• Recent experience with Kotlin, Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP), and/or Swift, including building and evolving shared libraries or platform components
• Demonstrated ability to influence technical direction across multiple teams without direct authority, influencing technical direction beyond an individual team through RFCs, architectural reviews, and shared best practices
• Experience building or maintaining shared libraries, SDKs, or internal platforms
• Fluency and comfort designing, maintaining, and improving CI/CD pipelines for mobile applications
• Demonstrated success leading and delivering complex projects involving multiple engineers, external dependencies, and long-term technical trade-offs
• Strong problem-solving skills, sound engineering judgment, and systems-level thinking
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including technical documentation and design reviews with the ability to present the same information to both technical and non-technical audiences

Desired Experience:

• Experience shipping high-traffic consumer applications to production, including ownership of release processes, versioning, and post-release support
• Experience integrating and supporting video playback technologies such as ExoPlayer, AVFoundation, and/or JW Player
• Familiarity with dynamic ad integration and tracking (client-side and server-side ad insertion) in video content
• Experience designing, standardizing, or scaling automated testing strategies across multiple platforms (unit, integration, UI, E2E)
• Experience working within a large, matrixed media organization, effectively navigating cross-team dependencies and stakeholder alignment
