Hybrid - New York

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.

  • Take ownership of significant mobile features from design through deployment
  • Ensure mobile experiences meet the quality bar our advisors and clients expect
  • Contribute to the development of our cutting-edge, agentic-based, software manufacturing pipeline.
  • Future opportunity: Rotate onto the Forward Deployed team to work directly with advisors and solve time-sensitive mobile challenges

The Ideal Match 

  • 6+ years of mobile development experience, with at least 3 years in React Native
  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript/JavaScript and modern mobile development practices
  • Experience with both iOS and Android platforms
  • Deep understanding of mobile architecture, state management, and performance optimization
  • Experience building complex, data-intensive mobile applications
  • Product-focused mindset - excited about shipping features that solve real user problems
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Proven ability to work autonomously and drive projects from idea to completion
  • Track record of delivering high-quality mobile experiences on schedule
  • Experience mentoring other engineers
  • Collaborative mindset and ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams

  • Knowledge of mobile security best practices and compliance requirements
  • Previous consulting or customer-facing technical roles
  • Experience with financial data visualization in mobile contexts

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
