    The job We are seeking a motivated, highly capable engineer to join our iOS development team.  You are a self-starter, excited to create meaningful impact through applications that support thousands of customers and millions of consumers every day.  

    You'll own projects from start to finish, working closely with our product and design team, applying scalable development patterns, maintainable code practices, and sharp technical decisions that inform and direct the architecture of the future.  

    We offer a high freedom/high responsibility work environment, competitive salary, and generous stock options.

    While we're eager to talk to anyone who shares our passion for connecting frontline workers, this isn't an entry level position.  We're looking for at least a couple years experience in a professional setting.

    After a successful first year, you will

    • Accelerate the velocity of the team by having delivered numerous small to medium-sized projects, developed primarily on your own
    • Understand the design and implementation of our iOS app sufficiently well to explain the key concepts to others
    • Have improved code quality by implementing tests with your delivered projects

     

    WHAT YOU'LL DO

    • Design, develop, test and deliver new features for the flagship Zello iOS app
    • Improve and enhance existing code using modern patterns and practices
    • Review and respond to app crashes, field issues, and customer feedback
    • Ramp quickly on new and existing technologies, apply them to complex problems, and share your learnings with the team

    WHAT YOU'LL BRING

    • Strong working knowledge of Objective C (+ iOS SDK) and Swift.  C++ experience a plus.
    • 2+ years of software development experience for iOS
    • Ideally at least one published app in the App Store -- include links in your resume or cover letter
    • Clear understanding of OOP, concurrency, synchronization, memory management and all the little things that make development complicated and interesting
    • Clear understanding of how networks work (TCP, UDP, sockets, HTTP, TLS etc) -- eg, how long does it take to send a 10 kB email over 1 Gbps Google Fiber link and why
    • Excellent communication skills, a positive attitude, and good sense of humor
    • Conscientiousness and attention to detail
    • Equally comfortable working collaboratively or independently #zr

    Zello offers top benefits including 100% employer-paid employee health insurance, dental and vision, a 401(k) with company match and no vesting requirement, stock options, unlimited PTO and sabbatical leave, allowances for technology and personal development, and a bunch of other perks.

    Zello is a small group of individuals whose mission is to bring people together using voice. We believe diverse skills, abilities, viewpoints, and backgrounds make for a better product, better problem-solving and a better work environment.
