What NewsPlus does

Founded in 2014, NewsPlus operates in Media & Entertainment offering a fully automated news aggregation platform that provides breaking news, local stories, and a personalised feed based on users' interests. The platform utilises machine learning and natural language processing to select the most relevant stories from a vast number of articles published globally, delivering content in ten languages to audiences in India, Southeast Asia, and the USA. Users can engage with friends, share stories, and curate content into personalised magazines, as well as publish their own stories easily through the app. NewsPlus prioritises local sources and maintains brand safety by avoiding fake news and unsafe content. Designed for developing countries, the app ensures a reliable experience even on slow mobile networks while accommodating both casual and experienced users.

No open roles recorded right now.

That does not mean they are not hiring — plenty of roles never reach a job board. The careers page below is the earliest place a new opening appears.

Why this matters to you: funding stage is a rough proxy for how long the runway is and how much structure to expect. It is not a promise, and a profitable bootstrapped company can be the safer bet.

Check the company’s own careers page — linked at the top — before a job board. A role appears there first, sometimes weeks before it is syndicated anywhere else.
