About Density:

Density’s mission is to measure and improve our footprint on the world. 

We help companies understand how their workplaces are used. We do that by observing behavior in the office through our highly accurate and always anonymous sensors. In other words: where are people actually spending their time? We translate that data into actionable, opinionated insights that help companies increase the financial and experiential performance of any workplace. 

Today, we work with companies from Fortune 500s to high growth innovators in technology, financial services and healthcare, occupying more than a billion square feet worldwide. And we’re in it for the long game: what if we knew more, created better spaces, and could build cities that worked and felt better?

That’s where you come in...

  • Optimize applications for maximum performance and scalability, ensuring seamless experiences on devices ranging from mobile phones to large, in-office touchscreens.
  • Deploy applications to the App Store and Google Play Store, managing the submission process and ensuring compliance with platform guidelines.
  • Mentor junior developers, promoting best practices in coding, testing, and deployment.

  • Proficiency in setting up and managing CI/CD pipelines, particularly using GitHub Actions for automated testing and deployment.
  • Familiarity with responsive design principles, ensuring applications deliver consistent experiences across different devices and screen formats.
  • Ability to write scripts and workflows that support test coverage checks and automated test runs within the PR flow.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills, working effectively with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality products.
