Job Description

We require all our members to play active roles in the community by offering their unique skills, wisdom, and energy to one another as the “ice-breaker” for the friendship to be born. Kinnd combines 1-on-1 friend pairing with social networking features and games designed to help people not only find new friends but maintain and strengthen their friendship online. Our north star is to eradicate loneliness worldwide by 2030.
