We are looking for a Senior Mobile Engineer to join our extensibility team, which is responsible for maintaining all our various integrations, including for Android and iOS.
At PostHog, we are a small (but growing) remote team building an open source platform that empowers customers to create successful products.
Until now, tools for building products have been fragmented, Product analytics, heat maps, session recording and A/B testing all provide immense value, but existing tools weren’t natively built to work together.
PostHog is different by offering these tools (and more) in a single platform that customers can host themselves.
We started PostHog as part of Y Combinator’s W20 cohort and had the most successful B2B software launch on HackerNews since 2012 - with a product that was just 4 weeks old.
We are proudly backed by some of the world’s top investors and believe in product-led growth, where we build something awesome and let your product bring the users, rather than an outbound sales team and regular cold calls.
We have a lot of capital, but we’re a lean, strong team - so you’ve got the opportunity to have a huge impact.
What you'll be doing:
- Maintaining the integrations between PostHog and various mobile platforms (Android, Android Wear, iOS, iPadOS, WatchOS, React Native, Expo, .)
- Adding support for new features in existing integrations, e.g. add feature flags into all mobile libraries
- Building new integrations when needed, for example we need to build a pure-JS Expo (React Native) integration, our current React Native integration uses native code
- Improving our integration testing and deployment infrastructure
- Assuring we meet all privacy and compliance requirements set by Apple and Google, so that people using our libraries won't get their apps flagged
- Work on the rest of the PostHog platform in the Extensibility team, e.g. by improving our plugin server
- Tread on toes and do whatever else is needed, this might include working on the main PostHog app, fix random issues you encounter, help with infrastructure, anything and everything is possible
Requirements
What you'll bring:
- At least 4-5 years of Android and iOS development experience, over many iterations of phone operating systems
- A high level of proficiency in both Java and Objective-C
- Ideally, you'll have a high level of proficiency in Swift, Kotlin and JavaScript
Benefits
What we offer in return:
- Generous, transparent compensation and employee-friendly equity in PostHog
- Unlimited, permissionless vacation with a 25 day minimum
- Private health insurance including dental and vision provided for our team in the UK
- Pension contributions
- Generous parental leave
- Training budget and free books
- 150/month budget towards co-working or café working
- Spill mental health chat
- Regular in-person get-togethers with the team (once Covid allows us to travel)
- Carbon offsetting for work travel with Project Wren
Please note that benefits vary slightly by country. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask our team.
