Shortform Lead

Bangalore
Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.

Since public launch, Emergent has reached $50M ARR in 7 months. 5M+ users across 190+ countries have built 6M+ applications on Emergent. We’ve raised $100M, backed by Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.

We’re solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.

We’re hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

  • Ideate, script, shoot, and ship engaging short-form videos end-to-end.
  • Translate product features, launches, and use cases into snackable, high-retention content.

  • Collaborate with design, product, and growth teams for aligned messaging.
  • Track performance metrics and iterate quickly based on what’s working.

  • Strong understanding of platform-native content, trends, and algorithms.
  • Proven ability to consistently ship high-quality, high-frequency shortform content.

  • Good visual sense, storytelling ability, and attention to detail.
  • Data-aware mindset with an experimental approach.
Good to Have
  • Experience at fast-growing startups or internet-first brands.
  • Familiarity with creator-led or product-led growth.
