- Work with product managers and designers to translate requirements into robust technical solutions and seamless user experiences.
- Evaluate and implement modern mobile tools, frameworks, and development patterns to continuously improve development efficiency and product quality.
Requirements

- Proven track record of leading or mentoring mobile engineering teams and owning architecture for large-scale mobile applications.
- Strong understanding of mobile CI/CD pipelines, native build processes, and modern front-end tooling.
- Experience integrating native modules and working with iOS (Swift/Objective-C) or Android (Kotlin/Java) for low-level functionality.
- Hands-on experience with RESTful APIs, WebSockets, and backend integration in distributed systems.
- Familiarity with backend development (Node.js or similar) and ability to contribute to API or service-level improvements when required.
- Strong system design, decision-making, and problem-solving skills with a focus on scalable and maintainable architecture.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical stakeholders in a distributed environment.
Benefits
- Competitive compensation package aligned with senior engineering leadership roles.
- Fully remote work with global collaboration across distributed teams.
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge crypto, DeFi, and blockchain-based mobile applications.
- High-impact role with ownership over mobile architecture and engineering direction.
