The Role:

We’re looking for someone with a very high emotional intelligence (or EQ) that LOVES shipping code and building products that customers use.

You can hear what’s not being said and identify unspoken customer needs.

You are an engineer who understands what it takes to build a product that solves a problem. You know how to work with designers and engineers to build products and prioritize. You have the courage to say no to anything but essential items.

As a Senior Mobile Engineer you will report to the Engineering Manager for Passbook.

You'll help shape and accomplish a backlog of features designed to improve our product in creative ways. You’ll partner with a passionate team of engineers, product managers, and designers dedicated to understanding and meeting our customers’ needs. Most of all, you should care about improving our customers’ experiences.

What you’ll do:

• You'll create customer-facing product features and bug fixes, with a focus on quality and customer value.
• You'll help guide the technical direction of the mobile app experience to ensure that we are moving quickly while setting ourselves up for success in the future.
• You'll expand the Passbook product with new experiences that improve how we onboard customers and protect their accounts.
• You'll participate in the ideation, technical design, and grooming of new features with a data-driven and customer-centric viewpoint.
• You'll work with other developers, product managers, designers, and analysts to build great product experiences.
• You'll add to the shared patterns and combined knowledge of our product engineering teams.

Who you are:

• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field or equivalent experience
• 5+ years of building mobile or web consumer software products.
• An understanding of software development practices, design patterns and CS concepts
• Experience with shipping code (side projects, open source, anything counts)
• Comfortable building, shipping, and maintaining services and systems on AWS
• Proficiency in JavaScript or Typescript (preferred). Bonus if you are fluent in React Native and ReactJS ecosystems.

Our Benefits:
