About Zipline

Do you want to change the world? Zipline is on a mission to transform the way goods move. Our aim is to solve the world’s most urgent and complex access challenges by building, manufacturing and operating the first instant delivery and logistics system that serves all humans equally, wherever they are. From powering Rwanda’s national blood delivery network and Ghana’s COVID-19 vaccine distribution, to providing on-demand home delivery for Walmart, to enabling healthcare providers to bring care directly to U.S. homes, we are transforming the way things move for businesses, governments and consumers. The technology is complex but the idea is simple: a teleportation service that delivers what you need, when you need it. Through our technology that includes robotics and autonomy, we are decarbonizing delivery, decreasing road congestion, and reducing fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while providing equitable access to billions of people and building a more resilient global supply chain.

Join Zipline and help us to make good on our promise to build an equitable and more resilient global supply chain for billions of people.

About You and The Role

The Consumer Experience team at Zipline is responsible for building the core digital experiences that connect our customers to the world’s first autonomous drone delivery network. From placing an order to watching it arrive in real time, our team is shaping how people interact with Zipline — and redefining what convenience looks like for food, retail, and healthcare delivery.

We’re looking for a seasoned, product-minded software engineer to help scale Zipline’s consumer-facing mobile and web applications. You’ll play a key role in shaping the technical direction of our mobile stack, with a strong focus on quality, performance, and delightful user experience. You’ll collaborate closely with engineering and cross-functional partners to imagine, build, and iterate on end-to-end features that directly impact Zipline customers every day.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of complex problems at the intersection of mobile development, systems design, and product innovation — and help define what instant logistics looks like at global scale

What You'll Do

  • Take technical ownership of critical features across Zipline’s consumer mobile and web apps, from design through deployment and iteration
  • Shape the architecture and evolution of our React Native mobile codebase to support scalability, maintainability, and performance
    Drive initiatives to improve app quality — including integration testing, performance monitoring, and build pipeline automation
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to build user-facing features that are fast, elegant, and grounded in a strong understanding of customer needs
  • Identify opportunities to use native modules or platform APIs to extend our React Native app’s capabilities — and lead their development when needed
  • Influence our long-term mobile technical roadmap and contribute to team-wide engineering best practices
  • Support and mentor teammates through thoughtful code reviews, architectural guidance, and shared technical decision-making

What You'll Bring

  • 6+ years experience developing high-quality mobile applications using React Native and TypeScript
  • Solid understanding of mobile application architecture, performance optimization, and testing best practices
  • Experience shipping user-facing features in collaboration with product, design, and engineering teams
  • Demonstrated ability to provide technical leadership, influence roadmap decisions, and mentor other engineers
  • A product mindset and passion for crafting intuitive, delightful customer experiences
  • Excellent communication skills and a track record of owning problems end-to-end
