Senior Mobile Engineer - AI Integration - Remote Eligible

Senior Mobile AI Engineer (iOS/Android Focus)

Are you excited about building intelligent, high-performance mobile apps that bring real-world AI experiences to users in the field?
We’re looking for a Senior Mobile AI Engineer to help shape the next generation of mobile applications — combining native development, cross-platform architecture, and AI integration.

About the Role

In this role, you’ll design and develop AI-powered mobile experiences that provide real-time assistance, automated data capture, and predictive insights.
You’ll work across iOS, Android, and Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) environments, embedding advanced AI features into user-friendly applications that perform flawlessly — even in challenging offline conditions.
This position blends deep mobile engineering expertise with hands-on experience integrating large language models (LLMs) and on-device AI.

What You’ll Do

• Integrate AI capabilities and LLMs (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini) into native mobile apps for real-time reasoning and assistance.

• Implement on-device AI using Core ML (iOS) and TensorFlow Lite (Android) to ensure reliable offline performance.

• Lead the migration to Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP), building shared codebases that maintain platform-specific UI quality in SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose.

• Design intelligent mobile workflows such as voice-to-text, image recognition, and predictive automation.

• Optimize app performance for field conditions — ensuring low latency, efficient caching, and minimal resource usage.

• Build intuitive, responsive UIs that deliver smooth, high-quality interactions across devices.

• Collaborate closely with AI, backend, and product engineers to deliver measurable outcomes for end users.

• Participate in agile rituals, share best practices, and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.

What You Bring

• 4–6 years of experience in mobile development (iOS and/or Android).

• Proven track record of shipping high-quality apps with outstanding user experience.

• Solid knowledge of Kotlin, Swift, and platform SDKs (Android Studio, Xcode).

• Experience or strong interest in Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) for shared codebase development.

• Hands-on experience integrating AI/ML features or APIs into mobile applications.

• Understanding of Core ML, TensorFlow Lite, and mobile AI orchestration frameworks (LangChain, custom pipelines).

• Strong foundation in MVVM, MVI, or Clean Architecture, dependency injection (Hilt/Dagger, Koin), and reactive programming (Combine, Kotlin Flow, RxSwift).

• Experience building offline-first architectures with intelligent synchronization and caching.

• Strong problem-solving mindset and the ability to design for complex, real-world use cases.

Nice to Have

• Experience with computer vision (OCR, object detection) or AR (ARKit, ARCore).

• Background in field-service, construction, or InsurTech applications.

• Familiarity with geospatial data, mapping, or 360° camera integrations.

• Contributions to open-source mobile or AI projects.

• Understanding of accessibility and inclusive mobile design standards.

Why Join

• Build AI-native mobile apps that are used daily by professionals in the field.

• Lead and shape a cutting-edge Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) migration.

• Work with the latest mobile and AI technologies — from Core ML and TensorFlow Lite to LangChain and modern LLM APIs.

• Collaborate in cross-functional squads focused on measurable user outcomes.

• Be part of an environment that values innovation, autonomy, and continuous learning.
