Foodily is looking for a lead mobile engineer to join our Eat-At-Home Revolution & change the way people discover and talk about cooking. We’re looking for someone with a solid 3 to 5 years hands-on experience in developing mobile applications, particularly apps that lean heavily on social sharing. You’ll be responsible for planning, requirements, coding & coordinating developer team to deliver Foodily apps. Bonus points if you have launched products you’ve both loved and have been ashamed of.
This is an amazing opportunity to join in on the ground floor of what the NY Times says is the new center of digital trends & innovation: FOOD, and what HuffPo, the Webby Awards and others have defined as one of the hottest and most innovative new digital food brands.
A bit on what we are and are not: We are a 100-percent jerk free environment. You will laugh – often – while helping to create, develop, and run a range of products. We encourage dissenting opinions and a better idea on anything and everything we do. We are an energetic creative-driven culture above all else but we also love data and metrics and empowering increased revenues.
We’re open to distance commuting, but ideally this role is based in Manhattan or San Francisco. Competitive salary, great benefits, fun and perks, and you get to develop new UX and products while you work with some of the best and smartest people around. And, oh yes, please no managers looking to join us in a product role…this is a hands-on development job.
