LaunchKit is a collection of web-based tools aiming to empower mobile developers to launch better apps. Over 10,000 people from indie developers to huge multinational companies use our best-in-class tools for pre-launch prep and post-launch performance monitoring. Weve made it dead simple for developers to create websites, build marketing assets, monitor reviews, and track sales. As Lead Product Engineer, youll be responsible for building and maintaining this growing set of web tools. Were looking for a versatile, full-stack engineer who is able to get their hands dirty with everything from frontend web development to building and maintaining a growing REST API for our web and native mobile clients. Youll work directly with our small team in our downtown San Francisco office. We use a custom JavaScript frontend environment called Skit skitjs.com that we built in-house, sitting in front of a Python backend using Django, Celery, Redis, PostgreSQL on EC2RDSS3 and even some Go, Google App Engine, etc.. PRODUCT LaunchKit is a set of tools designed for mobile product managers and developers to help with the process of building, releasing and managing apps. We've launched two apps so far, which are being used by thousands of companies with hundreds of millions of end users. These tools are being created by the team who have spent the past 2 years working on @Cluster, a series of mobile apps helping people share privately with the people they care most about. LaunchKit products are things that the team wishes existed when building their mobile apps. WHY US Over the past 2 years, our team has built and released 7 apps into the App Store, and 5 apps into Google Play. During this time, weve tried to share the lessons weve learned and tools weve built to make launching new apps easier for other mobile makers. We quickly found that developers are desperately in need of more, better tools for this kind of thing every time we released something, the feedback we got told us to keep going. So we decided to create LaunchKit. LaunchKit is a set of tools for mobile makers to help them launch and manage their apps more efficiently. So far, weve released two standalone products, Review Monitor and Screenshot Builder. Thousands of companies have already signed up, but were just getting started The long-term plan involves more custom client-side integrations, backed by amazing web-based consoles all to help people launch better products, faster.
