Job summary

UnitedHealth Group is seeking a Senior Mobile Architect to own the technical direction of the Expo / React Native member application, serving 1M+ members daily across iOS, Android, and web. The role shapes architectural standards and guides a distributed engineering team, with hands-on code, reviews, and collaboration.

The position supports remote work from anywhere in the U.S., with some in-office requirement for certain locations.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• 5+ years building and shipping production React Native applications.
• 5+ years as senior technical authority on a mobile application at scale.
• 3+ years architecture experience in the mobile space.

Responsibilities

• Own architectural decisions across state management, navigation, API integration, caching and degraded-network behavior, cross-platform rendering, and module boundaries.
• Evaluate and document trade-offs for significant technical changes; establish patterns the broader team follows.
• Define and maintain the technical standards and quality bar for a platform operating at 1M+ user scale.
• Review pull requests and provide substantive architectural feedback, not surface-level approval.
• Serve as the escalation point for complex technical questions from onshore and offshore engineers.
• Mentor mid-level and junior developers; grow the team's capacity to make sound decisions independently.
• Lead diagnosis and resolution of complex production issues, including performance regressions and crash clusters.
• Own release readiness for the mobile application: upgrade strategy, dependency currency, native build and release pipelines, app-store submission, and rollback posture.
• Provide senior technical coverage during U.S. Central-time afternoon hours, when offshore team members are offline.
• Lead the mobile architecture for major integration initiatives, including current strategic program work.
• Own the micro-frontend boundaries: evolve the shared feature module and integrate third-party federated widgets across module lines.
• Partner with backend, security, and product teams on API contracts, authentication flows, and data-handling requirements.
• Translate the behavior and constraints of the existing codebase for stakeholders.
