Product Engineer App And Platforms

Job Description

This is a delivery-focused role rather than a purely supervisory one: you will carry out the majority of the day-to-day design, development, and implementation work directly. You will be Ansh's primary technical owner of our app and website, working closely with our Analytics Engineer to ensure data flows cleanly from the app into our dashboards, with the M& E and program teams to understand their requirements, and with the C-suite to ensure our technology and roadmap keep pace with our growth. Our tech team is small, so this role calls for a startup mentality and the initiative to step outside a predefined job description when something needs doing, rather than waiting to be asked. The candidate will have responsibilities across the following functions: Develop and improve our field app: - Design and implement new features within our FlutterFlow app, from requirements gathering through to build and delivery, translating input from the M& E and operations teams into working functionality. - Maintain the app's underlying databases, including making manual data updates where required. - Own the full bug and issue-tracking cycle, identifying, prioritising, assigning, and resolving issues that affect app stability, data collection, or care delivery. - Manage version control and releases, testing and publishing new app versions, writing release notes, and notifying the team of changes. - Manage app accounts and access for team members, providing technical support where needed. - Periodically review and improve the app's design, evaluating user interface and user experience to improve usability. Maintain our website, tech systems and accounts: - Maintain and update Ansh's website (built in Wix), including content changes, functionality fixes, and periodic design/UX review. - Manage and maintain integrations with third-party tools (e. g., Trello, Slack, Google Workspace tools, Firebase), keeping systems efficient, up-to-date, and aligned with organisational needs. - Manage accounts and access for the tools and platforms our team relies on day-to-day (e. g. app accounts, website admin access, and other core tools), including onboarding and offboarding team members from a technical standpoint. - Conduct orientation on technology and tools for new team members. - Maintain basic security hygiene across the systems you own: access permissions, password practices, and account recovery. - Ensure backups for FlutterFlow, GitHub, and Firestore are conducted and monitored. - Support with ad-hoc technology projects and transitions, e. g. changing our Google Workspace. - Support with increased AI integration and technology innovation across the organisation. Follow good technical practice: - Apply sound engineering practices to keep our dashboards and app reliable and maintainable as they scale, rather than optimising only for short-term delivery. - Document your work clearly, so that systems and decisions are understood across the organisation rather than held only by you. - Recommend new tools or approaches that would help Ansh's team deliver more effectively. Work closely with the C-suite and program team: - Support the C-suite in building the product roadmap for our app and website, bringing a technical perspective on feasibility, sequencing, and trade-offs. - Bring a technical perspective into strategic planning conversations, so Ansh's data and tooling keep pace with its growth ambitions. - Partner with M& E and program leads to prioritise what gets built next, based on what will most improve data quality, decision-making, or field operations. Requirements: - Around 3+ years of relevant experience, including hands-on work developing mobile or low-code app platforms (FlutterFlow, Flutter, or comparable front-end platforms). - Comfortable using AI-assisted coding tools (e. g. Claude Code) as part of a modern development workflow, with the discipline to keep the resulting code maintainable rather than simply expedient. - Comfortable managing accounts, access, and basic security practices across a small set of tools and platforms. - Strong communication skills, with the ability to translate requirements from non-technical colleagues into technical specifications, and to explain technical trade-offs back to them clearly. - High ownership and agency: comfortable being the primary technical owner of these systems in a rapidly growing organisation, and able to resolve blockers independently. - Adaptability: comfortable supporting new technology projects as they arise. - Fluent in English; based in India and comfortable working remotely with a distributed, mission-driven team. - Deep alignment with Ansh's mission, and a serious, evidence-based commitment to impact. Strongly preferred/nice to have: - Direct experience with FlutterFlow specifically. - Experience with website builders such as Wix, Webflow, or similar. - Experience integrating data from custom-built mobile or field applications into analytics tools. - Experience contributing to product prioritisation or roadmap discussions. - Familiarity with data privacy and security considerations for health data. - Fluency in Hindi. Company Summary Globally, 2.4 million children died in the first month of life in 2020 India alone accounted for 22% of these newborn deaths. The leading risk factor for mortality among children under five years of age is low birth weight, which is responsible for more than 80% of neonatal deaths. A simple solution holds the potential to significantly reduce these deaths: placing low birth weight infants directly onto the mother's chest for skin-to-skin contact, an intervention known as Kangaroo Care (KC). KC entails not only prolonged and continuous skin-to-skin contact but also exclusive breastfeeding and close monitoring of the infant. KC has proven to effectively reduce mortality and morbidity rates by around 33% (compared to the standard of care using electric incubators) by preventing hypothermia, fighting infections like sepsis, and helping the newborn gain weight through the caregiver's heat. However, adoption barriers for kangaroo care in LMICs, such as India, persist. These include insufficient equipment, a shortage of human resources, and a lack of privacy within healthcare facilities. Many of our target healthcare facilities even lack the infrastructure for conventional standard of care (i. e., electric incubators), further amplifying the potential impact of Kangaroo Care in low-resource settings. Our approach is both direct and cost-effective: repurpose existing hospital spaces to facilitate KC, provide essential equipment like infant weighing scales and cloth binders, and expand capacity by training and hiring health workers (HW) dedicated to teaching and monitoring KC for mothers in the wards. Why Join Us Ansh is committed to equal opportunity. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and strongly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented in this sector. We do not discriminate based on gender, age, disability, caste, religion or belief, sexual orientation, marital status, or race. We are looking for someone genuinely interested in people and equally comfortable with the process. You will need to hold confidence, tell leadership things they may not want to hear, and keep the administrative backbone of the function running!
