Mobile Networks are different. And yet we continue using the same legacy protocol stack (TCP/HTTP/SSL) to connect mobile devices to the cloud. If you want to help change that, come join us.
Packetzoom is rethinking the whole stack from the ground up. You get to hack network and/or security protocols, innards of mobile operating systems and build a global distributed system around brand new protocols.
We're currently looking for
- ANDROID PLATFORM LEVEL ENGINEER
You'd be responsible for our Android platform SDK (so you'd be writing some combination of Java and C++ code). In the process, you'd get to learn all about vagaries of mobile platforms and mobile networks at the global scale. In addition, you'll have your pick of dozens of delicious, hard problems to solve in the realm of distributed systems, unix'y things, iOS stuff (to be compatible on both platforms), security etc.
I'm Founder/CEO/CTO. You will work directly with me. We're well funded but still a very small team (< 10 people) So you get to enjoy an early stage team environment but not so much the high financial risk that goes with such things.
