Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile Developer (Remote)

Touchlab is looking for Mobile Developers! We are the global experts in Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM) tech. As KMM adoption continues to grow, we want to work with engineers who want to become experts in the tech and help shape the future of the platform. We’re looking for someone who has Android/Kotlin experience and is eager to dive into KMM development. The ideal candidate has some iOS experience, but we know most Android devs need to learn these skills, and we’re the best place to learn! 

In your role, you will be working with clients to implement mobile projects, using a blend of Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile and platform-native technologies. You will have opportunities to contribute to both our open source and internal products, as well as speaking and publishing opportunities. We have been involved in the Android and native mobile communities for years and will be increasing that involvement going forward.

What you will be doing

  • Build quality applications based on product requirements
  • Experiment, learn, and coach others in Multiplatform strategies
  • Bring design mock-ups to life and create attractive UI’s
  • Perform peer code reviews and help us all get better
  • Improve our process in weekly retrospectives

Must-Have

  • 2+ years of professional Android development experience, or demonstrable equivalent skills. Open source contributions and individual projects will be considered as well (not school projects)
  • Strong familiarity with Kotlin on the JVM
  • Understanding of various Android libraries and recent best-practice technologies and libraries
  • Familiarity with Git, GitHub, and good version control practices
  • Strong interest in Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile development

Nice-to-Have

  • iOS and XCode familiarity
  • Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform
  • Experience working in an Agile team
  • Open source contributions

What We Offer

This position has an estimated annual salary range of $100,000 to $130,000, plus opportunities for bonuses. Actual compensation packages are based on a wide array of factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to demonstrated skill set, and years and depth of relevant experience. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for the position across the US.

In addition to competitive fair salaries, Touchlab provides a comprehensive benefits package. Our team receives company-sponsored health, dental, vision, life & disability insurance, and the option to participate in our 401k program. We have a generous vacation policy, plus company holidays and a floating holiday (so you choose what’s important to you). We also offer the team budget for learning and development.

We’re all remote now! Everyone receives a remote work gear kit, including a company-supplied Apple machine.  We get together for team events (virtual right now, obviously), regular lunches, and team socializing. It’s a big plus if your dog can make an appearance on Zoom (we don’t discriminate against cats, either).

Who We Are

We are a growing team of people with a breadth of backgrounds in different industries. Our team is great at what they do. That doesn’t mean everyone shows up with a crazy Stack Overflow score, but it does mean we’re hungry to learn and support each other in growing our knowledge and skills. We work collaboratively and believe we can help shape the future of mobile through Kotlin Multiplatform.

For the last decade, Touchlab has been at the forefront of mobile product development. Today that means helping our clients build products in a world where mobile platforms have matured. When engineering leaders need to accelerate feature development, maximize engineering efficiency, and future-proof their teams and products, they partner with us. We train and advise on mobile best practices, develop apps for all platforms, and as the recognized global experts in Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile, we have been both a JetBrains and Google-certified agency.

Because both startups and the largest public companies seek us out to help them build their mobile products, our team members get the opportunity to work on a variety of interesting projects as well as contribute to our open-source endeavors.

Through our partnership with JetBrains and our community efforts, we are directly influencing the growth and adoption of KMM. We’ve contributed code to Kotlin/Native itself, built the most successful open-source starter kit for KMM, and released multiple KMM libraries that are being used by developers around the world. Check out our blog and JetBrains’ KMM portal to learn more.

We believe that embracing our unique diversity leads to success, and we’re working hard to build a diverse, equitable and inclusive team. Touchlab is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace for people of every gender identity and expression, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, age, veteran status, parental status, and any other identities. We strive for all to feel welcome and comfortable here.
