About the role

SpruceID builds privacy-preserving, standards-based digital identity and credentialing solutions that give individuals control of their information while enabling governments and enterprises to deliver secure, interoperable services. We partner with public-sector organizations to modernize how identity is issued, verified, and used.

As a Mobile Engineer , you will sit at the intersection of engineering, customer delivery, and digital identity. You will work directly with state governments and other public-sector partners to design, build, and deploy mobile-first identity solutions , often serving as the primary technical representative of SpruceID in the field.

This role combines hands-on Flutter development with consulting, systems design, and customer success. You will ensure SpruceID’s mobile technology is deployed securely, effectively, and with lasting real-world impact.

This job is fully remote within the US.

  • Act as a trusted technical advisor to public-sector partners, guiding them through mobile security, identity standards, and best practices

  • Build and ship privacy-preserving mobile applications that meet public-sector requirements for security, accessibility, and compliance

  • Integrate mobile applications with backend identity services, cryptographic libraries, and platform APIs

  • Contribute to shared Rust or cross-platform libraries that run across backend services, mobile devices, and the browser

  • Support customer deployments, debugging, and operational needs in real-world environments

  • Represent SpruceID directly with partners during pilots, launches, and ongoing engagements

  • Excellent communication skills and experience working directly with customers, ideally in a consulting or delivery-focused role

  • Based in the US and excited to engage directly with state government partners

Bonus Qualifications

  • Familiarity with Rust or interoperating with Rust-based mobile libraries

  • Experience meeting accessibility standards (WCAG, mobile a11y)

About SpruceID

SpruceID lets users control their data across the web. Instead of people signing into platforms, we imagine platforms should sign into people’s data vaults. We implement this pattern into digital wallet ecosystems for governments, enterprises, and blockchains. We believe that architectures that enable individual autonomy in the digital world are necessary for free societies and dynamic economies to thrive.
