Founding Design Engineer

ABOUT THE ROLE

Join a small, early-stage consumer apps team as a Founding Design Engineer. You will own an app end to end, shaping its design and implementation and helping it improve after launch.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Build features from initial sketches through mobile release.
• Create polished, native-feeling screens and interactions, including motion and haptics.
• Develop product loops that encourage users to return.
• Review product data and speak with users to decide what to improve or remove.
• Stay involved with the product after launch and iterate based on what you learn.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Experience building and shipping consumer mobile apps with real users, ideally with work available to inspect in an app store or similar.
• Experience owning an app across design, implementation, data, and release.
• Ability to create visual and interaction designs and implement them in code.
• Experience with Flutter, Dart, Swift, or Kotlin, and familiarity with Firebase and TypeScript.
• Experience building products in a startup environment and independently moving work forward without detailed specifications.
• Ability to use product data and user conversations to guide decisions after launch.
