Job Description
Job DescriptionAbout Dimagi:
Dimagi is an award-winning social enterprise and a certified B Corp and Benefit Corporation. Our primary product, CommCare, is the most widely-deployed open-source digital platform for enabling Frontline Workers. Since 2002, Governments and organizations across all sectors have built customized mobile, web, and SMS applications on CommCare to deliver services to underserved populations. Dimagi is more than a tech company. We are an impact-first team of compassionate people from all parts of the world and all walks of life, dedicated to using business as a force for good in global health and development.
Global Technology Division:
The Global Technology Division's mission is to lead Dimagi's technical strategy and ensure quality on our platform. Most of our team members operate in a matrix, where they collaborate with other technical team members and benefit from shared knowledge, experience, and comradery, while also being assigned to a business division to help align technical and business goals.
About the Position:
Our Global Technology team helps to develop and improve our platform's architecture design for expressing end-to-end system workflows, both at the functional level and the technical level. Since CommCare is used for applications related to many different types of problems, from agricultural extension education to improving delivery outcomes at birth, the software is written as a portable application engine. That means we don't often build custom code for specific projects.
Dimagi is looking for a Mobile Software Engineer to join our Global Technology team, which is responsible for growing and maintaining Dimagi's Android-based mobile tools CommCare & CommCare Connect as well as supporting our Web Apps platform, both of which share a powerful common Java based engine for running low-code configuration based apps.
The Mobile team at Dimagi is small, so everyone tends to have their hands in several pieces of the stack, while simultaneously finding certain areas to focus on more closely over time. Our developers share a passion for making things work in challenging environments and seeing the impact of our work first-hand.
