You will also work with counterparts on the product team to build and deliver a delightful mobile experience for our users.

Our ideal candidate is someone who has prior experience leading, growing, and managing distributed mobile engineering teams.

Our team

Our Engineering and Product teams are structured as autonomous squads that execute within one focal area toward a defined product vision. We're hardcore believers in easy-to-use software, and our main goal as Product Engineers is to quickly and continuously deliver meaningful value to our customers. Crafting a delightful user experience is hard work, but we welcome the challenge and are looking for team members who share our ambition. We've optimized our CI/CD tools and release processes to ship on a weekly cadence.
