PROBLEM SOLVING: Main: People aren’t able to look back, in detail,at different personally cherishable moments in life;moments that contain the essence and emotions of the different experiences in life. This is linked to 2 sub-problems : 1)People don’t have many memories recorded in digital format because they never got a push to capture majority of such happenings 2)A Lot of efforts are required to look for the very few moments captured, in photos and videos because they are scattered randomly and buried deep down in laptop folders or drives. People, who want to look at various moments experienced in life,aren’t able to do so. WHY IS THIS GOOD TIME TO START SLAM8? People are feeling discontented and frustated with social media especially facebook as they waste a lot of time & are just about other people.Encouraging people to save their own life’s simple memories,thoughts & emotions in details can be a more engaging option.We need to focus on the moments that one will want to look back to.This way the output will make people happy.Also the shared content will be far more relatable and useful to people. This combination between social and personal will be a much better companion to people Such product is absent in the market We are looking for an experienced (atleast 2 years) back-end developer who has worked on following: 1)Node.Js 2)MongoDB , graphDB(Neo4j) 3)AWS 4)Java-spring ,apache struts2 5)Micro services architecture 6)caching using reddis or memcached 7)RESTful services He/she should have sufficient knowledge on 1)Micro services 2)API gateway 3)Database maintanance Note: we are looking for co-founders who can join and work along with the existing team of 7 members based on equity.None of us is expecting any salary atleast till next six month(app development period).You can keep your old job while working for this 6 months if you can contribute 36 hours a week on average
