Full job description

Company Description Farther is a rapidly growing RIA that combines expert advisors with cutting-edge technology - delivering a comprehensive, tailored wealth management experience.

Farther’s founders are leaders and innovators from the private wealth industry who possess a unique blend of traditional wealth management, fintech, and technology production expertise. We’re backed by top-tier venture capital firms, fintech investors, and industry leaders.

Joining Farther means joining a collaborative team of entrepreneurs who are passionate about helping their clients and our teammates achieve more. If you’re the type who breaks through walls to get things done the right way, we want to build the future of wealth management with you.

The Role As a Senior Mobile Engineer at Farther, you'll build exceptional mobile experiences that serve both our advisors and clients.

You'll join our mobile engineering team working on core product features and roadmap delivery. We're hiring as part of an exciting initiative: we're creating a Forward Deployed Engineering team where our top engineers rotate to work directly with advisors on urgent challenges. As senior engineers rotate onto that team, you'll help maintain the momentum on critical mobile features. Once you've ramped up and gained context on our platform (typically 3-6 months), you may have the opportunity to rotate onto the Forward Deployed team yourself.
