Job Level

About the role

  • Own major feature areas end-to-end across iOS (Swift, SwiftUI) and Android (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose) - from technical design through implementation, testing, rollout, and iteration.
  • Help lead the development of new mobile features and product improvements, driving execution and aligning partners on scope, tradeoffs, and timelines.
  • Build and enhance real-time audio capture and processing across platforms, leveraging AVFoundation (iOS) and Android audio frameworks to ensure high-quality recordings and accurate transcription.
  • Optimize app performance, reliability, battery usage, and latency to deliver smooth, real-time AI-powered transcription and summarization.
  • Design and implement AI-powered mobile interactions, including chat-based experiences that let users explore, query, and take action on meeting reports and insights.
  • Partner closely with product, design, and ML teams to prototype and ship novel mobile UX patterns for conversational AI, making complex information feel intuitive, fast, and useful.
  • Evolve mobile architecture patterns, state management, and shared engineering standards to support rapid iteration and maintainability at scale.
  • Establish and uphold best practices for code quality, testing, release hygiene, observability, and performance profiling across both platforms.
  • Implement strong security, privacy, data handling, and offline-first support to ensure user trust and reliable cross-device experiences.
  • Mentor and support other engineers through design reviews, pairing, and code review, helping grow technical skills and product instincts across the team.
  • Contribute to hiring by defining role expectations, participating in interviews, and helping raise the overall bar for the mobile team.
