hatch I.T. is partnering with VanishID to find a Mid-Level Mobile Engineer. Please see details below:
About the Company
VanishID is growing, and they want someone to join their mission to keep people and enterprises safe. They are adding a Mobile Engineer to their team who will own their mobile app end-to-end. This person will partner closely with their product, design, and security teams to bring our Command Center experience to mobile and build the things only a phone can do, from push alerts on exposure events to protection against smishing and intercepted verification codes. This role will report to the VP of Engineering.
This is a unique opportunity to join them at this early stage where you will feel the impact of your work every day and have an open runway for growth. They are a remote-first company and are open to candidates throughout the United States. This role is not eligible for visa sponsorship.
Responsibilities:
- Build and ship our mobile app: Get real builds into clients' hands through TestFlight, at parity with our web dashboard's individual view for protection status, family coverage, and reports.
- Set the technical foundation: Work with our web and security leads to shape the app's architecture and determine how much of the existing codebase and design system carries over.
- Build for the moments that matter: Wire up push notifications end to end, so an exposure event reaches a client as an alert they can act on in one tap.
- Absorb anti-smishing into the app: Fold our standalone smishing and verification-code protection into the app.
- Own releases and reliability: Stand up the build, release, and crash-reporting pipeline.
- Partner across the team: Work directly with product, design, and security to turn goals into shipped features.
Qualifications:
- 4+ years building mobile apps: You've shipped and maintained apps that real people used, through the App Store and TestFlight.
- Native iOS (Swift) or Android (Kotlin) depth: You've built and shipped native mobile apps and know the platform well beyond a cross-platform wrapper.
- Production mobile experience: You've handled push notifications, background tasks, and the parts of mobile that break in the field, not just the happy path.
- Ownership mentality: You're comfortable owning a codebase from architecture to releases to testing, and you write down the decisions behind it.
- Security-minded engineering: You handle sensitive data carefully and treat security as part of the build, not a review at the end.
Nice to have:
- React Native / Expo experience.
- Experience with device security signals, MDM, or integrations like password managers and identity verification tools
- Comfortable making product and UX/UI decisions
- Familiarity with build and distribution infrastructure for internal iOS applications
- Background sharing a web and mobile codebase and knowing where that gets hard
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience

While working with local startups, our Founder & CEO, Tim Winkler, realized that traditional staffing models didn’t align with the growth needs of startups. Working with those firms felt transactional and the costs were way outside a startup's budget. There was a need for a solution that was relational, community driven, and flexibly priced. With this in mind, hatch I.T. was formed, along with customized models that transform the way early-stage and high-growth startups scale. Fast forward 8 years and 15 employees later, hatch has developed a platform that provides a roadmap to guide startups from MVP through all stages of growth. After proving this model with dozens of startups across DC, Maryland, & Virginia, we realized it was needed in all emerging startup markets.
