Founding Design Engineer

About the Role

Join a small, early-stage consumer technology team building mobile apps. You will own product work from the initial sketch through implementation, release, and ongoing improvement.

What You'll Do

• Build and ship mobile features from early concepts through app release.

• Design and implement polished, native-feeling screens, including motion and haptics.

• Develop product experiences that encourage users to return.

• Use product data and conversations with users to identify what to improve or remove.

• Continue working on products after launch and iterate based on how people use them.

What We're Looking For

• Experience shipping consumer mobile apps with real users and work that can be reviewed in an app store or similar.

• Experience building a consumer app with Flutter, Dart, or Swift, and working knowledge of mobile development with Flutter, Swift, or Kotlin.

• Ability to own an app across design, coding, data, and release.

• Strong visual and interaction design skills, paired with the ability to implement those designs in code.

• Experience building products at a startup and making independent progress without relying on detailed specifications.

• Experience using product data and user feedback to guide post-launch decisions.

• Familiarity with Firebase and TypeScript.
