iOS Engineer

Portland, OR or San Francisco, CA

Do you want create a whole new space in mobile apps – and do it on top of an engine that is already #1? New Relic created, and now owns, SaaS delivery of web app monitoring. Last year we moved up and down the stack, adding browser-based real user monitoring and low-level server monitoring. Now it’s time for us to join the mobile world, so we’re looking for top-notch iOS developers.

If you are right for New Relic, you’ve shown you can ship successful iOS applications, and you’re itching to be part of something larger. You want to work where you get to make the decisions and there are the resources in place to execute on them. You want to be in a start-up that is going places . . . and you’re tired of working every waking hour to try to make it happen for someone else

We’ve got everything you want . . . and none of what you don’t. We’re successful and still fast-growing, with a hot product, a great team, and the start-up culture to match. We challenge and push each other to be the best we can be. And we make very certain there is space left to have a life, enjoy family, and give back to our communities.

To be fawned over seriously, you will have:

· Shipped successful iOS apps (iPhone or iPad) — even better, an iOS application with a server backend

· A deep interest in making web applications faster and better

· An engineer’s interest in the bits and bytes of everything from network protocols to memory management.

A Little About Us

We are passionate, possibly even crazy, about application performance management (APM). Our mission is to make web applications run better, to make the internet more productive, and to make life easier for developers and devops. We are turning the APM marketplace upside down by providing SaaS products that deliver high-value functionality previously only available through enterprise software. We are well above 14,000 customers. And with your help we’ll get to 10x that number.

New Relic is a Top 100 OnDemand Company, Best of SaaS (THINKStrategies), Top 100 Coolest Cloud Computing (CRN); 10 Cloud Management Companies to Watch (NetworkWorld); the list of accolades goes on. More important, we provide challenging work, opportunities to learn, high quality teammates, a great product, a company on the move, and . . . the freedom to do your work the way only you can do it.

We offer competitive compensation, pre-IPO stock options, and big-company benefits (medical, dental, vision, life), all while maintaining the energy, agility and fun of a start-up.

Our offices are in the tech-rich urban centers of Portland and San Francisco, with easy commute access and a plethora of good eats. We provide competitive compensation (including pre-IPO stock options) and big-company benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401(k), etc), while maintaining the energy, agility and fun of a start-up.

New Relic is most decidedly an equal opportunity employer. We seek applicants of diverse background and hire without regard to race, color, gender, religion, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, disability, age, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by law.
