Software Engineer, Native Mobile
About the Role:
Glean is seeking a Senior Software Engineer, Mobile, to accelerate our development of fully native apps for iOS and Android. Today our apps wrap the web app; you will replace them with native Swift/SwiftUI and Kotlin/Jetpack Compose apps, harnessing AI to deliver a new refined and polished mobile experience. You will be responsible for setting strong technical foundations for these new codebases.
You will:
Build the apps
Build and ship native iOS and Android apps in Swift/SwiftUI and Kotlin/Jetpack Compose.
Ship user-facing features end to end: search, AI assistant, agents, notifications, and OS integrations such as widgets, App Intents, share extensions, live voice modes and more.
Build experiences that feel native on each platform, following Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and Google’s Material Design, with strong accessibility, performance, and offline behavior.
Define the mobile architecture: module boundaries, networking, persistence, concurrency, observability, and performance budgets.
Build the infrastructure
Own mobile CI/CD: automated builds and tests, code signing, TestFlight and Play Store deployment, phased rollouts, and release health monitoring.
Set up an AI-native development workflow: an agent-friendly repo, automated test generation, AI-assisted review, and tooling that lets coding agents build, run, and verify mobile changes.
Own enterprise readiness
Build, sign, and ship enterprise app variants with their own configuration and distribution requirements.
Own mobile authentication end to end: OAuth 2.0/PKCE, OIDC/SAML SSO, secure token and session handling, and identity-provider policies such as conditional access and device trust.
Make the apps work in managed and BYOD environments: MDM, MAM, managed app configuration, app protection policies, and Android Enterprise work profiles.
Design admin-controlled data protection (downloads, sharing, copy/paste, screenshots) with Security and Admin teams, and emit reliable audit events for customer security tooling.
Represent mobile in enterprise security reviews and validate behavior on real managed and unmanaged devices.
About you:
6+ years of software engineering experience, with 4+ years shipping production mobile apps on both iOS and Android.
Proficiency in Swift or Kotlin with working knowledge of the other, and willingness to develop cross-platform fluency, as you will be responsible for both iOS and Android.
You have owned mobile CI/CD pipelines and release infrastructure (e.g. Fastlane, Xcode Cloud, GitHub Actions, Gradle, code signing, staged rollouts).
You use AI coding tools daily to ship faster without lowering the quality bar, and have opinions on structuring a codebase and toolchain so agents work in it effectively.
Experience with mobile auth: OAuth 2.0/PKCE, OIDC/SAML, MSAL, ASWebAuthenticationSession / Custom Tabs, Keychain and Android Keystore.
Experience shipping OS integrations (widgets, App Intents / Shortcuts, extensions, background work) on at least one platform.
Startup mindset: comfortable owning problems end to end, from infra to pixels, in an ambiguous environment.
Nice to have: migrating a hybrid or cross-platform app to native; shipping in MDM/MAM-managed enterprise environments.
Location:
This role is hybrid (4 days a week in our Mountain View or San Francisco office)
Compensation & Benefits:
