We are a fast-growing digital health startup revolutionizing cardiovascular care through wearable technology and advanced machine learning. Our platform integrates real-time biosensor data with clinical-grade algorithms to give healthcare providers actionable insights for heart failure management and vascular assessment.

We are hiring a Mobile Wearable App Developer to build next-generation smartwatch applications for both Apple Watch and Wear OS devices. This role is essential to expanding our product's reach and usability, directly impacting how clinicians and patients interact with our technology. You’ll lead the design and implementation of wearable interfaces, contribute to app architecture, and collaborate across teams to build intuitive, secure, and responsive wearable apps.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop native smartwatch applications using Swift/SwiftUI (Apple Watch) and Kotlin/Jetpack Compose (Wear OS)
  • Build robust UI components to support proposed UX designs, including alerts, paginations, and breadcrumbs
  • Integrate with BLE, HealthKit, Google Fit, and other health data frameworks
  • Perform unit testing for app builds and resolve issues raised by QA
  • Ensure consistent UX and performance across platforms (iOS and Android wearables)
  • Collaborate closely with backend, mobile, and product teams for seamless data flow and user experience
  • Work in agile sprints to iterate based on internal testing, user feedback, and clinical validation

What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days):

  • Build and ship MVP versions of the smartwatch apps for both watchOS and Wear OS
  • Achieve full integration with backend cardio-monitoring systems using BLE and health APIs
  • Implement robust error handling, smooth UX transitions, and battery-optimized logic
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to prioritize features based on clinical impact

Requirements:

  • 4–8 years of experience in mobile application development
  • Minimum 2 years building applications for wearable platforms (Apple Watch or Wear OS)
  • Proficiency in Swift/SwiftUI and Kotlin/Jetpack Compose
  • Experience working with health-related APIs, BLE connections, or real-time syncing logic
  • Strong understanding of mobile UI/UX standards, responsive design, and performance optimization
  • Ability to work independently and iterate quickly in a startup environment
  • English fluency (written and spoken), with strong communication and collaboration skills

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Background in healthcare, medtech, or fitness-related applications
  • Experience deploying and debugging wearable apps in both TestFlight and Google Play environments
  • Familiarity with REST APIs, secure data transmission, and HIPAA compliance principles

Role Details:

  • Location: Offshore (must have overlap with US timezone)
  • Employment: Full-time, remote
  • Reporting to: Enterprise Architect
  • Interview Process: Technical interview + Management interview
  • Compensation: TBD
