The crew
The ZWIM team in Lisbon, March 2026
Lisbon, March 2026. Tight crew. Heavy R&D. Building Connected Swim Training.
Why ZWIM

We’re building a category that didn’t exist before us. Hardware that reads every stroke, software that turns it into a game, and training that pulls people back tomorrow.

Twenty thousand swimmers came before. They told us what was missing. That’s what we’re building now.

Lisbon office. Full-time. The crew is small. The work is real. The pace is fast.

If you want to ship the version of swim training that finally makes sense — read on.

Open roles

Two critical hires. Two more on the team.

We’re hiring four. The two on top are the critical hires. The two underneath join the marketing team that the Full-Stack Growth Marketer leads.

Full-time · Lisbon · Senior

Senior Game Engineer

Generalist. Speed-focused. Ships gameplay systems at pace.

You own the systems that keep people coming back. Core gameplay, progression, world-building, multiplayer.

You ship at pace. You don’t gold-plate. This isn’t a UMG/HUD specialist role and not a UX designer.

  • Core gameplay systems
  • Progression and motivation loops
  • World-building and visual polish
  • Multiplayer (if you have the chops)
Profile: gameplay programmer with breadth. Some 3D, some animation, some multiplayer. Ship-ship-ship culture, not perfect-once-and-done.

Full-time · Lisbon · Mid–senior

Full-Stack Growth Marketer

AI-fluent. Triathlete or swimmer. Builds and runs the digital growth engine.

You own the digital growth engine. One person, force-multiplied by AI. You set up the systems, run them, grow them.

You replace what would normally take a small marketing team. AI tools are your daily kit, not occasional helpers.

Critical: you are the user. Triathlete or swimmer. You feel the gap before we have to explain it.

  • Email and lifecycle
  • Organic social
  • Website and landing pages
  • Marketing automation
  • Growth experiments and analytics
  • Leads the marketing team
Profile: mid–senior marketer who codes with AI. Has shipped a side project that proves they build, not just brief. Triathlete or swimmer is a must, not a bonus.

Content Creator

Hungry one with a camera. Builds the content engine.

You shoot, edit, and ship the content engine. Reels, carousels, photo and video B-roll. You run day-to-day on the social channels and direct Victor on camera regularly.

You’re AI-fluent on the production stack. You don’t need a producer. You are the producer.

  • Reels and short-form video
  • Carousels and platform editorial
  • Photo and video B-roll, end-to-end
  • Community engagement
  • Ambassador program execution
Profile: 3–5 years. Video-first creator who shoots, edits, posts, engages alone. Strong on camera or strong directing on-camera talent. Bonus: swimmer or triathlete.

Community & Brand Storyteller

Writer who loves humans. Owns the community and the long-form.

You harvest and tell the real stories from the ZWIM community. Ambassador program, UGC, beta community, long-form. You make us sound like us.

You read every reply. You spot the story before it announces itself. You write fast in the founder voice and your own.

  • Community and ambassador program
  • UGC pipeline
  • Beta community
  • Long-form content
  • Press
Profile: 3–5 years. Strong writer with a published portfolio. Background ideally ex-journalist who moved into brand, content marketer at a consumer brand, or comms at an early-stage startup.
