Principal iOS Software Engineer

The members of our team tackle big problems through small group collaboration. Our technology spans across web, mobile, APIs, big data and machine learning, search, as well as physical point of sale and ticket scanning systems. Specifically for mobile we have 4 apps (Organizer and Attendee apps for both worlds, iOS and Android).

As a people-focused organization, we support a culture of inclusion, mentorship, and continuous learning. Pair programming, weekly demos, tech talks, and hackathons are at the core of how we build our team and product. We engage with the community by hosting events with exciting technical speakers and releasing key building blocks of our stack as open-source software. Our engineering teams own their services and systems end to end from requirements gathering to deployment to maintenance. Team members follow an on-call rotation to ensure any issues are mitigated immediately and root causes are rectified.

THE ROLE

As Principal engineer, you’ll be in a preferred position to support the technical vision of the area (native development, iOS and Android) and keep ensuring Eventbrite’s platform evolves to exceed our customers’ expectations. You’ll be challenged to research, design and implement technical solutions and become a point of reference for the engineering teams.

At the team level you will work closely with your Engineering Manager and different Product Managers. At the company level you’ll be responsible for technical leadership and mentoring.

As we evolve as a company, more services are created and our tech stack will keep changing.
