Company Profile

Swapie runs two tech software products: (1) swapie.co, a fintech platform that maximizes cashback, (2) gifting.sg, a social-good gift-raising, instead of fund-raising, platform that involves consumers, businesses, and charities. We also provide digital consultation services to selected clients.


Our culture: We are borderline crazy, rule-benders (not breakers), and we press on unless we’re dead, in comatose, or both. We never ever give two hoots to peoples’ gossips about us so if these matter to you, look elsewhere now. We also firmly believe that output speaks more than input. It is not the number of hours we put in, but the quality of the work we all bring to the table that matters and we do have high standards for those.

Job Description

About The Role

The role reports dually to the CEO and CTO, sitting at the intersection of marketing and technology. Candidates are expected to be holistic all-rounders or at least an expert with demonstrated experience in either one area, such as a marketing major with basic front-end programming knowledge. You can expect to be tutored in the area you are less familiar in, while honing your skills to deliver top-of-the-class work in the other, but to successfully achieve this with us we believe you need to work very hard and be very hungry.

Job Requirements

Compulsory cultural traits:

  • Prioritising executing over planning, bias for action/actionables
  • ‘Over-communicator’ – which means you are always 120% clear due to concise and unambiguous communication methods, especially in remote settings these days
  • High resourcefulness, learn fast and in a nonlinear way, resilient, demonstrated ability to make magic happen out of thin air
  • Strong, or even life-defining unwillingness to remain an ordinary person
  • Unfazed in the face of a fast-moving and unforgiving business climate, at the same time always ready to lend support to teammates
  • Extremely high standard of pride in work and level of detail, even to an extent of OCD when it comes to branding/marketing

Technical skills:

  • Most technical skills can be deciphered from the job description above – but to list them: WordPress.org, Wix, MailChimp, Facebook/Google Ads, Canva, Hubspot, Asana
  • Have managed the full spectrum of social media pages before, including strategizing and execution of the social media calendar
  • Has a natural flair when it comes to graphic design, content writing, and creative campaigns, and is also highly logical with the ability to deep-dive web/social analytics
  • Our tech stack is predominantly JavaScript running on AWS infrastructure, with GitHub and Trello for product management. Front-end: React, Angular; Back-end: ExpressJS, Python; Database: PostgreSQL, MySQL, NoSQL.
  • Must-know for programming: JavaScript, HTML5, CSS, responsive design, ReactJS. Need to be familiar with: jQuery, Bootstrap, AngularJS, any prototyping tool.
  • Prior working experience in a tech startup and/or similar role is a very strong advantage, even better if you can prove that you are an Olympic wearer of many hats

As you would have guessed it, cultural traits are non-negotiable. We are much, much more concerned with your attitude and the things that encourage you to wake up every day.
