About Pocket Writer
Pocket Writer is redefining how creators write, publish, and grow. We’re building an AI-powered writing and publishing platform that helps creators bring their ideas to life - from titles and content to visualisation and community-building.
If you’ve ever wanted to own a product end-to-end, build something that scales from zero to thousands, and be part of a founding story, this role is for you.
Why This Role Is Special
We’ve built our MVP and are closing in on our Beta launch. Now we’re entering the most exciting phase - building on top of a solid base to deliver a seamless, creator-first experience that redefines modern writing platforms.
What We’re Looking For
You’re not just a developer - you’re a builder. Someone who thrives in chaos, enjoys creating from scratch, and loves solving hard problems with elegant tech.
We’re looking for someone who can wear multiple hats - backend architect, Android engineer, debugger, problem solver, and product thinker
