Job Description

Imagine a platform that over one million people rely on every day. Not to scroll, shop, or kill time, but for real-time health and safety support when it matters most.

This is the reality at this company: Engineers here aren’t just shipping features, they’re building systems that can make a difference in someone’s critical moment. The bar is high. The culture is rigorous. System design matters. Code reviews are real. Trade-offs are debated openly. And velocity? Fast, but never at the expense of quality.

Mobile has reached a decision point.
The apps have scaled quickly - two fully native codebases, Swift and Kotlin, powering millions of members. But duplication, complexity, and context switching are slowing velocity. The business knows it’s time to consolidate and future-proof mobile for the next 3-5 years. They need someone to lead that decision.

Your Opportunity
You’ll own the cross-platform conversation: Kotlin Multiplatform? React Native? Double down native? Your credibility and vision will define what mobile looks like at scale for the next several years.

The Engineering Room

  • 40 engineers, recently raised the bar with senior hires from top product environments.

  • You’ll work directly with a senior leader overseeing AI strategy - practical, human-in-the-loop AI supporting real people in critical moments.

  • This is a culture where operational context drives engineering decisions. You’ll see the impact of what you build, not just metrics on a dashboard.

Why This Role Matters

  • Influence mobile strategy at scale

  • Shape cross-platform direction

  • Build in a real-time, AWS-heavy, AI-adjacent environment

  • Be measured on the quality of your thinking, not just your output

What You’ll Need

  • Deep mobile expertise (Android and/or iOS)

  • Proven system design and architectural influence

  • Exposure to cross-platform strategy (KMP / React Native)

  • Product-minded, accountable, and opinionated in the right way
