Mobile Technology Jobs in Raleigh, NC (NOW HIRING)

Position Description:
At ServiceTrade, you'll build technology that matters - for your career, your team, and the thousands of commercial contractors who rely on our platform every day. We're on a mission to partner with commercial trades to deliver technology that enhances technician productivity, improves customer experiences, and drives scalable growth.
We're looking for a Mobile Architect who's excited to make an impact. In this role, you will be responsible for leading the strategic design, development, and evolution of ServiceTrade's native iOS and Android applications. This role bridges product vision with technical excellence, ensuring our mobile platform scales reliably, performs optimally, and delivers great experiences for field service technicians on the job. You'll co-own the mobile technical roadmap, establish engineering standards across both platforms, and mentor a high-performing team toward scalable, maintainable solutions.
Why ServiceTrade:
You'll belong here from the start.
We bring together kind, curious people with diverse perspectives and trust them with meaningful work. You'll have ownership, clarity, and support to solve real problems, make a visible impact for our customers, and continue growing as your role evolves.
On the Mobile team, you'll have the opportunity to set the technical direction for native platforms that thousands of field technicians rely on every day. You'll have real ownership over architecture, tooling, and how the team works, including shaping what AI-assisted development looks like at ServiceTrade. This isn't a role where you inherit a roadmap - you help build it.
About You:
You've spent years deep in native iOS and Android development, and you love the challenge of getting offline sync and data consistency right. You think in systems, not just screens, and you're genuinely excited about AI tooling - curious enough to explore it, experienced enough to know where it shines. You lead by making others better, and you're just as comfortable explaining a technical trade-off to leadership as you are diving into the code yourself.
Key Responsibilities and Activities:
Strategic & Architecture Leadership
