Pavlok is a wearable device that helps users break bad habits and addictions. We are the next step in wearable technology --- instead of tracking what you do, we change what you do. Pavlok uses classical conditioning (pairing a bad habit with a slightly uncomfortable electrical stimulus) to break bad habits in a week or less -- more than 50% of our users quit smoking by day 5.
Pavlok also has an open API that allows developers to use the wearable to vibrate, beep, and zap (with different voltage levels and patterns) on command.
We've been featured on Good Morning America, the Colbert Report, The New York Times, Boston Globe, and hundreds of other news sources. We are a part of Amazon's new Launchpad program, see here: http://bitly.com/1g1fVds
Embedded Engineer
We are doing bluetooth coding with two chips: The Bluegiga 113 (BGScript language) and A Nordic chipset (C language). We are looking for embedded programmers with a background in Bluetooth LE coding. Ideally, you've had experience with APNS and ANCS (Apple's push/notification services).
UI/UX Designer
We are looking for a UI/UX designer to take our app to the next level. We have both web designs, app design, assets, and infographic needs. If you have a design-background and are interested in being part of the new world of wearables, we'd love to chat.
