What you'll do

• Design, build, and ship new features in our iOS app
• Collaborate with product and design to translate training, readiness, and skill-video features into polished mobile experiences
• Integrate with backend APIs and third-party services (e.g., wearables and readiness data sources) to power in-app functionality
• Write clean, tested, maintainable code and participate in code review
• Monitor app performance, crash rates, and user-facing bugs, and drive fixes
• Contribute to release processes, including app store submissions and updates

What we're looking for

• Professional experience building and shipping native mobile apps (Swift/iOS and/or Kotlin/Java for Android)
• Solid understanding of mobile architecture patterns, state management, and performance optimization
• Experience integrating REST APIs and handling asynchronous data flows
• Familiarity with app store submission and release processes
• Strong debugging skills and comfort working across the full mobile development lifecycle
• Ability to collaborate closely with product, design, and backend engineers

Nice to have

• Experience with cross-platform frameworks (e.g., React Native, Flutter)
• Experience integrating wearable device data (e.g., HRV, sleep, or fitness tracking APIs)
• Background building consumer fitness, sports, or health-tracking apps
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for mobile release automation
