We're hiring for someone to lead our algorithms development. The purpose of this letter is to help you decide if this role is the right one for you. And if it turns out this is a fit, my claim is that you will be hard-pressed to find something more meaningful and impactful for your life and career.

It will take you some time to read through, but if you do, you should learn something new, have a clear sense of what we're working on and if you'll thrive in our current environment. You won't find traditional requirements. Mostly because this isn't a traditional role. For the right person, this could be a once-in-lifetime chance to do something that matters and propels your personal growth.

Thanks in advance for reading & sleep well,

Leon

Co-founder, CTO @ Rise Science


What are we working on at Rise Science?

The short answer: we're building a sleep app for everyday-people that helps you be less tired and get more out of your day.

Sleep is the most potent performance enhancing drug known to humans. It's the foundation of literally everything we can measure about you. And it's your nights that dictate your days.

Read about how we got started: Our founders' journey to sleep and its importance.

You might ask “Does the world need another sleep app?” The answer is, no, it doesn’t. At least not a traditional one...

Through years of user research and product development, we learned that people don’t want to spend more time sleeping.

What people really want is to have more energy.
