Project Summary

Hapidev set out to become Switzerland’s first community-driven job platform for tech talent. Ultrabrand built the brand and name, then created a multi-layer ecosystem that blends community, content, and hiring: blog, forums, groups, multi-tier subscriptions, podcasts, courses and programs, events with ticketing, and a full job posting and applications pipeline connected to CRM and automations. The platform is multilingual and AI-assisted for ongoing marketing.

Challenge

Build a differentiated job platform that doesn’t rely solely on paid traffic: it needed a community spine (forums, groups, content), a scalable monetization model (subscriptions and events), and a robust hiring engine (jobs, applications, employer updates), all multilingual and automated from first visit to placement.

Ultrabrand Solution

Ultrabrand designed a hybrid model that includes community, media and marketplace, to compound engagement and lower acquisition costs. 


We implemented multi-level memberships and payments, a jobs & applications pipeline with automated notifications, and growth surfaces across podcasts, courses, and events. 


A multilingual content system, AI marketing assistant, and custom AI agent support ongoing activation, while CRM and automations unify user journeys for candidates and employers.

Integrated marketing system overview

Architecture: CMS-driven community (forums, groups) + jobs marketplace + media (blog, podcast)


Memberships & revenue: multi-tier subscriptions, paid events with ticketing and settlement


Hiring engine: job posting, applications management, candidate/employer dashboards, status notifications
