Mobile Software Engineer

• Design and build native or cross-platform mobile applications for Android and iOS that pair with Picarro instruments and integrate with the cloud/data platform.
• Own offline-first and sync architecture for field use, where connectivity is not guaranteed and data integrity matters.
• Handle device-level integrations such as Bluetooth/BLE, sensor pairing, and background data collection where relevant.
• Use AI-assisted development tooling to prototype and iterate quickly on UI and integration work.
• Own mobile app reliability and performance in production, including crash rates, sync failures, battery/data usage, and root-cause fixes.
• Partner with backend/platform engineers to define APIs and contracts that work well under field constraints.
• Mentor other engineers on mobile architecture and platform-specific best practices., We are the world’s leader in timely, trusted, and actionable data using enhanced optical spectroscopy. Our solutions are used in a wide variety of applications, including natural gas leak detection, ethylene oxide emissions monitoring, semiconductor fabrication, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, atmospheric science, air quality, greenhouse gas measurements, food safety, hydrology, ecology, and more. Our software and hardware are designed and manufactured in Santa Clara, California and are used in over 90 countries worldwide based on over 65 patents related to cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) technology and are unparalleled in their precision, ease of use, and reliability.

• 5+ years of mobile engineering experience, with production apps shipped on Android and/or iOS using native Swift/Kotlin or a cross-platform framework such as React Native or Flutter, with a clear rationale for the choice.
• Real experience with offline-first architecture and data sync patterns.
• Experience integrating with hardware/sensors via Bluetooth or similar protocols is a strong plus.
• Comfortable owning a mobile app’s full lifecycle, including architecture, release process, monitoring, and production issues.
• Experience using AI coding assistants in a professional workflow.
• Background building software as a core product at a software product company, R&D lab, or technology-first organization, rather than internal IT, retail/e-commerce technology operations, or IT services/consulting shops that primarily implement or customize other companies’ software.

Nice to Have

• A public GitHub or similar portfolio showcasing real project work is a strong plus.
• Experience building apps for field service, industrial, scientific, or instrumentation use cases.
• Familiarity with the same cloud/data platform stack used by the backend team, enabling smoother API collaboration.
• Cross-platform architecture experience, including shared business logic across Android and iOS.
