  • Experience owning the full lifecycle of features or services (design, implementation, testing, release, and operational support) within a broader product or platform area.
  • Familiarity with AI-driven systems, tools, or workflows and applying AI/ML concepts to real world products, with a focus on safely integrating these capabilities into mobile features.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Proven track record leading technical design for complex iOS initiatives, including architecture decisions that span multiple services, apps, or domains in a large-scale environment.
  • Experience integrating or building AI/ML‑enabled capabilities in mobile applications, such as personalization, recommendations, intelligent assistant flows, or content ranking, with a focus on safety and responsible use.
