Comm | engineering | NYC onsite | https://comm.app

We're a startup based in NYC working on a decentralized, self-hosted messaging platform for communities based on federated keyservers.

Our long-term goal is to build an alternative to the centralized application server model that dominates Web2. Sophisticated apps (like Discord) need a backend, but today those backends are controlled by corporations. Our solution is to replace the cloud with a network of personal, private application servers (we call them “keyservers”).

We’re looking to hire a designer and several engineers. Benefits include comprehensive health insurance, 401K match, on-site lunches, free MacBook Pro, and great team culture. Compensation is very competitive, especially for a startup.

We recently signed the term sheet for our $5m seed round led by CoinFund, which will bring our total funding up to $7m. We've previously raised from over 60 investors, including VC firms such as Slow Ventures, Electric Capital, Eniac Ventures, and scouts from Sequoia, Lightspeed, Index, and others.

We have a very strong team of 10 devs actively contributing to our codebase, including 5 here in NYC. Our tech stack includes modern React, React Native, C++, Rust, and AWS.

We're a startup based in NYC working on a Web3 Discord alternative. Comm is crypto-native messaging based on federated keyservers.

I starting working on Comm last year. I’m a programmer by trade and previously worked at FB for 5 years. We currently have 10 devs actively contributing to our codebase, including 5 here in NYC.

We raised some money last year from some big names and are closing our seed round this month!
