Within the Mobile Platform Team, you'll join a multidisciplinary group of professionals that look after the foundations behind our apps. We build and maintain the shared platform product teams depending on, and we work across teams to connect platform needs with product delivery. The goal is simple: help teams move faster without having to solve the same problems over and over.  

Over the past year, we've shipped a lot of improvements across both platform and key customer journeys. Just a few examples: we migrated the app to Expo, modernized our CI/CD pipelines with EAS, shipped a refreshed onboarding flow, and replaced our in-app chat provider. This didn't change for the sake of it. It's helped us create a mobile ecosystem that's easier to maintain, more reliable, and nicer to work in day to day.

Next up, we're continuing to strengthen the platform with better tooling and automation, higher quality and reliability, and steady improvements to shared flows. We're currently looking at areas like authentication and onboarding, navigation standards, testing and observability, performance benchmarking, accessibility tooling, and internationalization. There's plenty of room to influence what we tackle next, and to help shape mobile development at Essent scales across teams.
