IT Applications Engineer V, Mobile - iOS and Android

Job description

**Job Overview:**
We are seeking a technical leader to design, build, and support native mobile applications on both iOS and Android platforms. You will use languages such as Swift, Objective‑C, Kotlin, and Java to deliver polished mobile experiences. Your work will involve implementing modern design patterns like MVVM, building automated UI test suites (e.g., XCUITest and Espresso), managing mobile build and signing workflows, integrating third‑party SDKs (analytics, maps, Firebase, location services), connecting to APIs with robust error handling, caching and retry logic, and pulling content from headless CMS tools (e.g., Adobe Experience Manager). You’ll collaborate closely with design, product, QA, and DevOps teams while staying current with platform changes and mobile architecture best practices.

**Core Responsibilities:**
- Lead mobile application development projects and ensure adherence to procedures and policies.
- Develop detailed work plans to meet business priorities and deadlines, identify resources, delegate responsibilities, and coordinate across teams.
- Determine and execute appropriate methodologies and processes, monitor progress and results, identify improvement opportunities, and raise issues or risks as needed.
- Act as a subject matter expert in mobile architecture, optimizing applications and offering guidance and technical leadership for mobile technologies.

**Minimum Qualifications:**
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, CIS, or a related field (or equivalent work experience).
- At least six (6) years of software development or related work experience.
- Minimum five (5) years of experience in the software development life cycle (SDLC).
- Minimum two (2) years in a technical leadership role (with or without direct reports).
- Minimum five (5) years’ experience developing and/or implementing mobile applications.

**Required Technical Skills:**
- At least four (4) years’ experience programming in Objective‑C or Swift for iOS.
- At least two (2) years’ experience developing automated UI tests using XCUITest (iOS) and/or Espresso (Android).
- At least three (3) years’ experience managing signing/build variants: provisioning profiles, entitlements, distribution certificates, Xcode schemes/configurations, Android build‑types/flavors.
- At least three (3) years’ experience integrating third‑party libraries and SDKs.
- At least two (2) years’ experience working with a CMS such as Adobe Experience Manager or similar headless CMS.
- At least three (3) years’ experience integrating APIs/services, including authentication, error states, and performance optimizations (caching, retry logic).

**Preferred Skills:**
- Native mobile development expertise for both iOS and Android, with familiarity with native tools and platforms.
- Experience in build automation and tooling (e.g., Fastlane).
- Strong collaboration skills across UX, product, and engineering teams.
- Native iOS and Android mobile development using Swift/Objective‑C and Kotlin/Java.
- Automated UI testing frameworks (XCUITest, Espresso).
- Mobile build/signing workflows (provisioning profiles, certificates, flavors, schemes).
- SDK/third‑party integration (analytics, maps, Firebase).
- API integration, error handling, caching/retry logic, and CMS (e.g., Adobe Experience Manager).

**Why this role/location is attractive:**
- Enjoy remote/hybrid flexibility, with roughly one day per week in the office (depending on location), while still being part of an engaged team.
- Relocating to Atlanta or the Denver metropolitan area (Greenwood Village, CO) offers vibrant city life: entertainment, diverse restaurants, and thriving tech communities. Both regions also offer access to outdoor activities; Colorado boasts mountains, hiking, skiing, and nature, while Georgia provides lakes, parks, and warm‑weather options.
- Competitive total compensation (base salary + bonus) and full benefits.
- Opportunity to lead mobile strategy and architecture in a modern agile environment and have a strong impact on the end‑user experience of customer applications.

**Compensation:**
- Base salary plus an annual bonus of up to 14%.
- Salary will be discussed directly with a Bryant Staffing Solutions Recruiter.
- Local relocation assistance is available.
- Visa sponsorship (H‑1B, TN, F1 or OPT) is not available.
