In this role, you'll bring deep mobile expertise—either in Android or KMP—and help shape the evolution of our multiplatform codebase and delivery pipeline. You'll collaborate across design, product, and backend teams to ship features end-to-end, from architecture to post-launch observability and iteration.

• Extend and improve our mobile CI/CD pipeline and build infrastructure, with a focus on reliability, automation, and developer experience

• Familiarity with modern Android build systems and tooling such as Gradle, CI/CD automation, performance tuning, and static analysis tools
• Experience collaborating with backend teams to design robust, scalable mobile APIs
• Passion for financial empowerment and an interest in Bitcoin, decentralized technologies, or digital identity
