• Manage consent flows, secure data storage, and encryption.
• Growth, Retention & Observability: Collaborate with product and analytics teams to design engagement features personalization, notifications, and retention loops.
• Implement observability tools for performance and stability tracking.
• Establish incident response playbooks and dashboards for proactive issue resolution.
• Collaboration & Cross‑Functional Alignment: Partner with backend and data teams to define optimized APIs, caching, and data flow for efficient app performance.
• Work closely with AI/ML teams on personalized insights, predictive health features, and smart engagement models.
• Enable continuous collaboration with design, QA, and product for cohesive outcomes.
• Mentorship & Team Building: Build and mentor a high‑performing mobile engineering team.
• Drive code reviews, knowledge‑sharing, and innovation culture.
• Foster technical excellence and accountability across the team.
