• Take ownership of the entire data flow process from concept to implementation, collaborating closely with analysts and engineers to ensure seamless integration.
• Deliver and publish SDKs to production which will be used by thousands of merchants to interact with tens of millions of users each day.

What you'll need:

• A love for unraveling mysteries and digging deep into complex environments.
• 4+ years of experience and proven expertise in mobile internals, with a strong background in iOS or Android (iOS experience is a plus).
• Experience building modern mobile apps / SDKs, OS Services, APIs, and development cycles.
• Awareness and familiarity with mobile developer concerns when building apps (security, performance, privacy, compatibility, etc.) at scale.
• Up-to-date knowledge of new OS beta releases and upcoming changes/features.
• Ability to identify risks and roadblocks that could impact our code/SDK/legal in the future.
• Backend experience is required; experience building systems at scale, especially with Node.js, is an advantage.
