Role

The Mobile Team at Sprout Social is responsible for building and maintaining awesome tools that allow businesses to manage their social media on the go and to work in concert with our industry-leading web app products.

We’re looking for smart, engaging, supportive, and dynamic people who have a passion for social media and technology to join our Chicago team. If you are the best at what you do and ready to immerse yourself in one of Chicago’s hottest startups, apply now!

Problems we work on:

• Design: Implement pixel perfect designs that exceed use expectations for Android.

Why we want you:

• Your code works.  You know all the use cases and make sure they work how they're supposed to work.
• You ship.  Your apps go out the door when they're supposed to.
• This isn't your first rodeo.  You have apps in the app store.
