Senior Mobile Engineer, Health
About The Position
Babylist is looking for a passionate Senior Mobile Engineer to join our Babylist Health and Education team. Launched in October 2022, Babylist Health provides a user-friendly and transparent way for people to purchase breast pumps and breast pump accessories through insurance. We are now embarking on an exciting new initiative to bring education to families, offering resources, classes, and content to help them prepare for and navigate parenthood. As a Senior Mobile Engineer, you will be an integral part of shaping and enhancing this experience, collaborating closely with designers, product managers, and engineers to build intuitive, high-quality mobile apps used by millions of users. You will lead business-critical projects, make important decisions about how our systems grow and scale, and work on new strategic initiatives to expand our health and education offerings as we grow this business.
Requirements
- You build production-quality iOS or Android apps in Swift or Kotlin — you have deep expertise in one platform and solid working knowledge of the other, and you can speak fluently to the tradeoffs between them
- You're fluent in mobile architecture patterns — MVVM, MVC, and others — and you reach for the right one based on what you're building, not habit
- You know your platform's UI frameworks well — SwiftUI and/or Jetpack Compose, UIKit, Auto Layout, Jetpack libraries — and you build components in code, not just configure them
- You've shipped consumer-facing mobile products to real users and you care about what the experience feels like, not just whether the tests pass
- You've partnered closely with designers — you know how to read a Figma file, push back when something won't work on mobile, and close the gap between design intent and implementation
- You collaborate naturally with backend and full-stack engineers — you have opinions about API design and you're not afraid to say so
- You naturally reach for AI in your work — at Babylist, every team uses AI daily. You're already using it to move faster and improve your output, and you stay curious about what's coming next.
Responsibilities
- Build and ship features across the Babylist iOS and Android apps — you own the full development lifecycle on your work, from spec to production
- Lead the mobile build-out of Babylist's new education experience — classes, content, and resources for families preparing for parenthood
- Drive performance improvements on both platforms — you identify the bottlenecks, not just the symptoms
- Write clean, testable, maintainable code and hold the bar for the team around you — not just in your own PRs
- Translate complex requirements into intuitive interfaces in partnership with your PM and designer — you're in the room when decisions get made, not handed specs after the fact
- Collaborate with full-stack engineers on API design and architecture — you bring the mobile-first perspective to cross-platform decisions
Benefits
- Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance
- Retirement savings plan with company matching and flexible spending accounts
- Generous paid parental leave and PTO
- Remote work stipend to set up your office
- Perks for physical, mental, and emotional health, parenting, childcare, and financial planning
