What You'll Own

✅ Lead from the Front

Drive the development, performance, and delivery of a core mobile application used by enterprise customers. Stay deeply involved in the code and lead through execution.

✅ Architect for Scale

✅ Set the Mobile Standard

Establish and champion best practices for application architecture, navigation, performance optimization, testing, and maintainability across multiple product teams.

✅ Mentor & Elevate

Coach engineers across internal teams and external development partners, raising the bar for code quality, engineering discipline, and delivery excellence.

✅ Drive AI-Powered Development

Leverage Generative AI and Agentic AI tools to streamline workflows, improve engineering productivity, and accelerate product delivery.

✅ Optimize Delivery Pipelines

Partner with QA and DevOps teams to strengthen CI/CD practices, automate testing, and create frictionless App Store and Google Play release processes.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• 8+ years of professional mobile development experience
• Deep expertise building production applications with React Native and TypeScript
• Strong native development experience in Swift and/or Kotlin , with the ability to develop custom modules and optimize platform-specific functionality
• Proven track record of delivering high-quality mobile products in fast-paced environments
• Strong architectural mindset with experience creating scalable, maintainable mobile platforms
• Ability to balance speed, innovation, and technical debt without over-engineering solutions
• Experience mentoring developers and guiding distributed or hybrid engineering teams
