Mozilla Corporation is the non-profit-backed technology company that has shaped the internet for the better over the last 25 years. We make pioneering brands like Firefox, the privacy-minded web browser, and Pocket, a service for keeping up with the best content online. Now, with more than 225 million people around the world using our products each month, we’re shaping the next 25 years of technology and helping to reclaim an internet built for people, not companies. Our work focuses on diverse areas including AI, social media, security and more. And we’re doing this while never losing our focus on our core mission – to make the internet better for people.
The Mozilla Corporation is wholly owned by the non-profit 501(c) Mozilla Foundation. This means we aren’t beholden to any shareholders — only to our mission. Along with thousands of volunteer contributors and collaborators all over the world, Mozillians design, build and distribute open-source software that enables people to enjoy the internet on their terms.
About this team and role:
At Pocket, we love what we do, but more importantly we are building something that millions of people love, too. Pocket has become crucial to how over one million people discover and consume content worthy of their time and attention.
We’re looking for a passionate and skilled engineer to bring to life key aspects of our Android and iOS apps. Today, we have one Android engineer, one iOS engineer, one Front End Web engineer, and one Backend engineer. We’re looking to grow our mobile engineering force with someone who is interested in straddling the line between Android and iOS, and carrying learnings from one environment to the other. We are excited to provide the opportunity for an existing Android or iOS engineer to learn how the other half lives, and do not expect candidates to be experts in both systems out of the gate.
If you are passionate about using technology to improve people's lives, we believe Pocket has challenges that will excite you. We're a small team within a well-established organization (Pocket was acquired by Mozilla in 2017), and that means lots of opportunity to build, learn and grow in a variety of areas, collaborate closely with fellow team members from many different fields, and to own things from start to finish that have tremendous impact on large numbers of people.
