Mobile Developer

Planning Center is a product company that is owned and founded by a developer. The Mobile Engineering Team is looking for a developer to join us in building powerful mobile applications that support churches in their day-to-day ministry work.

Reporting to the Engineering Manager of the Mobile Engineering Team, you will join the team in maintaining and expanding our flagship mobile products.

We’re a fully remote company that relies on tools such as GitHub, Slack, Notion, and Zoom. We value asynchronous work while also encouraging pairing to shape work and/or tackle the harder problems. We meet together in person about 4 times a year in our main offices in Carlsbad, CA to continue fostering better working relationships.

We love our team. It’s one of the core pillars we work off of every day. Which is why we take care of you as best we can. Here are a few highlights, but you can find all of our benefits here.

Get Paid—We pay in the top 10% of the New York City Rates no matter where you live, contribute to 401k, match charity up to $2,000 a year, and have a generous allowance for continued education. 

The annual salary range for this position is $138,000–$178,000.

Be Healthy—100% remote, co-working stipend, generous paid sick time and vacation time, $200 a month for physical fitness and mental health, 95% medical & 100% dental premium health coverage.

Get Out—Paid Fridays off in the summer, every other Friday off the rest of the year, a month long sabbatical every 5 years, one week off a year to serve with a non-profit, 2 weeks vacation a year increasing to 3 over time.

The long haul—We hope you stay at Planning Center for as long as you’re able. This makes our code, processes, and support focused on scalability, longevity, teamwork, and humility.

No Ego—Planning Center is full of incredibly talented people who work hard and love what they do. But, more importantly, we love working as a team. We encourage pairing, teamwork, and a healthy PR culture. There’s no room for rockstars here.

The ideal candidate for our Mobile Engineering team has several years of experience with a deep understanding of React Native, Android development, and object-oriented programming. You’ll be taking on projects that touch our admin and congregant-facing React Native and native applications. You’ll help our team ensure we build in a way that scales as our user features change and app installs grow.

We are heavily invested in React Native, Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, and Swift. We don’t have titles that erect boundaries between front-end development and back-end development, so there are plenty of opportunities to learn across the entire stack. You’ll encounter a fair mix of building new features from start to finish, refining existing features, improving performance, and ensuring the security of our customers’ data.

During the hiring process, you’ll have a chance to interact with several members of our team. We strongly encourage you to bring any questions you have to anybody you interact with. You’re interviewing us as much as we’re interviewing you.
