HipSnip is a personal shopping application to get product advice and recommendations. Share what you’re shopping for and connect with friends for opinion, or get recommendations from our expert community.

We are a young company based in the Shoreditch / Tech City area, and have already attracted industry recognition for our product, most recently reaching the finals of Ericsson’s global application awards.

We are growing quickly and now looking to establish a development team.

The chance to make significant contributions to the early product development of an exciting new service.

  • Packaging our web app using PhoneGap and Chrome extensions
  • Writing and running integration tests using Selenium
  • Developing our backend API using PHP and MongoDB

  • jQuery
