Your New Role

As part of the Development team focused on our Login SDK platform, you’ll play a key role in architecting and delivering robust authentication modules used by multiple apps across millions of devices. You will be exposed to every aspect of the software development cycle and encouraged to express your opinions and challenge assumptions. Guidance from Mobile Tech Leads will ensure code quality and best practices. This is a hands-on role where you’ll build reusable mobile SDKs integrated into customer-facing apps with millions of downloads as well as colleague-facing tools. You’ll interface with RESTful APIs while ensuring your code meets strict requirements for security, performance, reliability, observability—and seamless integration by other teams.

Participate in code reviews and architecture discussions with a focus on modularity, scalability, and testability. Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams—including product managers, security engineers, QA specialists, Android/mobile developers—to define requirements and deliver end-to-end solutions. Take full ownership: drive features from design through release; proactively monitor crash and performance dashboards; address issues rapidly; champion improvements based on feedback from integrators. Write comprehensive unit, integration, and UI tests; maintain high standards for code quality and reliability. Mentor junior developers on best practices for reusable framework and SDK design.

Strong understanding of API design principles, including versioning, backward compatibility, and SDK lifecycle management. Deep knowledge of Swift and iOS development best practices; familiarity with Objective-C is an asset. Experience with modern iOS architecture patterns such as MVVM, Clean Architecture, and modular application design. Experience implementing analytics, logging, and monitoring solutions using tools such as Firebase Crashlytics, Firebase Performance Monitoring, OpenTelemetry, or similar platforms. Familiarity with monitoring production issues through observability solutions such as Datadog, Splunk, Grafana, or equivalent. Demonstrated ability to profile and troubleshoot memory leaks, threading/concurrency issues, and network bottlenecks using Xcode Instruments and related tooling. Experience writing clear technical documentation, integration guides, and sample applications to support SDK adoption. Strong understanding of secure coding practices, particularly around authentication flows, token management, secure storage, encryption, and Keychain services.
