Hi all - I’m looking for an experienced mobile app developer to join me as a Technical Partner / Founding Developer for an early-stage startup I’m building called ReturnEase.

To be very clear upfront: this is not a paid freelance role. We are pre-revenue, so this would be a sweat equity / equity-only opportunity for someone who wants to help build something meaningful from the ground up and potentially become a genuine long-term business partner.

What ReturnEase is

ReturnEase is a mobile-first returns and logistics app designed to make product returns much easier for consumers.

Today, returns are still far more annoying than they should be. People often have to:

• dig through emails to find return labels or QR codes
• print labels or sort packaging themselves
• make separate trips to parcel shops
• juggle multiple retailer returns one by one
• fit everything around courier drop-off times and their own schedule

ReturnEase is built to make that process much more convenient by giving people a simpler, more joined-up returns experience through a mobile app.

The vision is not just “another returns company” - it’s a better consumer experience around returns logistics, built around convenience, simplicity, and time-saving.

Why I’m building it

I’ve already done a lot of work on the idea:

• extensive consumer validation, interviews, and feedback
• clear product flows and business thinking
• clickable Figma prototype already in progress
• company already set up, name secured, and serious groundwork underway

I’m not looking for someone to “come up with something from scratch.”
I’m looking for someone strong on the technical/mobile product side who can help me turn a clear vision into a well-built product.

About me

I’m 31, based in London, and currently work at Senior Vice President level in paid media at Omnicom.

I bring the commercial thinking, customer understanding, product vision, market positioning, and business drive. I’m highly entrepreneurial and very serious about building something with real scale potential.

Who I’m looking for

I’m specifically looking for someone who:

• has strong experience building mobile apps
• has built real products before, not just websites
• can think beyond just coding and contribute technically at a high level
• is interested in being a genuine early-stage partner, not just a contractor
• is reliable, thoughtful, entrepreneurial, and good to build with
• is on a similar timezone to London / the UK, ideally UK or Europe

Because this is a mobile app business, mobile product experience is the biggest requirement. That is the core of what I need.

Ideally, you’re already established in your career and may even already have a full-time role, but you want to build something ambitious on the side with the potential for it to become much bigger over time.

Important

Please only reach out if:

• you understand this is equity-only for now
• you have genuine mobile app build experience
• you’re based in a similar timezone and can collaborate closely

If that sounds like you, feel free to comment or DM me.

Hi - I’m looking for an experienced developer to join me in building an ambitious startup in the returns/logistics space.

The business is called ReturnEase. We’re still pre-revenue and early stage, so I want to be upfront that this is not a standard paid freelance role. Instead, I’m looking for someone who is open to an equity-based arrangement and, for the right person, a genuine long-term partnership as we build this together.

The concept has already been validated through extensive user interviews and feedback, and a clickable Figma prototype is already in progress.

I already cover the product vision, customer understanding, business direction, and product flows. What I’m looking for is a strong, thoughtful developer who can take the technical side seriously and help bring this to life in a smart, scalable way.

A bit about me:

I’m 31 and based in London, currently working at Senior Vice President level in paid media at Omnicom. I bring strong commercial, strategic, and customer understanding to the business, and I’m highly entrepreneurial. I’m now at the stage where I’m ready to commit seriously to building something with real scale potential.

ReturnEase is focused on making returns dramatically easier for consumers through a better logistics experience. I genuinely believe this could become a very large business, and I’d love to find someone who sees the potential in that too.

The kind of person I’m hoping to meet:

Ideally, you’re already established in your career, highly capable, and excited by the idea of building something meaningful on the side with the potential for it to become much bigger over time. You may already have a full-time role, but you’re entrepreneurial, reliable, and looking for the right opportunity to build alongside that.

This is not just an idea. The business has already been registered, the website/domain has been secured, the name has been trademarked, the concept has been validated through extensive user interviews and feedback, and a clickable Figma prototype is already in progress.

Experience in any of the below would be especially valuable:

•	mobile apps

•	scalable backend systems

•	marketplaces, logistics, booking, or operationally complex products

•	payments, notifications, and admin/dashboard builds

I’m based in London, so ideally you would be too, but I’m very open to hearing from great people anywhere in the world.
