With more than 25 years of conversational AI research and development, we serve over 5,000 enterprises across MENA and are pioneering sovereign, agentic AI through our Agentic Studio platform. As the category takes shape, the way Unifonic is perceived - by buyers, analysts, media, and the broader market - is a strategic asset. This role owns that perception.\nWe thrive on creativity, collaboration, and fun, where every idea is welcomed and celebrated. As shareholders in the company, we’re more than just communicators-we’re innovators shaping the future together. We are Unifones. Join us and be part of something extraordinary!\nMeet the team!\nOur Engineering team is responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining the systems and technologies that drive Unifonic’s solutions. We work closely with other departments to ensure our products and services meet the needs of our customers. If you are passionate about technology and are excited about working on cutting-edge communication and engagement solutions, we want you on our team.\nAs a Mobile Platform Engineer, you’ll own our SDK platform end to end-treating it like a product that developers rely on every day. You’ll shape the foundations that make our mobile experiences reliable, extensible, and easy to integrate.\nYour week will span the full platform lifecycle: roughly a third of your time will go into the shells, packaging, and add-ons that bring the SDK to life; about a fifth will focus on the core SDK and the contracts that keep it stable and predictable. The rest will take you across customer troubleshooting, release engineering, documentation, and exploring new platform capabilities.\nHelp us shape the future of communication by:\nDesigning the public API of the SDK on your primary platform and keep it idiomatic: async and AsyncSequence on iOS, suspend and Flow on Android, Promises and events on the web.\n\nWriting the contract for each feature by hand: new event and command variants in the core, the public API shape, and the conformance vectors that every shell must pass.\n\nImplementing features in the Rust core and the shell executors, with coding agents doing much of the typing and you owning every line that merges.\n\nTranslating OS lifecycle into SDK behavior: scene phases, process death, background limits, push wake-ups, connectivity changes, app extensions.\n\nBuilding and keeping green the release pipeline: one coordinated release produces the XCFramework, AAR, npm packages and sample apps, signed, with symbols, SBOM and privacy manifest.\n\nRunning the consumer test matrix: tiny storefront apps per configuration (minimum Xcode and AGP, R8 full mode, arm64-only ABI filters, React Native new architecture, Expo prebuild, Vite, webpack, Next.js).\n\nHandling merchant tickets on rotation: triage by layer, replay diagnostics bundles, fix with a new vector or platform test, ship a patch release.\n\nShipping platform-specific add-ons beside the common SDK: rich push with product images, in-app campaign UI, Android Binder service, FCM forwarding, App Attest and Play Integrity.\n\nKeeping the observability contract: structured logs with correlation ids, metrics callbacks, stable error codes, diagnostics() and selfCheck() .\n\nTracking annual OS, Xcode, AGP and React Native changes and land them before merchants hit them.\n\nWriting what you decide: ADRs, changelogs, migration notes and integration docs that a person or a coding agent can follow to a first tracked event in under 30 minutes.\n\nRequirements\nWhat you'll bring:\n7+ years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years working on a library, SDK, framework, or platform consumed by third-party developers.\n\nStrong experience with public API design and Semantic Versioning (SemVer), including managing deprecations without breaking existing customers.\n\nDeep understanding of mobile platform lifecycles, including process death and restoration, background execution limits, push wake-ups, extensions, and platform services.\n\nHands-on experience with native build systems and packaging, including publishing to a package registry and troubleshooting third-party builds.\n\nExperience with FFI and language interoperability, such as JNI/NDK on Android, C interoperability with Swift, or another production-shipped language boundary.\n\nExperience supporting third-party integrators through documentation, technical support, troubleshooting, and analyzing symbolicated crash reports.\n\nStrong testing mindset, using tests as a design tool rather than simply a validation step; experience with property-based or mutation testing is a plus.\n\nExcellent technical writing skills, with experience creating ADRs, changelogs, migration guides, and developer documentation.\n\nComfortable reviewing code across Android and iOS, with the ability to identify lifecycle, concurrency, and threading issues.\n\nStrong experience with AI-assisted development and coding agents, with the ability to thoroughly review, validate, and explain AI-generated code before it reaches production.\n\niOS\nShipping and maintaining an iOS library/SDK consumed by third parties and distributed through SPM or CocoaPods.\n\nProduction experience with Swift 6 concurrency, including actors, Sendable, and structured concurrency.\n\nBuilding or maintaing app extensions, ideally a Notification Service Extension.\n\nHands-on experience with XCFrameworks, code signing, dSYMs, and privacy manifests.\n\nAndroid\nShipping and maintaining an Android library/SDK consumed by third parties and distributed through Maven Central.\n\nExperience with consumer ProGuard/R8 rules and JNI/NDK, including native library packaging across ABIs.\n\nProduction experience with Android lifecycle and background execution, including process death, Doze, background restrictions, and WorkManager.\n\nStrong TypeScript experience, including at least one published npm package.\n\nExperience building React Native native modules using the New Architecture.\n\nAI Proficiency:\nMinimum Level: L5 - Advanced proficiency in AI-assisted software development, using AI for coding, code review, testing, debugging, and optimization.\n\nExpected: Uses AI effectively to improve development speed, code quality, and engineering efficiency.\n\nHands-on experience with Claude Code, including skill files, commands, and structured prompts.\n\nUnderstands context separation and sub-agents and knows when to use them for complex or parallel tasks.\n\nCritically reviews and validates all AI-generated code before production use.\n\nCraft & Toolkit:\nMobile SDK & Library Development\n\nPublic API Design & Versioning\n\niOS & Android Platform Expertise\n\nNative Build & Package Management\n\nFFI & Native Interoperability\n\nMobile Lifecycle & Background Execution\n\nThird-Party Integration & Support\n\nTesting & Quality Engineering\n\nTechnical Documentation\n\nAI-Assisted Software Development\n\nCharacter Traits:\nAnalytical thinking and problem-solving - approach problems clearly, use data, and find solutions.\n\nOwnership and accountability - take responsibility and follow projects through to completion.\n\nCommunication - explain ideas clearly and listen to others across teams.\n\nCollaboration - work well with others and support team goals.\n\nAdaptability and learning - adjust to change and keep learning new skills or tools.\n\nMentorship and knowledge sharing - help others grow and share what you know.\n\nResilience - stay calm under pressure and handle setbacks constructively.\n\nQuality and attention to detail - do work carefully and strive for improvement.\n\nAdvocacy and innovation - encourage best practices, efficiency, and new ideas\n\nAs a Unifone you’ll receive a range of benefits:\nCompetitive salary and bonus\n\nUnifonic share scheme (we are all owners!)\n\n30 holiday days after the first anniversary\n\nYour Birthday off!\n\nSpend up to 25 days per year working from anywhere in the world!\n\nPaid leave for new parents","description_format":"text","description_chars":7997,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Egypt","iso":"EG","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Unified Communications","Contact Center Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-15T16:31:11Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":77,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":16,"expected_fill_days":35,"reasons":["conf:2","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-10-15T22:26:26Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/unifonic-senior-mobile-platform-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/unifonic-senior-mobile-platform-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-15T22:26:26Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":34078,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-16T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":48928},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=48928"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Funifonic-senior-mobile-platform-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Funifonic-senior-mobile-platform-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Funifonic-senior-mobile-platform-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/unifonic-senior-mobile-platform-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Funifonic-senior-mobile-platform-engineer"}]}
