SCOPE OF ROLE:
As a Mobile Engineer, you will own the mobile codebase behind the Misan by Bamboo retail app — the primary way our users send money, receive global payments, and manage their virtual cards. You will work closely with the Backend team on API contracts, QA engineer on testing, and with Design on a smooth, trustworthy user experience for a bold, fast-growing fintech product. You will use your understanding of programming tools and languages to analyze existing codebase, formulate more efficient processes, solve problems and create a fantastic experience for our users. You will bring payments industry expertise to the team, define specifications, participate in weekly team syncs, contribute to roadmaps, and ensure safe and reliable mobile apps for our users. Your role is central to ensuring the Misan mobile app releases are of the best quality and support our customers.
What you will be doing:
Build and maintain the Misan Flutter app for iOS and Android from a single codebase, shipping features across remittances, virtual card management, account/KYC flows, etc.
Own app architecture decisions: state management, navigation, offline/error handling, input sanitization, and secure local storage of sensitive data.
Integrate with the backend API for transfers, card issuance, transaction history, notifications, etc; work with Backend Engineers to shape clean, versioned contracts.
Implement secure handling of sensitive financial data on-device (tokens, biometric auth) in line with regulatory-aligned practices.
Optimize app performance, startup time, and stability across the wide range of Android/iOS devices used across our markets.
Own release management: App Store and Play Store submissions, versioning, staged rollouts, and crash monitoring/reporting.
Write automated tests (unit/widget) and work with QA on automated and manual test coverage for release candidates.
Work with Product Managers for project definition, technical specification, task break-down, delivery, monitoring, and maintenance.
Collaborate with Design to implement polished, accessible UI that builds user trust around money movement.
Monitor crash reports and app analytics, triaging and fixing issues quickly post-release.
Utilize AI responsibly and securely to improve the quality and delivery of your work, ensuring any AI-assisted development strictly adheres to Misan's data sovereignty and platform security standards.
Who You Are
3+ years of mobile engineering experience, with solid production experience in Flutter/Dart. Experience with Kotlin and/or Swift is a plus.
You have shipped and maintained a consumer app end-to-end, including through App Store and Play Store review cycles.
Experience with secure mobile development: token/session handling, secure storage, and biometric auth integration.
You are comfortable working against evolving APIs and advocating for the contract your app actually needs.
Fintech, payments, or other high-trust consumer app experience is a strong plus, given the sensitivity of what Misan handles.
You care about performance and reliability; you know a fintech app can't afford to feel janky or unstable.
You write tests and think about edge cases (poor connectivity, failed transactions, retries) as core to your work.
You are comfortable being the sole/lead mobile engineer initially. You are self-directed, but know when to flag decisions that need alignment.
You are a strong communicator who can work directly with Backend, QA, Design, and Product without a lot of hand-holding.
You take full ownership of your work.
You are proficient using git and project management tools: Gitlab, Jira, Notion, FigJam, etc.
You are known for being a creative problem solver with the attitude that there is no problem that cannot be solved, fixed, or mitigated.
You bring a positive energy. You are optimistic about the future and determined to get there.
You appreciate direct communication. You are both an active communicator and an eager listener.
You are never tired of learning.
