Want to build the next Sparrow? Streak (YC S11) is looking for mobile engineers
on Aug 1, 2012 | hide
We’re a YC summer 2011 company working on email. We’re two technical co-founders looking to bring on our first engineering hire. We can’t build features fast enough to keep up with users’ demands and our growth. That’s where you come in - we need someone who likes building product, pushing code everyday and making our service FAST.

* We believe every business process (sales, bug tracking, hiring, customer support, etc.) should be done using email - we just need two things: a)metadata inside email b)better email clients that understand this higher level of abstraction

* We’ve built V1 of our webapp on top of Gmail, but users are clamoring for mobile clients as well. We can’t just build on top of mail.app or android’s gmail - so we’re building a full blown email client (that’s where you come in) + streak functionality in native apps

* You’ll own the entire native app but work closely with a designer and the founders

* You’ll come up with a different mail + streak experience for mobile - not just a port of the web apps

Obviously:

- Great compensation and real ownership (both equity and over the product)

- We’ll make your life easier. Our benefits package is amazing

- We’re very well funded by elite silicon valley investors

Our requirements:

- you are intellectually curious

- you have built native mobile apps (iOS or Android) before

Email us at first@streak.com if you are interested and please include any mobile apps you’ve built in the past.
