Our client is building an accountability protocol — a new consumer primitive that introduces financial stakes into personal goal achievement.

The company recently achieved a significant regulatory milestone, enabling launch in 46 states from day one. After months of close collaboration with regulatory counsel, they’ve established infrastructure and positioning that creates real defensibility and meaningful barriers to entry.

Backed by top-tier investors and led by founders with backgrounds at Apple, Google, and leading venture firms, the team is small (4 people), technical, and execution-focused.

This is a true founding engineer role. You will build the native iOS product from the ground up and help define the technical and product direction of the company.

You are not joining to maintain features. You are joining to create the category.
