About the Role
We're hiring a Lead Android Developer to take complete execution ownership of Zobaze POS, one of the most widely-used mobile-first POS apps for retail and food businesses globally. You'll work directly with the founder on direction, but everything from architecture to release is your call.
Here, you won't be another cog in the machine. You'll work side by side with our founder, owning critical modules of a large scale app and making production impacting decisions from day one. If you thrive on trust, responsibility, and rapid career growth, let's chat.
