About the Company
PhotoCircle is a private photo and video sharing service used by millions of consumers and businesses. The app allows users to create private albums, called Circles, and selectively choose who can join. The app is available on iOS and Android, with web usage currently limited to business users. Consumer usage is primarily comprised of college students, travel, and social events in the US. The PhotoCircle for Business Platform, launched in 2022, targets industries selling physical goods and services – home construction, solar installation, fashion, travel tours, food & beverage distribution, and more – allowing them the ability to manage their users and circles at scale. The app has 66k ratings, averaging 4.9 stars on the Apple App Store, and ranks in the top 50 of the Photo & Video category. Users praise the app for its simple, consumer-focused design, allowing them to easily stay connected with the people they care about.
We are a small, experienced, distributed team that operates asynchronously over Slack, Notion, and Figma. We do not do calls or Zoom meetings. You can work your own hours, from anywhere, as long as the work gets done. We are highly agile, frequently shipping code to production.
