  • Interface with remote and distributed data sources and APIs
  • Troubleshoot, optimize and performance tune.
  • Work closely with the Product, UX, QA, Academic staff and the rest of the mobile team, to continually improve the development process and the product quality.
You have/are:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Master degree is desirable, but will waive this requirement entirely if you have significant and applicable real world experience.
  • At least 4 years experience writing apps for mobile platforms, at least 10 years experience in the software industry
  • A demonstrable track record of published and successful applications, preferably with millions of users
