Senior Software Engineer, Mobile Platform - Guest App

Role Description

We’re looking for a senior engineer who gets excited about operating at real scale — not just shipping a single mobile app, but owning the platform and distribution system behind thousands of them.

• Our Guest App powers thousands of branded restaurant apps across iOS and Android.
• We ship tens of thousands of releases every month through Apple and Google’s ecosystems.
• These apps are a key channel for restaurant owners — a direct way to build customer relationships and avoid expensive third-party delivery fees.
• We’re building an app experience that can compete with the best third-party apps, but it has to scale across tens of thousands of restaurants (and growing).
• Behind every release is a complex web of build pipelines, certificates, store workflows, compliance requirements, and operational safeguards.
• This role is at the center of transforming our Guest App into a true mobile platform.
• If you’ve ever wanted to own mobile distribution at scale — and build the tooling, guardrails, and automation that make it work — this is that opportunity.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience building and shipping production applications, including experience owning releases end-to-end.
• Strong experience with TypeScript.
• Experience building and maintaining mobile applications (React Native experience is a strong plus).
• Experience owning mobile app distribution — including shipping releases through the Apple App Store and/or Google Play.
• Experience improving CI/CD pipelines and automating build and release processes.
• Track record of increasing release reliability and operational visibility (monitoring, alerting, debugging production issues).
• Comfort navigating complex and sometimes opaque external systems (e.g., Apple/Google developer workflows, certificates, provisioning, store review processes, compliance requirements).
• Experience at a product-focused startup, scale-up, or technology company.
• High degree of cross-functional collaboration.
• Strong sense of ownership and drive, excellent communication, and a proactive approach to identifying and solving ambiguous, cross-cutting problems.

Requirements

• Improve our mobile developer experience — from local setup to CI/CD.
• Build guardrails, tooling, and automation that make shipping changes to thousands of apps safe and reliable.
• Increase release reliability and app freshness across Apple App Store and Google Play.
• Strengthen observability, monitoring, and operational workflows to quickly diagnose and resolve issues.
• Leverage AI tools to build automations at scale across our release and distribution workflows.
• Partner closely with our internal launch team — power their workflows, hear feedback quickly, and iterate.
• Contribute directly to the Guest App codebase when platform and product work intersect.
• Take ownership of cross-cutting technical initiatives from design through production.
• Provide thoughtful code reviews and technical leadership to raise the bar across the team.
• Help us build a great team — interview candidates, refer great engineers, and shape engineering culture.

Benefits

• The estimated starting base salary range for this role is $190K-220K depending on level, location, and experience, plus a generous pre-IPO equity package.
• Comprehensive health coverage.
• Work from anywhere (remote-first workplace).
• Unlimited PTO - plus extra fun perks!
