Job description

Social Discovery Group(SDG) is a group of social discovery companies. SDG solves the problems of loneliness, isolation, and disconnection – transforming virtual intimacy into the new normal. SDG’s products redefine the way people interact and connect with one another.

Our portfolio includes social entertainment platforms designed to connect people online across different cultures and regions of the world.

We bring together a team of like-minded people and IT professionals who specialize in creating and developing globally impactful social discovery products. Our international team of digital nomads works remotely from all over the world.

We’re proud to be a two‑time “Great Place to Work” winner (USA & Japan, 2024–2025) and a Top-5 Company for Work-From-Anywhere Jobs (FlexJobs, 2025).

Your main tasks will be:

• Own product features end-to-end, from a one‑line problem statement to production
• Reach out to external partners and providers yourself: get sandbox access and documentation, and agree on integration details
• Write product and technical specifications together with AI agents, and take full responsibility for every line of them
• Delegate development to AI agents and critically review and accept their output in a large codebase with complex components and integrations; you won’t be writing code by hand

• AI agents (Claude Code, Codex or similar) as your primary daily development tool, and a habit of keeping up with how agentic development evolves
• Strong ownership and an entrepreneurial mindset: you figure out on your own what needs to be done and drive tasks to results without detailed specifications
• A critical eye for AI-generated work: you quickly dig into agents’ output, catch errors and choose the best solution
• A focus on hands‑on product work as an individual contributor; this role does not involve managing a team
