About VetPal
VetPal is an Irish technology start-up building a digital platform that connects animal owners, veterinary practices, and pharmacies across Ireland. Our platform handles veterinary digital prescriptions from Vet to agri Co-Op stores and Pharmacies across Ireland.
We're based in Roscommon and looking for someone local (or willing to relocate) who wants to get in at the ground floor of a tech company and grow with us.
The Role
This is a genuine all-rounder role for someone early in their tech career who wants broad, hands-on experience rather than a narrow job description. You'll work directly with the founders and our development partners, and over time you'll build a deep understanding of how the entire platform works — technically and commercially.
For the right person, this role has a clear path toward a senior technical leadership position (potentially CTO) as the company scales.
What You'll Be Doing
Platform Support & Testing
- Responding to support queries from vets, Co-Ops and pharmacies.
- Testing new features and releases across our web and mobile apps before they go live
- Logging, reproducing, and reporting bugs to the development team
- Carrying out data entry and data quality tasks on the platform
Website & Technical Work
- Maintaining and developing the company website
- Gradually learning our tech stack (React, React Native, Node.js, MongoDB, AWS) with a view to contributing to the platform over time
Account Management Support
- Helping onboard new veterinary practices and pharmacies
- Acting as a point of contact for client questions and follow-ups
- Supporting demos, training sessions, and customer success activities
What We're Looking For
Essential:
- A genuine interest in technology and a willingness to learn fast
- Some exposure to web development (HTML/CSS/JavaScript) — through a course, college, personal projects, or work
- Strong communication skills — you'll be talking to customers, not just screens
- Well organised, reliable, and comfortable juggling varied tasks
- Based in or able to commute to Roscommon
Nice to Have (not required):
- A qualification in computer science, software development, or a related field
- Experience with WordPress or similar website tools
- Familiarity with React, JavaScript frameworks, or databases
- Any customer service, support desk, or account management experience
- An interest in animals, agriculture, or the veterinary sector
- Keen to use, develop and implement AI into the platform.
What We Offer
- A rare opportunity to learn every side of a tech business — product, support, development, and client management
- Direct mentorship from the founding team
- Real responsibility from day one, with room to shape your own role
- A defined growth path toward senior technical leadership as the company scales
- Salary review after 6 months, tied to growth in responsibility
How to Apply
Send your CV and a short note telling us why this role appeals to you to [email protected]. We'd rather hear genuine enthusiasm and a willingness to learn than a long list of qualifications.
