Senior iOS Developer

We're building a game tech platform for discovering and creating engaging gaming experiences.

We need a driven, enthusiastic and passionate Android developer who is still fascinated and excited about the potential of great apps and mobile-based games. Devs who are or have been gamers will be a better fit for this role. You'll build something that sits at the intersection of TikTok, Steam and Roblox. 

We promise a great learning and working experience with a team of entrepreneurs, devs, gamers, animators, award-winning UI/UX designers and advisors who have been CXOs of billion-dollar companies. You'll be in the company of many highly accomplished yet humble individuals who want to build something amazing together.

We are building our platform with a mobile-first approach for the mobile-first world, so we naturally focus a lot on UI topics like intelligent user nudges, app micro-interactions and in-app animations far more than normal app dev roles. You'd have a fun-filled and fantastic growth curve with us.

We have built an interesting and engaging gaming-based culture and you'd be required to play games and build gaming experiences as a part of your job here. 

Our startup hires with a talent-first approach and we value skill and drive levels far more than just brand-name colleges on your resume. We have hired many people from these top colleges, but we hired them purely based on their skills and cultural fit. We find it worth mentioning that many people from these top colleges couldn't make it through our interview process too. 

We want this to be your first or second job and we'll work tirelessly to make this your last one.
