Director, Mobile Engineering

Job Summary

As Director, Mobile Engineering at Impiricus, you'll own the technical direction for both our mobile (iOS/Android) and backend engineering teams, and set the architecture, standards, and processes that the whole engineering group builds on. You'll lead a talented, cross-functional team of engineers, shape how our mobile apps and backend services are designed and built together, and partner closely with Product, Design, and AI to deliver innovative, high-quality solutions.

This is an opportunity to build more than an app — you'll build the organization, engineering culture, and technical foundation that will scale with our business, across the full stack.

Responsibilities

• Lead and grow a high-performing engineering organization spanning mobile (iOS/Android) and backend, responsible for delivering world-class, reliable products end-to-end.
• Define and execute engineering strategy across mobile and backend, aligning technical initiatives with product and business objectives.
• Own the group's overall technical architecture — including mobile-backend integration, API design, and service architecture — ensuring consistency and scalability across the stack.
• Establish and drive adoption of engineering standards and processes (development, testing, CI/CD, observability, release management, code review).
• Partner closely with Product, Design, and AI to deliver scalable, customer-centric experiences across mobile and backend.
• Drive engineering excellence through architecture reviews, code quality, operational best practices, and continuous improvement across teams.
• Build, mentor, and develop engineering managers and senior engineers across mobile and backend, fostering a culture of ownership, collaboration, and accountability.
• Design secure, scalable APIs, backend services, and high-performance mobile solutions in an integrated way, rather than as two disconnected efforts.
• Ensure all applications and services meet the highest standards for security, privacy, reliability, accessibility, and performance.
• Lead technical planning and execution for strategic initiatives, balancing innovation, scalability, and delivery velocity across the group.
• Oversee organizational growth, hiring, and adoption of emerging technologies — including AI-powered capabilities — across mobile and backend.

Experience

• 10+ years of professional software engineering
