Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. YouVersion is flexing its engineering team into full-stack territory, and MW is hiring two engineers to join the Family of Apps team as part of that shift. The role involves designing, building, and maintaining software across the YouVersion platform while owning technical design for projects.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain software across the YouVersion Family of Apps, flexing across Android, iOS, and API work as projects require
- Own technical design for projects and clearly communicate tradeoffs
- Review, test, and approve code to ensure quality and consistency
- Partner with engineers to align on technical approach and development plans
- Support and mentor junior and mid-level engineers
- Help maintain consistency in technical direction across the team
- Troubleshoot and resolve complex issues across systems
- Contribute to improving team practices, tools, and processes
Skills
- Strong software engineering experience with a track record of delivering reliable, scalable solutions
- Comfort flexing across platforms — Android (Flutter, Kotlin, Java), iOS (Swift), and API (Python) — rather than staying deep in a single stack
- Comfort owning technical decisions and working through tradeoffs independently
- Ability to support and guide other engineers without formal authority
- Clear communication, especially when explaining complex concepts
- Self-motivated, with the ability to take initiative and follow through
- 3+ years of related work experience, with a track record of contributing to production systems
- Prior experience specifically as a mobile engineer, with an interest in growing into API/backend work (or vice versa)
- Availability aligned to Central time zone (not a hard requirement)
- Alignment with Life.Church's mission and a desire to build things that help people grow in their faith
