Optoro http://optoro.com @ Washington DC

Senior Mobile Developer [ONSITE]

Optoro is solving a problem nobody else is: how to handle returns from retailers. It’s amazing that nobody else is solving this problem with technology, or at scale, but we are. It turns out there’s a huge need; major retailers like Home Depot, Staples, Radioshack, Bed Bath and Beyond, and many others are really excited about our solutions that combine technology, data science, and warehouse logistics into a seamless solution that solves their problems and makes them more money.

We’re looking for Senior Mobile Developers to help us build native apps for warehouse management as well as consumer experiences for our e-commerce websites. Both Android and iOS. Totally greenfield for the e-commerce apps, and mostly so for the warehouse tools.

Remote is cool after awhile but we’re focused on building a strong team here in DC first, so expect to be here for a bit to start at least (6-12 mos).

Lots of great benefits and an amazing mission! More info and a submission form at http://www.optoro.com/careers

Android, iOS, Java, Objective C, Swift, Mobile

I don't think I can provide public information on the number of applicants or new hires.

In terms of relocation, I think it's very difficult to decide whether it's worthwhile if you don't yet know what's in store for you at the destination. I encourage you to apply for the position via jobs@ghs.com and see where it takes you.
