Be the architect behind experiences customers touch every day. In this role, you’ll design, build, and scale mobile (iOS/Android), web, and backend platforms that power core customer and operational workflows. You’ll own public and internal APIs, guide third‑party integrations, and set the engineering guardrails that elevate quality, reliability, and velocity—shipping confidently through modern CI/CD pipelines.

Mobile Technical Leadership
- Lead React Native development with hands‑on expertise in offline sync, push notifications, deep linking, secure device storage, and full App Store / Play Store release pipelines.
- Establish mobile patterns that balance performance, security, and long‑term maintainability.
API & Integration Excellence
- Design and consume REST and GraphQL APIs, defining versioning strategies, error contracts, and pagination standards.
