Senior Software Engineer, Mobile

Bubble is a revolutionary software development platform with a simple mission: make technology accessible to everyone and help people bring their ideas to life. Rather than specializing in one or two aspects of web development, Bubble’s full-stack visual programming interface does it all, allowing you to customize your UX with a drag-and-drop editor, build out logic, manage databases, and integrate with anything via plugins and API. 

With all the tools needed to build a site like Facebook or Airbnb, anyone from first-time entrepreneurs to enterprise-level companies can take an idea from concept to fully functional, scalable reality faster and cheaper than you could with just code. As the only full-stack, no-code platform on the market with over 3 million users in over 100 countries, Bubble is breaking down the barriers to entrepreneurship and innovation across the globe.

What we’ve achieved:

Our product is working, and we are thriving. Entire VC-backed companies have been built entirely on Bubble. After finding product market fit and 8 years of bootstrapping, we raised a $100 million Series A and we’re one of the fastest-growing companies in the New York tech ecosystem. 

You can build just about anything on Bubble. For example, all new hires build Bubble apps as part of their onboarding, and a recent hire on our Customer Success team built their own version of the social media application Goodreads in 4 days. It has user authentication, an activity feed, upvotes, commenting, followers, lists, account management, live updates, a fully loaded database, API connectivity, and more.

About the role:

Bubble is simultaneously a no-code design tool, a Turing-complete programming language, and a hosting platform as a service. As you might imagine, the technical challenges we face are interesting and diverse. We view ourselves as still early-stage in our long-term product journey, and there is unlimited scope for engineers to shape our future direction.

Engineers at Bubble are expected to have a strong voice in both product and technical direction, ship a lot of code, drive technical excellence, and teach and learn from their colleagues. We have a culture that emphasizes trust and autonomy, where teams are given problems to tackle rather than solutions to implement.

Our Mobile Team:

As part of the team working on Bubble’s core product, the Bubble Editor, you will help enhance our drag-and-drop interface that empowers users to build and design their applications, specifically for mobile app development. Our current focus includes modernizing the developer interface, making applications more modular with shared functionality, and improving team collaboration within Bubble. Your contributions will span both the programming language and the integrated development environment (IDE) that our users rely on to create their applications.

We are looking for:

• 6+ years’ industry experience as a software engineer, preferably at high-growth startups

• Must have significant experience building with React Native

• Experience leading projects and designing technical solutions

• Strong coding skills and the ability to mentor other engineers

• Excellent communication

• Alignment with our values: a desire to empower others, a focus on team and user success over individual achievement, and transparency and willingness to admit mistakes and failures

Our tech stack:

While we do not require new hires to be experts in our tech stack on day 1, familiarity and a willingness to learn fast is helpful. Our tech stack includes:

• Frontend: Typescript, SolidJS, React Native

• Backend: Typescript, Node.js, Rust, Redis, Postgres, TimescaleDB

• Infrastructure: AWS - CDK / Terraform / Lambda, Kafka, ECS, Typescript, Elastic

Compensation:

We offer competitive compensation aligned to tier one markets, such as New York City, San Francisco, and Seattle. Our estimated salary for this role at Bubble ranges from $157,000 to $213,000. Actual pay is determined by multiple factors such as skills, qualifications, experience and market demand.

Location:

For this role, Bubble is currently only considering candidates who are authorized to work in the US and are within the  New York City metro area. We will provide relocation assistance to those who are interested in moving to the NYC area.

We prefer hiring people within commuting distance of our NYC office because we value getting together in person regularly. For those who enjoy working from our Manhattan office on a more regular basis, we offer catered lunches, and happy hours, among other fun perks.

Benefits:

In addition to cash and equity compensation, Bubble offers a robust benefits package equating to roughly twenty thousand in additional annual compensation:

Our benefits include, but are not limited to:

• Comprehensive health coverage

• 401(k) Matching

• Wellness and Work Enablement stipends

• Flexible PTO

• A Sabbatical program
