• At least 10 years in mobile/cross-platform development
• At least 8 years Flutter and/or native iOS/Android in production
• Able to independently execute feature developments, perform code reviews, and collaborate with teammates of varying expertise and experience
• React Native familiarity is expected; deeper RN experience is a plus

Required Technical Skills

Mobile

• Solid Flutter and/or native iOS and Android development — screens, navigation, forms, lists.
  • Flutter: Dart, widgets, state management, platform channels
  • Native iOS: Swift (Objective-C a plus), UIKit and/or SwiftUI
  • Native Android: Kotlin (Java a plus), Android SDK / Jetpack basics
• Advice on when performance or device APIs require native modules over cross-platform code
• Strong in iOS and Android permissions, app lifecycle, store release basics and delivering consistent quality
• Push notifications, secure storage, maps and geolocation including geofencing, camera and file capture with progress feedback and retried upload
• Navigation, state management, networking layer, shared UI components, and environment and API client configuration
• Offline sync patterns – local persistence, form drafts, queued submissions and conflict handling
• User-Interfaces (UI) that display integration-backed content (documents, data summaries, spatial context, near-real-time field data), with considered loading, empty and error states

APIs & Security

• Consuming versioned backend JSON APIs with JWT or similar authentication methods – token refresh, custom headers, encrypted payloads
• Login and session flows, including multi-factor and OTP verification
• Comfortable reading API docs and handling common errors, including retry and failure feedback
• Understanding of device info in API requests (app version, OS, device id)

Adjacent skills

• Able to discuss and agree API contracts with Laravel/PHP backend developers
• Open to working with Python services (FastAPI, Django, or Flask) as data sources
• Angular or React web knowledge to align mobile app flows with the web app
• Exposure to React Native for migration (e.g., TypeScript) and shared mobile work

Engineering

• Git and code review. Mobile CI and build pipelines.
• Debugging with device logs and network tools across devices and OS version
• Reusable automated tests for critical logic
• Basic TestFlight / Play Console (or similar) release experience

Good to Have

• Stronger React Native delivery experience (beyond familiarity)
• Background location / geofencing in production
• Biometrics or extra mobile security practices
• Azure DevOps or cloud CI for mobile builds
• Experience with form-heavy enterprise apps
• Experience with telemetry-style UX or simple 3D/spatial viewers on mobile

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver new features for mobile applications to meet project, client and unit requirements
• Maintain and extend existing applications across supported devices and OS versions
• Integrate applications with the unit's backend services and external data sources
• Implement secure login and session handling, on-device credential storage and multi-factor verification / authentication
• Deliver location-based features including site presence checks and permission handling
• Support app information capture, transfer and synchronisation over unreliable connections
• Build screens presenting integration-backed content — documents, data summaries, spatial and near-real-time sensor data
• Maintain offline app feature capabilities and local caching for use without connectivity
• Own application structure and patterns for environments, retries and sync/error handling
• Work with backend and web teams on interface contracts, versioning and device metadata
• Manage builds and store releases so live changes are tested, auditable and reversible
• Maintain code quality, documentation, peer review and code tests
• Resolve faults across applications, device features, uploads and connected services
