Django Backend Engineer

Join us in revolutionizing the way people communicate with each other, worldwide!

TextMe was created in March 2011 with a single vision and a single measure for success: to remove the modern barriers of communicating and provide people with universal and free communication options. TextMe’s ultimate goal is to achieve the highest quality and thus rival and surpass classical communication alternatives.

In order to deliver on this vision, TextMe gathered a group of enthusiastic engineers, with brilliant development skills in web and mobile technologies, joined by highly experienced entrepreneurs with in-depth technical and commercial expertise in mobile and telecommunications and, last but not least, with solid financial skills - thus enabling a sound, though fast-growing, self-funded development of the company.

TextMe is based in downtown San Francisco in Union Square.
