• Ensure testing and quality: Implement robust testing across unit, integration, and end-to-end layers, promoting TDD and quality-first principles in every release.

• Own CI/CD and infrastructure: Oversee build pipelines, release automation, and deployment workflows to ensure fast, safe, and predictable releases.

• Monitor and optimise performance: Use analytics and monitoring tools (e.g. Firebase, Crashlytics, AppCenter) to identify improvements and maintain stability.

• Guide architecture and technology choices: Evaluate and apply the right approach (native vs. cross-platform), ensuring long-term maintainability.

• Collaborate across TrustFlight: Work closely with Product, Platform, and Cloud Engineering to deliver secure, scalable, and compliant mobile solutions.
