Our mission is to move humanity off of fossil fuel heating. 20% of US global warming emissions come from homes (that's more than cars!). The largest driver of home emissions is burning fossil fuels for heat. To stop climate change, over 80M US homes need to transition from combustion to efficient, electric heat pumps over the coming decades.
We believe for this to happen the world needs fantastic products that are easy and desirable to purchase. Today's heat pumps lack great design, make limited use of software, and are difficult and stressful to adopt. We are building a next generation, beautifully designed, AI optimized home heating and cooling system that is 10x better than what is on the market today.
RoleWe are building a team of driven, kind, and exceptionally talented people unified around the vision of creating incredible products for the home to accelerate the energy transition. Our first product is a beautiful all-electric heating and cooling system. Our team has a very diverse skill set ranging from hardware and software engineering, to design, to product management, consumer marketing, and customer experience.
Quilt is looking for a UX-minded, mission-driven software engineer to lead Android app development for a design forward modern heating and cooling system. We have a modern native app built with Kotlin-Multiplatform, allowing business logic to be shared with iOS, and Jetpack Compose for our UI. Our ideal candidate loves collaborating with designers, tweaking animations to perfection while building a clean and maintainable codebase.
This role can be done hybrid (minimum 3 days a week in-office in Redwood City) or full-time in person. We have a strong collaborative office culture, but also recognize that long commutes are tough. We can be flexible as needed.
