At Raya, we're focused on building a solution to a problem our team has often encountered: there's no good way to meet like-minded people online and if you do, it's very hard to take these interactions into the real world. That's why we set out to create a trusted online community where people felt comfortable finding life partners, friends, and work collaborations.
Just as we bring people together around the world, we work hard to build a community here at Raya. We are a family of talented individuals who have all devoted our careers to finding exciting ways to foster human connection through technology.
We have openings around the world: Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Barcelona, and Mexico City. If you're interested in joining our team, feel free to reach out to us at careers@rayatheapp.com.
