Frequently asked questions

Should we post one mobile role or separate iOS and Android roles?

One role if you use a cross-platform framework or need a single owner for both stores. Separate roles once each platform has enough work and revenue to justify dedicated depth.

What does a mobile developer cost in the US?

Base salaries typically run $100,000 to $175,000, and contract rates on vetted marketplaces fall around $38 to $135 per hour, varying with platform depth and seniority.

Which cross-platform framework should our job description name?

The one you have already chosen, or the choice you want the hire to help make. If undecided, say so honestly; senior mobile engineers value being part of that decision.

How do we evaluate mobile candidates quickly?

Install their apps. Ten minutes with a candidate's shipped work, checking polish, performance, and reviews, beats an hour of whiteboard discussion.
