About the Role Alpha Sense  is moving beyond search with Super Analyst: AI-powered workflows that monitor change, update outputs, and surface what matters as situations evolve. Mobile brings that intelligence into the moments when customers are away from their desks.

Delivering those experiences through native applications presents a distinctive engineering challenge: services evolve continuously while released apps remain in customers' hands. Designing for that reality creates an opportunity to shape how Alpha Sense builds shared product capabilities, with benefits reaching well beyond iOS and Android.

Based in Mobile Engineering, you will use a close connection to customer and product needs to shape backend systems across engineering organizations. You will help decide which cross-team problems to tackle and where architectural investment will have the greatest impact, then work with the owning engineers to build and prove the solution in production.

What You'll DoShape the systems behind product experiences:
Set technical direction for client-facing APIs and the backend architecture behind them. Work with service and platform owners to simplify how backend services connect and support product workflows across clients.

Lead across engineering organizations:
Work across application, search and AI, and shared platform teams to shape technical priorities around customer and product needs. Represent Mobile with senior engineering leaders, Product, and customers, building agreement on the architecture and investment needed to deliver shared capabilities.

Turn architecture into production systems:
Lead delivery of services and subsystems that span team boundaries, from choosing the technical approach to implementing the hardest parts and proving them in production. Design these systems for reuse beyond the initial use case.

Shape shared identity and access:
Partner with User Management and platform teams to evolve how users authenticate, maintain sessions, and access product capabilities across Web and Mobile. Build native-client requirements into shared identity and configuration services.

Leave engineers and teams stronger:
Help engineers deepen their technical judgment and build the expertise to own and evolve the systems you deliver together. Combine hands-on delivery with coaching and…
