Apply Test-Driven Development (TDD) practices, with emphasis on unit testing, UI testing, and testable architecture design

Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Android build tools, and equivalent iOS tooling

Integrate and manage third-party libraries and APIs, and develop reusable internal SDKs and frameworks

Optimize app performance through memory profiling, multithreading management, and performance tuning using tools such as Instruments

Ensure multi-device compatibility across phones and tablets in portrait and landscape orientations on both platforms

Coordinate and collaborate with offshore and globally distributed development teams

Partner with product managers and designers to define architecture and technical specifications

Create and maintain comprehensive technical documentation for mobile applications and development processes

Mentor and provide guidance to junior developers, supporting their professional growth

Participate in Digital Product Management and stakeholder meetings, contributing to project planning and delivery

Proficiency in Kotlin for Android development and Swift for iOS development

Deep understanding of mobile architecture, design patterns (CLEAN, SOLID, MVVM, MVP), and platform best practices

Expertise in the Android SDK, Android Studio, iOS SDK, and Xcode

Strong background in TDD, unit testing, and UI testing

Experience managing multithreading, memory management, and error handling across mobile platforms

Hands-on experience with Git and version control tools (e.g., SourceTree)

Familiarity with CI/CD tooling (Jenkins or equivalent)

Experience integrating third-party libraries and working with REST APIs and JSON/XML data

Excellent communication, collaboration, and teamwork skills

Experience working with globally distributed teams

Willingness to apply and grow your skillset to meet evolving client needs
