Job Title: Director, Mobile Engineering (Full-Stack)
Location: New York, NY | Atlanta, GA | Remote
Employment Type: Full-time, Salaried
Job Summary:As
Director, Mobile Engineering at Impiricus, you'll own the technical direction for both our mobile (iOS/Android) and backend engineering teams, and set the architecture, standards, and processes that the whole engineering group builds on. You'll lead a talented, cross-functional team of engineers, shape how our mobile apps and backend services are designed and built together, and partner closely with Product, Design, and AI to deliver innovative, high-quality solutions.
This is an opportunity to build more than an app - you'll build the organization, engineering culture, and technical foundation that will scale with our business, across the full stack. If you're passionate about developing high-performing teams, driving engineering excellence, and delivering products that make a meaningful impact on healthcare, we'd love to meet you.
Responsibilities:- Lead and grow a high-performing engineering organization spanning mobile (iOS/Android) and backend, responsible for delivering world-class, reliable products end-to-end.
- Define and execute engineering strategy across mobile and backend, aligning technical initiatives with product and business objectives.
- Own the group's overall technical architecture - including mobile-backend integration, API design, and service architecture - ensuring consistency and scalability across the stack.
- Establish and drive adoption of engineering standards and processes (development, testing, CI/CD, observability, release management, code review).
- Partner closely with Product, Design, and AI to deliver scalable, customer-centric experiences across mobile and backend.
- Drive engineering excellence through architecture reviews, code quality, operational best practices, and continuous improvement across teams.
- Build, mentor, and develop engineering managers and senior engineers across mobile and backend, fostering a culture of ownership, collaboration, and accountability.
- Design secure, scalable APIs, backend services, and high-performance mobile solutions in an integrated way, rather than as two disconnected efforts.
- Ensure all applications and services meet the highest standards for security, privacy, reliability, accessibility, and performance.
- Lead technical planning and execution for strategic initiatives, balancing innovation, scalability, and delivery velocity across the group.
- Oversee organizational growth, hiring, and adoption of emerging technologies - including AI-powered capabilities - across mobile and backend.
Experience:- 10+ years of professional software engineering experience, spanning both mobile and backend/server-side development.
- 5+ years leading engineering teams, with experience managing engineering managers and scaling organizations across multiple technical disciplines (mobile and backend).
- Deep expertise in modern mobile development (Swift/SwiftUI and/or Kotlin/Jetpack Compose) and solid backend fundamentals - distributed systems, RESTful/GraphQL API design, databases, and service architecture.
- Demonstrated experience defining architecture and technical standards at an organizational level - not just within a single discipline - and driving their adoption across teams.
- Strong understanding of authentication, networking, offline synchronization, mobile security, and application performance, as well as backend scalability, reliability, and security practices.
- Experience establishing engineering best practices (architecture, code review, testing, CI/CD, release management, observability) that apply across an entire engineering group.
- Proven ability to influence cross-functional strategy and partner with Product, Design, and executive leadership.
- Experience recruiting, mentoring, and developing senior engineers and engineering managers across disciplines.
- Excellent communication and organizational leadership skills, balancing technical depth and business impact.
