Full Stack Developer

Full-stack Developer (Django + Flutter), Junior

AM:PM is a creator-first news app. Short vertical video, fact-checked, for Gen Z and millennials. Every story carries a Take and a Flip: the view everyone is repeating, and the credible counter view nobody is showing you. Live on the Play Store and App Store, worldwide, audience India-first. Pre-seed, raising seed, about fifteen people in the office.

Founding team seat

• Backbone role. The API the app runs on, and everything between a video being ingested and a video being watched.
• Early enough that what you build becomes how the product works.

What you own

• Feed API: pagination, payload shape, caching
• Video delivery: ingest, transcode handoff, time to first frame
• Flutter feed, both platforms: virtualisation, preloading, controller disposal, smooth scroll on bad networks
• The rest of the Django backend, plus admin tooling the content team uses daily
• Production. Something breaks on a live app, you find out why.

Vertical video is the product, so playback and load time are not polish. They are the thing.You

• Zero to two years
• Python, Django or close enough
• Something you built in Flutter that runs
• Shipped something people used
• GitHub with history spread over time
• Have measured why something was slow instead of guessing
• Use AI daily, catch what it gets wrong
• In Mumbai, six days, fine with that

Moves you to the top of the pile

• Shipped something where the hard part was delivery: video, audio, infinite scroll
• One performance bug you can name and explain what you changed
• An app in a store, either store
• You have used AM:PM and can point at where it feels slow

Pay: ₹800,000.00 - ₹2,000,000.00 per year
