What is Current Mobile
Current enables millions of budget-conscious consumers to earn additional income from their everyday habits. The larger organization is split into cross-functional product teams.
In the past 2 months, we have…
- increased revenue by a significant multiple into a mid-8 figure revenue run-rate.
- improved infrastructure to support a huge increase in growth (nearly 500,000 people earn through our products each day!)
- launched our own proprietary smartphone Mode (modephone.com) - the first ever phone that pays you
- released features such as “Games”, where users get paid for playing games, and "Charge" where users get paid for charging their phone!
- released an internal tool to provide instant access to revenue data.
Current has 15 engineers out of 32 people in total, distributed around the world (including Chicago, Mexico, California, Argentina, and Croatia). The Charge Screen team is based in Chicago, Los Angeles, and Ukraine.
The Charge Screen Team
The Charge Screen team consists of 2 Android Engineers, 1 Backend Engineer, and 1 Product Manager. We're focused on allowing users to earn extra income for charging and unlocking their phone.
We operate in 2-week sprints, release Android updates weekly, and control specific functionality through a powerful split testing and feature flagging system. Our Product Managers are committed to measuring and quantifying the impact of every change before we move on.
The team varies between working collaboratively and independently. We want everyone to feel encouraged to take a feature from an idea through development and post-release all on their own. But, some problems are best solved together, in which case pair programming, white-boarding sessions, and discussions are frequent.
Technology
We rely heavily on the following technologies:
- TestRail for our Test Case and Test Documentation main application.
- EndTest for creation of automated tests.
- BrowserStack as device farm used for automated tests
- JIRA for bug management and for general maintenance of software development process.
- Instabug for bug reporting
- We communicate with each other primarily via Slack.
