Full Stack Engineer — United States

Shift Robotics is seeking a versatile Mobile & Full-Stack Engineer who enjoys connecting mobile applications, hardware, and cloud infrastructure. This role is suited to an engineer who thinks beyond individual features and understands how software is designed, built, secured, tested, deployed, and maintained.

About The Company

Shift Robotics builds technology that brings together software and physical devices. The company values strong engineering fundamentals, practical collaboration, and thoughtful experimentation. Its teams work across mobile platforms, embedded hardware, and cloud services to create connected product experiences. Shift Robotics encourages engineers to explore modern development practices, including AI-assisted tools and cross-platform approaches, while choosing solutions that meet product and user needs.

About The Role

As a Mobile & Full-Stack Engineer, you will develop and support applications for iOS and Android, connect mobile experiences with Bluetooth-enabled devices, and contribute to the backend services that support those products. You will work across the application lifecycle, from technical design and API development to automated testing, release management, and production support.

This position calls for hands-on experience with native development in Swift and Kotlin, as well as the ability to collaborate with hardware, product, and design partners. You will also have the opportunity to use AI-assisted development tools to improve prototyping, implementation, debugging, and documentation. Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform or other cross-platform strategies is welcome, but strong native engineering skills are central to the role.

Qualifications

• At least three years of professional mobile application development experience, with a portfolio of applications released through the Apple App Store and Google Play.

• Strong foundational knowledge of Swift and Kotlin, including native iOS and Android development practices.

• Demonstrated experience using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) APIs and building reliable communication between mobile applications and hardware.

• Hands-on experience with cloud platforms such as Google Cloud Platform or AWS, particularly in support of backend services.

• Familiarity with mobile release processes, including App Store Connect, Google Play Console, and CI/CD tools such as GitHub Actions, Fastlane, or GitLab Runner.

• Working knowledge of RESTful APIs, object-oriented design, clean architecture, application security, and software testing.

• Comfort using AI-assisted coding tools responsibly to support development work and improve efficiency.

• Clear communication skills and the ability to work effectively with engineers and cross-functional partners.

• Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform or another cross-platform approach is an advantage.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, test, and maintain high-quality mobile applications for iOS and Android, prioritizing reliability, performance, accessibility, and a consistent user experience.

• Develop and maintain BLE functionality that enables secure, dependable communication between mobile applications and embedded devices.

• Collaborate with hardware engineers, product partners, and UI/UX designers to translate product concepts into complete user experiences.

• Integrate cloud services and develop or optimize APIs that support mobile application features and connected-device workflows.

• Contribute to application security, including authentication, backend authorization, data protection, and encrypted over-the-air firmware update processes.

• Support the end-to-end release lifecycle by improving CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, deployment processes, and ongoing application maintenance.

• Use AI development tools to assist with prototyping, code generation, debugging, and technical documentation, applying sound engineering judgment to all results.

Benefits

• Potential participation in employee stock option programs.

• 401(k) retirement plan.

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance.

• Sick leave, vacation time, flexible time for salaried employees, and paid holidays.
