Own technical direction: Set and evolve the technical standards, architecture, and best practices for your team’s mobile features, ensuring long-term scalability and maintainability of the app.
Lead the hardest problems: Own the design and delivery of the team’s most complex, highest-scope projects — the ones that require deep technical judgment and cross-system thinking.
Drive team efficiency: Identify and implement improvements to developer tooling, build pipelines, and development workflows that enable the entire team to iterate faster and ship with more confidence.
Establish engineering practices: Define and enforce standards for component architecture, testing, accessibility, performance, and mobile deployment across the team.
Mentor all engineers: Provide mentorship to engineers at every level on the team, shaping technical growth, raising the quality bar, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement.
Collaborate at the organizational level: Work with Engineering Managers, Product leadership, and other Staff/Principal engineers to align technical strategy with business objectives.
Own cross-stack integration: Ensure the mobile app integrates effectively with backend services (Go and Rails), driving consistency in API contracts and data flows across the platform.
Participate in on-call rotation: Own systemic reliability improvements and lead incident response for the most critical production issues.
