- Deliver and publish SDKs to productionwhich
What you'll need:
- A love for unraveling mysteries and digging deep into complex environments.
- 4+ years of experience and proven expertise in iOS internals (Android experience is a plus).

- 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.
