apart as the best.

We are honored that you'd consider joining the team and look forward to connecting with you.

Best,

Alex at Hallow

CEO & Co-Founder
