Like most mobile apps built in the past few years when starting up, a lot of shortcuts were made, optimizing for speed to market instead of the best user experience. Our current app was built by a 3rd party vendor. This just doesn't work anymore.
We started taking ownership of our app last year when we hired brilliant & passionate Mobile PM, iOS developer, and Android developer. We're currently in the final stages of rebuilding both our iOS & Android apps from the ground up, fixing the mistakes of the past. It has been a lot of work for everyone, but the end result will be worth it.
Although the job post is for someone who does both iOS & Android apps, don't let that deter you. We're not going to pass up on a talented and passionate iOS or Android developer
