Job description

Build consumer mobile apps and market them yourself — both halves, one person.

Alongside DansUGC we build consumer mobile apps and grow them ourselves. We're looking for someone who already does both: you've vibe-coded an app, put it in front of strangers, and marketed it to real revenue on your own.

What you'll do

• Build consumer mobile apps end to end with Claude Code, Codex and whatever else makes you fastest.
• Ship to the App Store and Play Store: builds, review, releases, crash triage.
• Market what you build — organic short‑form, paid, App Store optimization — and own the revenue it makes.
• Wire up the load-bearing parts: auth, payments (RevenueCat / Stripe), analytics, paywalls.
• Move fast. First version in days or weeks, not quarters.

What we’re looking for

• You’ve built a mobile app with vibe‑coding tools and it has (or had) at least $1k MRR.
• You got it there by marketing it yourself — no agency, no budget you didn’t earn.
• You can build and market at the same time, and you enjoy both.
• You’d rather cut scope than miss a launch.
