Description
We're assisting a fast growing startup in the music tech space with their search for their first mobile engineer. Their product uses AI to transcribe audio into sheet music. The role will work onsite in their SF office.
What you'll own:
Mobile app development from zero to one — the entire codebase for iOS (now) and Android (next)
Shipping fast and iterating — specs and design mocks into production at exceptional speed; prototype, then refine on user feedback and usage data
The mobile UX end to end — haptics, feel, the "make it nice" bar
As the team grows, guiding junior devs and helping set mobile engineering culture and best practices
Being the redundancy: owning the app so it keeps moving without the CTO in the loop
What you'll bring:
1+ years of full-time mobile development experience, including shipping and maintaining consumer mobile apps with significant user bases
Strong command of the full mobile stack: modern mobile frameworks (e.g., React Native, Swift, Kotlin, or similar), Next.js, Tailwind, backend-as-a-service platforms (Supabase strongly preferred), authentication, payments, database design, and API integration
