About Us

We started Geneva to bring people together. We're building the word's most flexible group messaging platform — a low-pressure space where everyone can have genuine conversations with communities they care about. Geneva is a world where power is distributed, where privacy is respected, and where advertising is nowhere to be found.

The Geneva Engineering team is part of what makes this happen. For our Android app, we use Kotlin, Android Jetpack, unidirectional data flows, dependency injection, reactive programming, unit tests, end to end tests, and the robot pattern.

You don't have to know all of these patterns and libraries, but you'll be using them daily. Technical skills aren't everything at Geneva; we value kind people who can work well on a team.

Our office is in New York City (but you don't have to be). Geneva is committed to building a diverse and inclusive company that celebrates and develops individuals of all backgrounds. We have that commitment instilled into the very foundation of our company. We are an equal opportunity employer and encourage all applicants.
