How is my family right now? How do we stay coordinated and connected? Where has my family been? We create the foundations and interactions that support real‑time awareness, history, communication, insights, and everyday family coordination.

Our 2026 focus is to deliver a fast, cohesive, and emotionally resonant free user experience that reflects the company’s long‑term Magic of Location vision.

You will help define how these surfaces fit together, both technically and experientially. Your work will ensure that individual features contribute to a unified, intuitive, and emotionally expressive user experience.
