Software Architect at new Human-Centered Social Network Startup

LifeBonder Remote Part-timeInternship

Salary Unpaid

At Lifebonder, we’re on a mission to break social media addiction, fake personas, cyber-bullying, cancel culture, and loneliness by providing a Mesaverse that lives up to the promise of what social media can be: A safe place to facilitate human connections rather than replace them.

We want to make the world a better place by filling a growing need for direct socialising outside social media - connecting people in friendships that are human, profound, and meaningful. LifeBonder makes it easy for people to connect in a deeper reality through shared spaces, values, and goals because our vision is to build social bonds in real life.
