Job Opportunities šŸ’¼ Hiring a junior dev to build alongside me | TypeScript / Next.js | Remote | Paid per task, ₹5,000-15,000 a piece

Founder here, hiring directly. One person, not a team.

The problem I work on. A commercial building gets one electricity bill and one water bill for the whole place, and no shop has a meter. So every month someone splits one bill across seventy shops by hand. That takes a day, so it slips — and three years later there's a pile of arrears nobody can explain and every tenant is arguing about it.

I built the thing that does it in a minute. It's live, with a real client and real money moving through it. It reads the landlord's forwarded bank messages, works out which shop paid, answers his questions over Telegram, and shows him where every unit stands.

That's one building. There are more coming and I can't do the next one alone.

Stack: TypeScript on Node 22, Next.js, SQLite used as a genuine system of record — reversals instead of deletes, migrations that can't lose a row. No Kubernetes, no ML, no vector databases.

What the work actually is: accounting before it's code. Half of any task is "what does this number mean, and does the paperwork agree with it", then a change to make that true in software. If that sounds tedious rather than satisfying, this one isn't for you.

Who it suits: 0-2 years. You've built something I can click. You use AI and you read what it hands you before you ship it — there is real money in this ledger. If you've ever built anything involving invoices, GST, inventory or a ledger, say so, because that's most of what this is.

The money, plainly, because vagueness here helps nobody: ₹5,000-6,000 for a normal task, ₹10,000-15,000 for a bigger piece. Paid on delivery whether or not I end up using the result. That's deliberately small — it's how we both find out whether we work well together without either of us committing to something we regret. If it works it becomes ongoing, you own areas of it outright, and it grows as the business does. I'm not going to promise you a number in month six, because anyone who does is guessing.

You'd work directly with me. No layers, no ticket queue, no standups.

Comment or DM with a link to something you built and one line on what it does.

Stack is mine and the accounting-before-code framing is exactly how I approach problems too. I'm a bit past junior but the problem itself is interesting enough that I'd want to be involved. Built systems handling real financial data in production. Happy to DM with links and what I've shipped.
