Come build SimplyMe
A small team in Texas building a social platform, a design tool, a music app and an AI layer that connects them. If that sounds like too much for a small team, that is rather the point.
Why join
- Genuine scope. Nobody here owns a sliver of a feature.
- Ship weekly. Short distance between an idea and real users.
- Product decisions happen in the open, with the whole team in the room.
- Meaningful equity, and honest conversations about what it is worth.
- Flexible hours, remote-friendly within a few hours of IST.
How we work
- Small teams, whole problems. You get a problem and the room to solve it, not a ticket queue.
- Write things down. Short documents beat long meetings. Decisions get a paragraph explaining why.
- Talk to users. Everyone, including engineers, spends time in the support inbox.
- Safety is designed in. Moderation and abuse-resistance are part of the spec, not a later phase.
- Sustainable pace. Launch weeks are intense. The other weeks are not meant to be.
Open roles
We are hiring across engineering, design and trust & safety as we head towards launch. Current areas of need:
- Senior Frontend Engineer: React, Next.js, TypeScript. You will own large parts of the feed and the Creative Studio canvas.
- Backend Engineer, Media: video transcoding, storage, delivery at scale.
- Machine Learning Engineer: the AI caption, résumé and safety classification pipelines.
- Product Designer: you would be shaping how creation and posting feel as one motion.
- Trust & Safety Lead: policy, tooling and escalation paths before we need them, not after.
- Community Manager: founding creators, onboarding, and being the voice that answers.
Our hiring process
- You apply. We read every application ourselves.
- A 30-minute call about what you have built and what you want to build.
- A paid, time-boxed practical exercise: something close to real work, no algorithm puzzles.
- A conversation with two people you would work with daily.
- Reference check, offer, decision. Usually two to three weeks end to end.
We tell you where you stand at each step, and we give a real reason if it is a no. AI-written applications are fine; we build AI writing tools, so it would be strange to object. But the claims in them need to be true.
How to apply
Email careers@simplyme.app with the role in the subject line, a CV or portfolio link, and a short note on something you have made that you are proud of. Links to real work beat a cover letter every time.
