  • Collaborate with iOS and Android engineers, designers, QAs, backend engineers and product

owners to deliver exceptional user experiences used by millions worldwide.

  • Modernize and refactor legacy components, moving toward a modular, testable, and Swift-first codebase (SwiftUI, async/await, Combine).
  • Drive architecture discussions and define patterns (MVVM, Clean Architecture, modularization) to
