I'm Dan, a Software engineer working at :Daffy from Spain.

In 2021 we started building both a team of talented and kind people and a product to help people be more generous, more often. In September, we launched our MVP that involved working with multiple teams and partners to do things like integrations with Payment processors, Crypto and Fiat custodians and banks, building an investment platform to manage and grow our user's contributions, building a payments system and a donations distribution mechanism, creating the platform that supports our mobile and web apps, and much more. I contributed code to our Backend, Web app, iOS app, and even some experiments in VR.

It's been a fantastic journey, but it's just the beginning. As we grow and develop new ideas to build a product and a community of members, we want to welcome more great people to the team with different backgrounds and fresh ideas to make our vision a reality. Join us in this rare opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology to make the world a better place.
