Build consumer apps from zero — the 0→1 seat, not the maintenance seat.
EngineeringLisbon or remote$30/hour trial → $30k–$60k/yrNo CV
Alongside DansUGC we build consumer apps and market them with our own UGC engine. You'd be the engineer for that portfolio: idea to App Store, repeatedly, without a committee in between.
What you'll do
- Build consumer apps end to end — React Native / Expo or Swift, your call, defended.
- Ship to the App Store and Play Store: builds, review, releases, crash triage.
- Wire up the load-bearing boring parts — auth, payments (Stripe / RevenueCat), analytics, push.
- Instrument before the ads run, so growth isn't flying blind on launch day.
- Move fast. First version in weeks, not quarters.
What we're looking for
- You've shipped an app to a real store that real strangers used. Link it.
- Strong TypeScript, comfortable across the stack (we run Next.js 15 + Supabase + Cloudflare).
- You use AI tooling seriously, and it makes you faster without making you sloppy.
- You'd rather cut scope than miss a launch.

The deal
First two weeks
$30/hour, paid per task. Real work, not a take-home test — and you keep the money either way.
After that
A full-time salary of $30,000–$60,000 a year, if you're fast and the work is good.
Where
The team is in Lisbon. Remote works if you're genuinely async-excellent.
