Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design, development, and delivery of enterprise‑grade iOS and Android applications using native (Swift, Objective‑C, Java) and hybrid (React Native, TypeScript) technologies.
• Architect secure, scalable mobile applications and oversee UI/UX implementation across multiple form factors, localizations, and OS‑specific patterns.
• Guide teams in building high‑performance, multithreaded apps leveraging device capabilities such as camera, Bluetooth, sensors, storage, and secure OS modules (Secure Enclave / TEE / Strongbox).
• Implement and maintain code quality standards, and robust testing practices to ensure high‑quality product delivery.
• Experience with Apple and Google wallets, or custom digital wallets, such as add passes/credentials to a wallet and mobile verifier app for credentials.
• Support publication and lifecycle management of apps in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store
• Lead development and maintenance of the secure mobile applications by applying OS‑level security guidelines, secure coding practices, and ongoing patching and vulnerability fixes.
• Ensure comprehensive documentation of code, processes, system designs, and mobile architecture to support long‑term maintainability.
• Lead development of digital credential wallets and mobile identity solutions using W3C VC data models, DIDs, mDOC, and related decentralized identity technologies.
• Provide technical leadership on credential exchange, cryptographic protocols (OIDC, OAuth2, JWT/JWS,CBOR/COSE, ECDSA P-256,Ed25519, TLS, PKI), and standards compliance (PCTF,ODIF,IETF, NIST, eIDAS).
• Oversee integrations with backend services using REST, SOAP, event‑driven systems, and cloud‑native architectures (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Lead Agile development teams, facilitating sprint planning, backlog refinement, code reviews, and technical design sessions.
• Mentor developers and cultivate a strong engineering culture emphasizing user‑centered design, accessibility, performance, and secure engineering.
• Collaborate with product managers, UX designers, cybersecurity teams, and platform architects to align mobile engineering work with enterprise roadmaps and strategic goals.

This position is listed as "Onsite"; the resource is expected to work between the standard working hours of 8:00-5:00 PM (excluding lunch breaks) every Monday to Friday inclusive at the identified OPS office location.
