Android Engineer

As an engineer at TenthBit, you’ll have the opportunity to work with a talented engineering and design team, who care about the quality and craft of their work. With over 1 million messages being sent between couples every day, and 160 million messages sent in total, we have many interesting problems to solve. Here’s just a few of the engineering problems we’ve tackled:

• Built a custom messaging infrastructure that combines websockets with a REST-like API to deliver messages between couples at top speed, including paranoid reconnect logic to keep them connected at all times. We don't use XMPP, instead evolving a speed centered in-house protocol that you will be able to contribute to.
• Built an extremely optimized ListView that handles lots of media items while creating a smooth and consistent user experience on over 1000 devices.
• Making sure that our app works across devices which greatly vary in memory, screen size and resolution.

If these are the types of problems you'd like to take on, drop us a line!

• Working with large Core Data data-sets to handle 100,000 messages on a single device, while keeping app launch times low. If you've never worked with core data at this scale, the multi-threading details to keep the main UI thread unblocked and the app responsive is a new level of fun!
• Resorted to extreme table view optimizations for extra-smooth scrolling, from predictive image decoders to programatic pre-rendered alpha masks. All to avoid the slow downs from blending in Core Graphics.
