• Wear multiple hats in a fast-paced, high-ownership startup environment .

✅ What We’re Looking For

• 1-4+ years of engineering experience with a strong track record of shipping real products.
• Solid full-stack skills — comfortable working across backend (Python) and frontend (React/Next.js) codebases.
• Strong problem-solving abilities — able to break down ambiguous problems into clear solutions.
• Experience building user-facing products and working directly with customers.
• Ability to own features end-to-end , from quick specs to testing and deployment.
• Excellent cross-functional communication skills.

🌟 Bonus Points

• Experience integrating ML/AI/LLMs into applications.
• Background with design tools, chat experiences , or creative coding platforms.
• Prior startup or founding team experience .
• Mobile engineering expertise (Swift, Flutter, Expo).

⚠️ This Role May Not Be a Fit If

• You need highly structured requirements and dislike ambiguity.
• You prefer to work on only one part of the stack.
• You have no experience with systems involving many moving parts.

🖥 Our Tech Stack

• Frontend : Next.js (React/Typescript), Zustand, Tailwind/Shadcn

• Mobile : Swift, Flutter, Expo

💡 Some of the Challenges You’ll Tackle

• Reinforcement learning for personalization — dynamically optimizing prices, paywalls, and user experiences.
• Automated A/B testing — systems that select and run new experiments based on analytics + AI code generation.
• AI-driven editor — tools for rapidly creating and improving paywall experiences.
• Billion-scale content serving — Python services handling thousands of QPS for millions of mobile devices.
