Senior Full-Stack Developer (Node.js / React / React Native) @ AI Startup

About Us

Remember those nights when you spend more time choosing a movie than actually watching it? Or when recommended titles completely miss the mark on what you're actually into? Ever wonder if those algorithms even know who you are?

And how often do you wonder why you're paying for all those subscriptions when you still have "nothing to watch"?

Let's change that together. Our platform can perfectly match content to individual users in just a few seconds (sign up at https://app.tasteray.com/waitlist if you want to test it).
