Technical Execution & Craft

• Native Excellence: Drive the engineering of robust mobile applications for both iOS and Android, ensuring high-fidelity performance and native-level fluidity.
• Service Layer Integration: Lead the integration of the mobile front-end with BFF (Backend-for-Frontend) and API service layers, optimizing data flow and app responsiveness.
• Engineering Standards: Establish and drive coding standards, lead rigorous code reviews, and implement common design patterns across multiple workstreams.
• Rapid Prototyping: Transition seamlessly from Proof of Concept (POC) to production-ready code, using experimental insights to build stable, scalable systems.

Leadership & Problem Solving

• Technical Roadmapping: Quickly identify architectural roadblocks and gaps in capability, providing alternate technical approaches to keep the project on track.
• Collaboration: Partner with Strategy, Creative, and Client leads to translate complex business requirements into elegant, executable technical features.
• Mentorship: Act as a lead mentor for the engineering team, fostering a culture of continuous learning and adherence to mobile best practices.
• Innovation: Stay at the forefront of the React Native ecosystem, advocating for the adoption of modern tools and frameworks that enhance productivity and app quality.

• Cross-Platform Expertise: Extensive experience deploying and supporting native applications on both the iOS App Store and Google Play Store.
• Modern Tooling: Strong experience with bare React Native workflows including Metro bundler and Babel configuration, alongside state management with Redux Toolkit and RTK Query.
• Advanced Integration: Proven experience with BFF architectures and integrating complex API layers; bonus points for experience with Airship (push notifications) and Commerce/Payment integrations (Stripe, Apple Pay, Google Pay).
• Styling & UI: Experience building themeable, high-fidelity UIs using modern systems like Nativewind or Tamagui.
• DevOps & CI/CD: Proficiency with mobile CI/CD pipelines using Fastlane, GitHub Actions, TestFlight, and Firebase App Distribution.
• Testing & Profiling: Skilled in mobile testing frameworks (Jest, Detox) and performance profiling to ensure a jank-free user experience.
• Design Sensitivity: A strong appreciation for UX and UI design, with the ability to advocate for the technical requirements that make a design feel "world-class."
• Communication: The ability to explain complex technical trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders with clarity and empathy.
