iOS Engineer

ClassDojo's goal is to give every child on Earth an education they love.

We started by building a powerful network for communication. ClassDojo’s flagship app is the #1 communication app connecting K-12 teachers, children, and families globally. Teachers use it to share what’s happening throughout the day through photos, videos, and messages that make parents feel like they’re there. It’s actively used in over 95% of US schools, reaching over 45 million children in 180 countries, with a team of just around 200 people [1]. We are now beginning to use this network to give kids the best learning experiences in the world, far beyond those a standard school can provide.

We hire for talent density. Our team comprises the most talented, entrepreneurial, and innovative teammates from around the world, with experience in education and large scale consumer internet companies, including Instagram, Netflix, Dropbox, Stripe, Uber, Y Combinator, and more. We’re building a company where the most talented people want to work. We believe you’ll do the best work of your life here—and you’ll pioneer the future of education, too.

What you’ll do:

• You'll shape the direction of mobile products at ClassDojo.
• You'll work across all parts of the stack to develop new features and infrastructure for ClassDojo's iOS app.
• You'll create a solid architectural, technical and cultural foundation for future iOS engineers.
• You'll be expected and encouraged to think beyond writing code, to help define ClassDojo's direction - this is your company to build.
• You'll work and grow as part of a cross-functional product development team. We value holistic ownership over specialization, so you'll be expected to contribute beyond just iOS development.

You might be a good fit if you:

• Have experience with iOS.
• Have experience with some of the technologies we use: Our app is built entirely in Swift utilizing both SwiftUI and UIKit while leveraging async/await, Combine, CoreData and other Apple frameworks. Our infrastructure utilizes Swift Package Manager, fastlane, Github Actions, and XCode Cloud. Successful applicants will be experienced in more than one of these technical areas!
• Enjoy building highly responsive and fault tolerant apps
• Write robust application code for user-facing iOS applications on top of RESTful APIs
• Create and maintain testing infrastructure for a variety of automated test suites
• > 7 years of professional software experience
• Americas timezones
