Why join koodos labs?

You should join koodos labs for the people and our mission.

We aspire to build the best team of the 2020s. Just like PayPal in the 90s, Google in the 00s, and Stripe in the 10s, we want to be known as "a place where it's good to be from." If you join us, we promise to be the best place to grow your career — with the best people you've ever worked with. We’re also working on a very bold mission.

We are building a generation-defining cultural product, and are looking for someone to establish Shelf in the culture.

What we’re building

Shelf helps users passively track their consumption, connect with others through shared interests, and gain insights about themselves from their data. And, in return, users get a personal data store and the ability to provision access to their credentials and context at-will, gaining a passport to a more agentic internet. We've helped >700,000 users re-aggregate >9B data points so far (i.e. Jad watched S2E1 of Severance) - and we’re growing fast. Check us out on the iOS app store (Android coming soon!)

Shelf is powered by ShelfAPI (fka DataMover), a "Plaid for Personal Data”. Beyond Shelf, it’s now used by a select group of 3rd party apps and agents to power novel experiences.

The future is personalized experiences powered by user-controlled data, this depends on dynamic and transportable user context. We’re building a future where apps and services come to you and your data—not the other way around. See our latest paper here.

The Opportunity

Your mission is to make sure Shelf is positioned to become more than just a product—it can be a category-defining brand and cultural force. A strong brand presence will drive recognition, trust, and long-term user adoption. This role is foundational.

The opportunity to take on the expanding Shelf brand universe: across the core Shelf product, editorial (Shelf Magazine), social content (Shelf Studios) & even physical goods.

Right now, what’s missing is:

• A strong brand strategy that elevates Shelf into culture, and bridges between editorial, content and product — including a strong thread that carries across them and integrates them effectively.
• Experienced in designing sharp processes and systems, expertly managing young creatives & projects end-to-end, and consistently delivering impactful, high-quality initiatives & campaigns.
