Golang Job Details

We're a well-funded Tech scaleup in Europe and Asia with a mission to make the world fairer and more productive. We are doing this by making assets more transparent, trustworthy and accessible - starting with real estate. Incomes have stagnated, so more access to high value assets like real estate = less wealth inequality. We have first mover advantage!

Our CEO and co-founder Moubin had a successful career at McKinsey and private equity firm, APAX. Our CTO and co-founder Misrab is a Stanford Computer Scientist and scaled the data team at Gojek, a Tech unicorn in Asia.

Our values sit at the core of GetGround - no BS, pursuit of excellence, feedback obsession and healthy egos.

GetGround in numbers:

  • ‍‍ 85 colleagues (ex Google, Meta, Deliveroo, Feedzai etc)
  • £1Bn+ of assets on our platform
  • 15,000+ users across 70 countries, with a 10% market share already
  • Global hubs (UK, Portugal, Hong Kong, Singapore)
