Staff Mobile Engineer

The Role

Now we're looking for a Staff Mobile Engineer to serve as a technical leader and contributor for our mobile code that powers our connected sleep ecosystem. You'll be a leader on engineering development for our mobile apps. That means the iOS and Android apps that keep millions of devices humming in real homes.

• Lead delivery of features
• Jump into production issues or improvements
• Debug cross-platform problems spanning mobile/firmware/backend

What You'll Do

First 90 Days:

• Learn & Contribute
• Review existing codebase and identify immediate technical improvements
• Ship meaningful code to production and begin to establish credibility with the engineering team

First 6 Months:

• Drive Real Impact
• Technical Leadership
• Build context on how the full mobile platform fits together
• Contribute meaningfully to your team’s initiatives — shipping features, improving platform reliability, and driving daily app engagement
• Architectural Ownership
• Understand problem spaces, partner with stakeholders to shape architectural problems and solutions, and bring proposals to Mobile Strategy and Engineering Forum meetings
• Engine Mentorship
• Provide feedback and support for other engineers
• Cross-functional Collaboration
• Work closely with Product, Design, QA, and other stakeholders to scope, plan, and rapidly ship features
• AI Integration
• Champion AI-assisted development practices within your team — not just using the tools yourself, but creating the conditions where others adopt them faster and go deeper

First Year:

• Transform & Scale
• Strategic Impact
• Drive business strategy through mobile initiatives and shape the roadmap across the mobile organization — contributing to decisions that benefit all pillars and the people who use Hatch every night
• Raise the AI Bar
• Help define what "good" looks like so that as new engineers join, there's a standard to onboard into, not just an assumption

What You'll Bring

• Deep Mobile Craft
• You’ve spent 6+ years building mobile apps that matter. Experience in iOS with Swift/SwiftUI is required, and experience on Android with Kotlin/Jetpack Compose is nice to have as well. You care about code quality, reliability, and making great experiences for real people.
• Tech Leadership
• You love leading by example—writing production code, unblocking others, leading architectural decision-making, and helping teams make smart, pragmatic decisions. You’re as comfortable setting direction as you are rolling up your sleeves.
• Mentorship
• You believe great teams make great products. You’ve mentored other engineers, built trust, and created environments where people do their best work.
• Collaborative Energy
• You thrive in cross-functional spaces—partnering with Product, Design, and other engineering leaders to turn ideas into reality. You communicate clearly and lead with empathy.
• AI Curiosity
• You’re genuinely excited about what AI unlocks—how it can make us more effective builders and open new ways to serve our customers.
• Broad Technical Reach
• You bring experience with modern mobile tooling, CI/CD, testing, and cloud services—and you’re always eager to explore new technologies, tech stacks, and approaches.
