★ Careers at Eight

Build the future
of love.

We're a small team in Lisbon building the only love app where the chat is earned. Going to London with Ross Williams. The next ten people we hire will shape the next ten years.

★ How we work

The way we build.

Six things that are true about every day at Eight. If they sound like you, we should talk.

★ 01

Ship weekly.

The Eight room opens twice a week. The product changes every week. We don't believe in roadmaps longer than a quarter, and we don't write specs longer than a page.

★ 02

Founder-grade taste.

Every screen, every email, every micro-copy detail goes through Afonso or Miguel. If something looks wrong, it gets fixed before it ships. No "we'll polish it later".

★ 03

Read every report.

The founders personally read every safety escalation. Engineering reads support tickets. Marketing answers user emails. Nobody is too senior to talk to a real human.

★ 04

Lisbon by default.

We're built in Lisbon and we love it here. Hybrid in-office (Tue/Wed/Thu) for Lisbon-based roles. Remote OK for senior IC roles in EU/UK timezones with quarterly visits.

★ 05

Equity-heavy.

Salaries are competitive for Lisbon. Equity is generous and matters. The first 10 hires will own meaningful equity, exercise-friendly, founder-aligned terms.

★ 06

Bring your work.

Skip the CV. Send us the thing you made. The room you ran. The brand you launched. The growth funnel you 10x'd. Show, don't tell. Always wins.

Open roles.

We're not actively hiring right now. We are always listening. If you're the right person, we will make a role for you.

💜

No public roles open right now.

But the next round will fund a small team. If you've read this far, write to us anyway. Tell us what you'd build at Eight, what you've shipped before, and where you'd want to plug in. We read everything.
