As an early member of the team, we hope you will also have a lot of impact on our team culture, processes and norms.
Taptap Send is a cross-platform mobile app developed with React Native and TypeScript, which talks to a backend service written in Kotlin and backed by a PostgreSQL database, all of which runs on AWS and is managed via Terraform and Ansible.

- Work closely with design and product teams to regularly ship working features
- Participate in release planning and deployment of released build
- Mentor and advise team members
- Evaluate and deliver timeline estimates for projects
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional experience building consumer facing applications
- Experience owning user-facing features end-to-end, from conception to launch
- Experience developing software in a collaborative, multi-functional, and fast-paced environment
- Proficiency with Kotlin, Java or similar backend language
- Experience working on systems that have real-world performance and reliability constraints
- Strong communication and ability to manage conflicting priorities, setting expectations with stakeholders and be a driving force
Ideally
- Experience working on a multi-platform mobile app with a significant volume of traffic
- High personal code/development standards (code review, unit testing, documentation, etc.)
