Welcome, Angie & Johannes!




Angie Ta Johannes Klein

As you may know, we've been trying to hire an engineer to focus on mobile app development since this summer, and I'm happy to announce that we kind of ended up with two! Angie Ta is our new full-time React Native engineer, and she'll be focusing on the new cross-platform mobile app we've been developing. Angie lives in the Bay Area region of California like most of the team, but she's originally from Florida. She loves the water, speaks almost-fluent Cantonese, and can tell the rest of us what anime people actually watch these days.

During the hiring process we also interviewed Johannes, an avid iNat user from Germany. Due to the complexities of hiring internationally (something we learned about during this round of hiring) and the fact that we'd found another good candidate in the US, we decided not work with him as a full-time hire, but we really wanted to work with him in some capacity, and we had some funds allocated for a contractor, so we decided to work with him on contract instead. Johannes will also be focusing on mobile app development, though he'll be splitting time between the new iNaturalist app and Seek. Johannes is an expert in the family Crassulaceae, and in making Most, which he says is "not really cider" but really sounds a lot like cider.

Anyway, please welcome these two new members of the team!

For months I have been saying in my iNat presentations, "and they are currently hiring someone to update our iPhone app to make it as awesome as the Android one!" There's an eager public waiting. So glad to have you on board, Angie and Johannes!
