[Hiring] Senior Mobile Engineer @Forwood Safety

Role Description

We’re looking for a Senior Mobile Engineer to take end‑to‑end ownership of Forwood’s mobile application and help shape its future. This is a hands‑on, startup‑style role where you will build, ship, and operate a production mobile app used in high‑risk, real‑world environments.

• Lead development using React Native with Expo, delivering reliable, high‑quality experiences across iOS and Android (phones and tablets).
• Collaborate closely with backend and web engineers, while remaining the primary owner of the mobile stack.
• Make pragmatic technical decisions and lift quality as the product scales.
• Comfort with Agentic AI‑driven development (beyond autocomplete).
• Use copilots and agents (e.g. CursorAI, Claude Code) to plan, generate, refactor, test, and document work.
• Thrive in lean, fast‑moving environments with broad ownership within their domain.
• Desire for work to have a direct, meaningful impact.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a strong focus on mobile development (React Native + Expo).
• Hands-on experience with Agentic AI-driven development (e.g., CursorAI, Claude Code).
• Proven track record delivering and maintaining production apps on the App Store and/or Google Play.
• Proficiency with mobile CI/CD pipelines (bitbucket, Fastlane, GitHub Actions).
• Experience integrating native modules, device APIs, and third-party SDKs.
• Strong understanding of AWS services (ECS, Lambda, RDS, S3, IAM).
• Expertise in writing and auto-generating robust test suites (Jest, React Native Testing Library, Detox, Playwright).
• Excellent communication skills, with demonstrated ability to mentor and influence across engineering teams.
• Passion for adopting and evangelizing emerging technologies to drive measurable improvements in team delivery.

Requirements

• Practice Agentic AI-driven development: use copilots/agents for planning, code generation, refactoring, test creation, and documentation.
• Create and share team playbooks (workflows, guardrails, and reusable patterns) to apply agentic AI consistently and responsibly.
• Lead design and implementation of high-quality mobile UIs in React Native with Expo.
• Build, secure, and maintain mobile APIs and SDK integrations, collaborating with backend engineers on AWS-based services.
• Drive App Store and Google Play releases end-to-end, including CI/CD automation.
• Use agents to accelerate creation and maintenance of unit, integration, and end-to-end tests across iOS and Android.
• Enforce static analysis, type safety, and performance benchmarks.
• Implement observability and reliability practices (crash monitoring, logging/metrics).
• Mentor mid-level engineers on mobile engineering best practices.
• Facilitate cross-team workshops, lunch and learns, and documentation.
• Partner with full stack engineers to deliver cohesive user experiences across web and mobile platforms.
• Stay abreast of AI tooling advancements; evaluate and integrate new models, extensions, and workflows.
• Identify process bottlenecks and architect AI-powered solutions to streamline development cycles.
