Job description

Since our founding in 2014, we have focused on delivering top-tier intelligence through user-friendly platforms. Our team of over 850 experts from 69 countries works tirelessly to transform intricate data into actionable strategies, ensuring our clients stay ahead in a dynamic market landscape. Join us to leverage cutting-edge innovation for impactful results and experience unparalleled support on your journey to success. As a Senior Mobile Engineer in the Mobile Experience crew (Application Platform tribe), you will deliver high-performance, critical features for the MarineTraffic and Kpler mobile apps - B2C products serving millions of users - using Flutter, Dart and Mapbox. You will also help design and evolve our mobile Backend-for-Frontend (Node.js, TypeScript, GraphQL, PostgreSQL/PostGIS): a production-critical service designed to scale and sustain the full load of the mobile applications. You will join a squad at the forefront of AI-assisted engineering, where 100% of deployed code is authored by AI under your orchestration - a modern environment for engineers who want to redefine software delivery through advanced AI tooling. The squad is close-knit and multidisciplinary: 2 Senior Engineers, 1 Mid-level Engineer, 1 EM, 1 PM, 1 Designer.

Key Responsbilities

  • Develop complex, production-ready features for the MarineTraffic and Kpler apps, upholding Clean Architecture standards and translating platform conventions (Apple HIG, Material) into polished, native-feeling, accessible experiences.
  • Design and evolve the mobile BFF (Node.js, TypeScript, GraphQL, PostgreSQL/PostGIS) as a primary, scalable component serving all mobile needs.
  • Act as a quality guardian: code reviews, automated test suites (unit, integration, contract), observability, and continuously improved CI/CD and engineering practices.
  • Contribute to product and UX decisions alongside the PM and Designer - owning outcomes, not just code.
  • Maintain and optimise the AI/LLM tooling stack (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) so agents write code autonomously to the team’s standards.
  • Mentor peers, contribute to the Front-end Chapter, and support business teams’ autonomy over their functional scopes as part of the crew’s platformisation strategy.

Requirements

Essential:

  • At least 5 years working experience.
  • Strong experience building and shipping consumer (B2C) mobile applications at scale, serving over a million users.
  • Solid hands-on experience shipping complex Flutter & Dart applications in production.
  • Solid experience with Node.js/TypeScript and GraphQL API design for services operating at scale.
  • Excellent knowledge of mobile architecture, performance, testing and observability, with a strong Clean Code and Clean Architecture culture.
  • Strong understanding of Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines and the ability to translate them into polished, accessible user experiences.
  • Product judgement: experience contributing to product and UX decisions with PMs and designers, rather than simply implementing specifications.
  • Professional-level English (written and spoken). Desirable:
  • Experience in a platform engineering or inner-source context; GraphQL federation.
  • Geospatial experience (Mapbox, PostGIS) or exposure to Kafka, Airflow, GeoServer.
