ABOUT THE ROLE

Join a small, early-stage consumer apps team as a founding design engineer. You will take product ideas from sketch through implementation and release, helping shape the full mobile app experience.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Build mobile features from initial sketches through app store release.
• Create polished, native-feeling screens with thoughtful motion and haptic feedback.
• Develop product loops that encourage people to return to the app.
• Use product data and user conversations to evaluate features and improve the experience.
• Stay involved with the product after launch and refine what is not working.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Experience shipping mobile apps used by real people, with work that can be reviewed in an app store or similar setting.
• Experience designing visual and interaction details and implementing the resulting product code.
• Hands-on experience with Flutter, Swift, or Kotlin for mobile development.
• Familiarity with Firebase and TypeScript.
• Strong attention to detail, initiative in an open-ended environment, and the ability to use AI tools while understanding the code you ship.
