About AM:PM

AM:PM is a VC-backed news platform built for short-form video, reels, and fast threads, for Gen Z and millennials who want to stay informed without sitting through long, slow panels. We go deep without going slow. We understand internet culture because we live in it.

Why this role matters

We’re not building another news app, we’re trying to revolutionise the form.

You’ll define what AM:PM looks and feels like across three product surfaces, and you’ll ship directly with the founding team and CTO.

What you will own
End-to-end design of the AM:PM app across all three surfaces, wraps, newsroom, discourse
Design the interaction (opinion / counter-opinion swap) so it feels native, not novel
Build and maintain the AM:PM design system from the brand foundation up
Use Claude, Figma, and AI tools to ship faster (startup speed, not agency speed)
Run usability calls with real Gen Z users and incorporate what you learn
Work directly with the founding team + CTO to ship what you design (no throw-overs)
Experiment fast: kill what doesn’t work, double down on what does

Who you are
1+ years designing consumer mobile products that shipped to real Gen Z users
Visual range (not one aesthetic across every project)
Ships at startup pace (screens and flows move rapid)




High ownership default; doesn’t wait for a brief
Strong opinions and taste; can defend them and change mind when wrong
Lives in Figma; uses AI tools to move faster
Comfortable with motion, prototyping, and system thinking
Based in Mumbai or willing to relocate within commutable distance (hybrid)

Bonus
You have shipped or designed for a vertical video product before, you have worked on a Gen Z app (any consumer product targeting 18–30 year olds), or you have a robust personal point of view on what's broken about news apps today.

What we’re not looking for
Designers who only do “clean minimal”
Agency-trained pixel pushers who need a full brief
Fixed-hours mindset (e.g., strict clock-out when something is broken/shipping)
Portfolios showing one visual language across every project

Pay: ₹300,000.00 - ₹900,000.00 per year

Perks:
Provident Fund
