What you'll do

Own end-to-end architecture and delivery of core native app surfaces in Swift and Kotlin, operating at depth across the team's codebases and establishing the constrained architecture and compile-time boundaries that enforce strict quality standards.

Lead the agentic code translation workflow, implementing high-quality automated systems for the team's recurring migration work before asking for headcount, and setting what gets automated versus what stays human across the translation pipeline.

Own developer experience for the native codebase, accelerating every engineer who onboards by improving build speeds, local development workflows, and CI/CD reliability, and by defining the architectural patterns and documentation that make native mobile development at Coinbase a world-class experience.

Shape the dual-app agentic synchronization strategy during the transition, prioritizing the highest-impact outcomes and designing the daily agent automations and human review processes that keep native and React Native codebases in sync.

Become a leader throughout the entire mobile community at Coinbase, defining best practices, mentoring L3-L5 mobile engineers across all teams, and fostering connection and support between all mobile engineers.
