Full Stack Engineer, Mobile at Shift Robotics

We are looking for a versatile, forward-thinking Mobile & Full-Stack Engineer who loves bridging the gap between hardware, mobile platforms, and cloud infrastructure. You aren’t just a mobile developer; you understand the entire app lifecycle, from DevOps pipelines to backend services.

We value strong engineering fundamentals in native technologies ( Kotlin and Swift), but we are highly progressive—we embrace modern workflows, actively encourage the leverage of AI tools to speed up development, and are open-minded toward cross-platform ideas.

If you love deep-diving into Bluetooth/BLE protocols one day, deploying cloud functions the next, and utilizing cutting-edge AI to automate the boring stuff, we want to talk to you.

Responsibilities

• Cross-Platform & Native Development: Design, build, and maintain high-performance applications for both iOS and Android, ensuring a seamless user experience.
• Hardware Interfacing: Work deeply with Bluetooth/BLE technologies on mobile apps to interact securely and reliably with embedded devices.
• Full-Stack & DevOps Ownership: Integrate and manage backends using Cloud (e.g. GCP, AWS...etc.) services. Own the app-related lifecycle, including CI/CD pipelines and deployment automated testing.
• End-to-End Security: Implement robust security features, including user authentication, backend service authorization, and encrypted Over-The-Air (OTA) firmware upgrades.
• AI-Driven Efficiency: Actively leverage AI development tools (e.g., Cursor, LLMs) to accelerate prototyping, code generation, debugging, and documentation.
• API Crafting: Develop and optimize APIs to support robust mobile functionality.
• Collaborate & Innovate: Partner with hardware teams and UI/UX designers to bring products from concept to the hands of users.

Requirements

• Experience: 3+ years of professional mobile app development experience with a strong portfolio of shipped apps in the App Store and Google Play.
• Language Mastery: Strong, foundational knowledge of Swift and Kotlin (Native Android/iOS development).
• IoT/Wireless Tech: Proven experience working with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) APIs and hardware-to-mobile communication.
• Cloud & Infrastructure: Hands-on experience with Cloud (e.g. GCP, AWS...etc.) (or similar cloud ecosystems) for backend services.
• Lifecycle & DevOps: Familiarity with the mobile deployment lifecycle, including App Store Connect, Google Play Console, and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Fastlane, Gitlab Runner...etc).
• AI Tooling: Comfort and efficiency using AI-assisted coding tools to maximize output.
• Core CS Fundamentals: Strong grasp of RESTful APIs, OOP design principles, application security, and clean architecture.
• Bonus (Nice-to-have): Experience with, or a strong interest in, Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) or other cross-platform strategies.

Benefits

• Opportunities for participation in our Employee Options programs
• 401K retirement plan
• Excellent medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Sick and Vacation time (Flex time for salary positions), and Paid Holidays
• Massive Growth Opportunities and a long-term career
• Casual and comfortable work environment
