APPLY NOW
The ecosystem has come a long way, and we are proud of our contributions, but there are still opportunities to grow and improve the KMP community. We plan to keep introducing new teams to KMP and developing new tools and techniques to help them succeed. With the growth of the Kotlin Multiplatform community, we know there are talented KMP developers out there. We look forward to sharing knowledge and amplifying our impact on the industry together. Come join our other team members in Latin America!
About the Role
- Because both startups and the largest public companies seek us out to help them build their mobile products, our team members get the opportunity to work on a variety of interesting projects as well as contribute to our open-source endeavors. This is a fully remote position with the ability to work anywhere within Latin America.
- As a Kotlin Multiplatform Developer at Touchlab, you’ll be:
- Advising clients on KMP best practices and architecture
- Building quality applications based on KMP technology
- Experimenting, learning, and coaching others in Multiplatform strategies
- A core contributor to open source and internal products
- Performing peer code reviews and helping us all get better
- Improving our process in regular retrospectives
What we are looking for
- We are looking for developers with significant Kotlin Multiplatform experience. The community is still relatively new, so we expect everybody’s path to be a little different. Be sure to include what you’ve been working on professionally or “on the side,” maybe a little bit about what you’d like to do and/or where you see the future of Kotlin.
- Below is some of the experience we would expect to see from a successful candidate:
- 3+ years of professional native mobile (Android or iOS) development experience or demonstrable equivalent skills
- Strong understanding of Kotlin language features and ecosystem
- Experience writing and deploying Kotlin Multiplatform shared code targeting both Android and iOS applications
- Functional ability to configure and debug Kotlin/Native and/or Xcode tooling and builds (you know a linker issue vs a compiler issue, understand how to sort out a compiler crash, etc)
- The ability to work at least 5 hours of the workday that crosses over with EST.
- Advanced English
Not required, but we’re particularly interested in people with:
- Experience in a client-facing role
- KMP Library development and publishing experience
- Significant native iOS development experience
- Familiarity with non-mobile KMP targets (js, native)
- Blog posts/talks on KMP topics
- Filed issues with core Kotlin or libraries
