KPCC (Southern California Public Radio) | Sr. Mobile Developer | Los Angeles, telecommute a possibility | Full-Time

KPCC is the most listened-to public radio station in the U.S., and is trying to redefine how public service journalism can serve a diverse metropolis. KPCC's product team cares about using great tech and sharing our work; most of our projects are public on GitHub (https://github.com/SCPR/), and we open source our best work. If you're a mobile developer who loves podcasts and public radio, this is a unique opportunity to have an impact on the future of the industry.

We’re looking for a passionate mobile developer to oversee KPCC's mobile apps. You enjoy writing tests and clean, maintainable code as much as you like shipping cool new features that demonstrate great UX and attention to detail. You have experience shipping apps on either iOS or Android, and an interest in both platforms.

We're based in Pasadena, but are open to some telecommuting. If you're interested, check out our full posting here: http://kp.cc/1l3SkvE.

Unfortunately Apple's ToS explicitly forbid charitable donations inside of apps, which is exactly what an IAP donation would be. Public radio's hands are tied unless Apple changes it's policies.
