Hovers Inspections product is the primary way our insurance customers document measure and act on the condition of a property. Today it runs almost entirely on React Native and were looking to change that. We are looking for a Senior iOS Engineer to lead the transition of this product to native code starting with iOS. Youll be the go-to technical authority for how inspections get built natively going forward working shoulder-to-shoulder with our SDK and Mobile Core teams to bring the same polish our platform SDKs are known for to the Inspections experience. This is a role for someone who wants real ownership over a loosely-defined migration not just a set of tickets. Youll decide how we get there and youll help shape what there looks like.

Youll take a product thats still being defined and bring clarity to it identifying bugs and opportunities as you go deep on how inspections actually work today. From there youll build the roadmap for moving Inspections to native balancing forward progress with a live product that thousands of contractors and insurance professionals rely on every day. Youll break big ambiguous initiatives down into scoped pieces of work some of which youll own yourself some youll hand off to other teammates. Along the way youll partner closely with Product and Design to solve problems together. Being successful in this role means youll be the connective tissue between the Inspections team the SDK team and Mobile Core.
