Associate Mobile Engineer

Here’s what we’re about. Cantina is a strategic design and development agency. We accelerate organization's ability to innovate, grow, and deliver better digital products and services. We live and breathe mobile development, and we bring connected devices and IoT to life. We are doing really cool work on connected dog collars, smart speakers, AR/VR and medical devices. Much of that work focuses on companion apps that go with hardware, so we are looking for mobile developers who want to write code that goes beyond phones and tablets.

What are you about? You love learning new programming languages and paradigms. You’re eager to experiment with emerging technologies like AR, VR and artificial intelligence. You thrive on variety and seek out new technical challenges often. You like having fun while solving difficult problems alongside smart coworkers. You hack on video games and apps with your friends in your free time. You should be a passionate developer with a broad range of programming skills who brings a positive attitude to small project teams. You should have recent experience with the latest best of breed web-based technologies, especially in the areas of mobile development (Swift 3/4, React Native) and cutting-edge web standards (HTML5, CSS3, ES6).

The role: Our consultants create quality bespoke software in small teams, while following best practices. As an Associate Engineer, you’ll work closely with senior engineers, project managers, designers and our clients to define and implement digital experiences for web, mobile, and connected products.
