What You'll Be Doing
As an early-stage Mobile Software Developer, you'll take significant ownership of the app's architecture and user experience. You'll build our mobile technical foundation from the ground up, making the key calls on UI architecture, state management, API integration and performance monitoring.
Own the product beyond the interface: You'll take full accountability for your features end to end. That means managing complex local state, building smooth user journeys and ensuring native-level performance. You'll write, ship and iterate on your own code.
Design scalable, smart architecture: You'll build a robust mobile foundation using patterns like MVVM or TCA that connect seamlessly with our Effect-based backend and AI systems. Expect to take on tough engineering challenges around real-time synchronization, offline-first capabilities and streaming AI responses.
Keep the technical bar high: You'll track down and fix performance issues like sluggish render cycles or slow app startup times. At the same time, you'll push for better maintainability, strict type safety and a consistent UX across the codebase.

Startup experience: You're at home in fast-paced, evolving environments.
Balanced AI approach: You knew how to code before Cursor and Claude Code, but you understand how to put them to good use.
Product passion: Strong identification with our mission to transform education.
