Staff Software Engineer – Genie One Mobile & Desktop

The shape of it

In the posting’s own words

As a Staff Software Engineer on the Genie One Mobile & Desktop team, you will define and deliver the technical foundations for this multi-surface experience. You will work at the intersection of Web UI, Mobile, Desktop, shared frontend infrastructure, and enterprise-grade authentication and governance. This is an opportunity to shape a product and an architecture that are still evolving rapidly: deciding what should be shared, what should be platform-specific, and how to keep the whole system coherent as new capabilities arrive.

What it asks for · 7

• 8+ years of software engineering experience and a track record of shipping and operating customer-facing products at scale.
• Staff-level technical leadership: setting direction across teams, making durable architecture decisions, and driving complex projects from definition through adoption.
• A hybrid product background spanning web UI, mobile, desktop, or shared frontend platforms—with the ability to drive across all of them.
• Strong experience with JavaScript or TypeScript and modern web frameworks such as React, plus hands-on experience with mobile or desktop application development.
• The ability to navigate and improve a dynamic codebase spanning shared web code, React Native or native modules, desktop shells, webviews, backend APIs, and CI/CD.
• Experience building secure, reliable products involving authentication, session management, enterprise networking, permissions, sensitive data, and enterprise device/application management such as Mobile Device Management (MDM) and Mobile Application Management (MAM).
• A customer-focused, bias-to-action mindset and excellent communication skills. You make pragmatic trade-offs, learn quickly, and collaborate effectively across engineering, product, design, and security.
