About this roll* (Responsibilities)

You’ll be working at the intersection of mobile development, CI/CD systems, and backend engineering, ensuring we can scale to thousands of individual builds across our growing customer base.
At the same time, this is a full stack role with plenty of hands-on opportunities across the product: from React and React Native on the frontend, to Kotlin and GraphQL on the backend.

Here’s what you’ll do:
- Architect, build, and maintain systems that power the automated build and release pipelines for iOS and Android apps.
- Own the infrastructure that supports thousands of customer-branded builds, ensuring reliability, scalability, and speed.
- Improve developer productivity by enhancing build systems, tooling, and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc.).
- Work hands-on in the product stack, contributing to React, React Native, Kotlin, and GraphQL layers as part of feature delivery.
- Partner with Mobile, Backend, and Product teams to ensure smooth, high-quality releases across multiple app versions.
- Monitor and improve build performance, quality metrics, and release success rates.
- Collaborate with engineers across Toast to deliver scalable solutions that support rapid growth and increased customer demand.
Do you have the right ingredients*? (Requirements)
- 4+ years of software engineering experience, ideally with a mix of backend systems and full stack product development.
- Strong experience with build tools and CI/CD systems (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Fastlane, Gradle, Xcode build tools).
- Familiarity with mobile app development (iOS and/or Android) and app store distribution processes.
- Experience with frontend frameworks (React, React Native) and backend layers (Kotlin, GraphQL, Node.js).
- Experience building and maintaining large-scale, multi-tenant systems.
- Comfortable working with AWS, Docker, and other cloud-based infrastructure.
- Strong collaboration skills and comfort working across mobile, backend, and frontend teams.
- A passion for automation, developer productivity, and release quality, balanced with curiosity to contribute directly to user-facing product features.
