Apportable (YC W11) is hiring Objective-C experts

1 pointsby collinjacksonalmost 12 years ago
The Apportable SDK cross-compiles iOS apps to Android, without changing the original Objective-C or C++ code. Games powered by Apportable have risen to the top of the charts and delighted millions of users through the Google Play Store, Amazon Appstore, and the Humble Android Bundle. The platform is built on open source projects like GNUstep, CFLite, and Cocotron as well as our own implementations of UIKit and other libraries.<p>Things you might work on:<p>In your first week, you’ll refactor the build system, implement a missing Objective-C framework, wrap third-party Java and Objective-C libraries, crush bugs, whip up a demo, and help a developer bring a title to market. By week two, you'll see your work in the hands of millions of Android users.<p>You might be a fit if:<p>- You have experience shipping complex Objective-C apps or cross-compiling using the Android NDK.<p>- You know a lot about OpenGL ES, Objective-C, and C++.<p>- You enjoy a sink-or-swim environment with very little process. If you require lots of direction and red tape, you will be unhappy here.<p>Perks:<p>- Work flexible hours with incredibly smart and motivated engineers.<p>- 15 employees and massive amounts of ownership and visibility.<p>- A successful product that developers are actually paying money for and appreciating, with lots of upside potential.<p>- Based in the SOMA neighborhood of San Francisco at 5th and Harrison, within walking distance of Caltrain and BART.<p>- Free Exec, health, dental, meals and we don’t track vacation days.<p>- We play games - lots and lots of games.<p>---------------------------------------------------<p>To apply, email jobs+hn@apportable.com with:<p>- Link to relevant profiles (GitHub, Twitter, Quora, Stack Overflow, HN, etc.).<p>- Something you’ve built in Objective-C or OpenGL ES.
