ABOUT US

Storyteller is a high growth B2B SaaS platform, which allows companies to integrate Stories into their owned and operated platforms. Popularized by Instagram and Snapchat, Stories are perfectly suited for boosting user engagement, audience retention, and driving advertising revenue. For customers, building their own stories experience can take years and a lot of investment however Storyteller has solved this by allowing companies to integrate in days, not years all for one monthly cost.

Our end‑to‑end platform gives companies a best‑in‑class Stories experience in days with native iOS, Android, and Web SDKs, publishing tools, analytics, and ad support.

RECRUITMENT PROCESS

First, you will be given access to a video interview platform, where you'll answer some questions – doing it this way gives you the flexibility to complete it at your own pace, and at a time best suited to you.

If successful, you'll be invited to a technical interview with Latif, QA Team Lead, where he'll provide details about the role and company and answer any questions you may have.

If we think there's a fit, we’ll invite you to complete a short technical test so you can show us what you’re capable of doing.

Finally, we’ll then invite you to meet Dave, CTO, Filip, Head of Mobile, and Latif, so you can present your task to us – explaining your technical choices and how you went about building it. We’ll also ask you some final questions.

And that’s it!
