WebinarRush solves the challenge African entrepreneurs face with selling through webinars. Existing platforms are either priced in dollars, too technical, or not designed for local realities—making them inaccessible for many coaches, creators, and small business owners. We provide an affordable, mobile-first solution that integrates local payments, automated follow-ups, and sales-focused features. WebinarRush is built for African entrepreneurs who want to grow their businesses by turning webinars into reliable, scalable sales channels without the stress of constant live sessions.
Job overview
- We’re looking for a Senior Full-stack JavaScript Developer who can finalize and ship the MVP version of our product: WebinarRush — an automated webinar platform built with React, TypeScript, and Supabase.
- The core of the product is already architected and partially developed. We need someone who can take what’s built, finish the remaining features, polish the experience, and help us launch in record time super fast.
- This is a long-term role if found a great fit.
- What We’re Building (WebinarRush)
- WebinarRush creates simulated live webinar experiences using pre-recorded videos and timed overlays like polls, CTAs, and chat messages. It simulates a real-time webinar experience without needing a live host.
- Think: Zoom meets WebinarJam — fully automated.
You’ll Be Working On
- Finalizing our core MVP components:
- Public registration system with confirmation emails
- Analytics dashboard for hosts
Completing Supabase integration for:
- User data
- Interaction/event logging
- Edge Functions
- Email triggers
- Polishing the responsive UI with Tailwind CSS + shadcn-ui.
Requirements
- Candidates should possess relevant qualifications with 5 – 7 years experience.
Technical Skills:
- Expert in React + TypeScript
- Strong with Vite, Tailwind CSS, shadcn-ui
- Real-world experience using Supabase (Auth, Edge Functions, RLS, Realtime, DB)
- Worked with YouTube/Vimeo APIs for embedded playback tracking
- Comfortable building event-driven UI interactions
- Familiarity with email flows (SendGrid/Postmark or Supabase SMTP).
Mindset:
- MVP-focused: You know how to build fast, smart, and lean
- Product-aware: You think like a user and know when to skip vs polish
- A finisher: You like closing the loop, not just building features
- Strong communicator: You don’t go dark or wait for someone to tell you what’s next.
Timeline & Availability:
- Start ASAP
- Deliver MVP within 2 – 3 weeks.
- Flexible hours, async-friendly — but you must communicate progress clearly and consistently, and prioritize high-level responsiveness.
Bonus If You Have:
- Built similar tools (webinar apps, online courses, simulated-live platforms)
- Experience with analytics dashboards or SaaS metrics
- Have launched a product yourself or helped others go to market fast
- Budget: We’re flexible depending on experience and most importantly, delivery speed.
- Open to a wide range of compensation options including equity if progress is fast and predictable.
