10% Happier | Lead Developer | Boston, MA | ONSITE | Full Time

A clear, simple approach to meditation with a NY Times bestselling author and some of the most respected (and cool) meditation teachers on the planet. Launched last year, 8 person core team, venture-backed, growing quickly. (Here’s the app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/meditation-for-fidgety-skept... )

We're looking for a lead developer excited by the challenges of building a fast-growing + consumer mobile + meditation startup.

You're likely a full stack generalist with mobile experience, ready to tackle anything from architecting the back-end to coding our consumer apps (currently iOS only, Android coming soon). In addition to leading the technical direction of the company, you'll also help establish a strong engineering culture - mentoring, recruiting, development process, etc. Last but not least, you'll work on a product that actually makes people's lives better. (If you don't believe us, take a look at our reviews on the App Store.)

The product (for now) is our iOS app. It’s built in Swift & ReactiveCocoa. Our web-back end is Ruby on Rails and Postgres, all living atop Heroku. If you’re interested in functional programming & clean, readable code, we think you’ll like what you see - but there's plenty of room to make it better still.

The interview process involves (i) a 30min call, (ii) a 2hr culture interview, and (iii) a 2hr technical interview (followed by reference checks and conversations to answer any questions you have).

Email me derek@ (10percenthappier.com) if you’re interested.
