About the role

Technical Project Manager (Mobile – iOS & Android) We are looking for a technical project manager (TPM) to lead end-to-end delivery of native iOS and Android mobile applications. This role partners closely with product, design, engineering, QA, security, and operations to plan, execute, and release high-quality features on predictable schedules. The TPM will drive delivery rituals, manage dependencies and risks, and ensure engineering excellence across the mobile development lifecycle.
Roles & Responsibilities: 10+ years of project/program management experience delivering software products, with 2+ years focused on native mobile app delivery. Own the delivery plan for native iOS (Swift/SwiftUI) and Android (Kotlin/Jetpack) applications across multiple workstreams and teams. Build and maintain integrated project plans (roadmaps, sprint/release plans, milestones), including scope, timelines, resourcing assumptions, and critical path. Drive agile ceremonies (planning, daily stand-ups, refinement, sprint reviews, retros) and ensure team commitments are realistic and transparent. Coordinate cross-functional dependencies with product, design, backend, data, security/privacy, legal/compliance, and customer support. Manage the release process end-to-end: branching strategy alignment, release readiness, app store submission timelines, phased rollouts, and hotfix procedures. Establish and maintain delivery governance: RAID logs (risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies), change control, stakeholder reporting, and executive updates. Partner with engineering leads to improve SDLC practices: CI/CD reliability, automated testing strategy, code review SLAs, and quality gates. Ensure mobile non-functional requirements are planned and met, including performance, crash-free rate, accessibility, localization, and security. Facilitate technical decision-making by documenting trade-offs, aligning stakeholders, and tracking outcomes (ADRs, tech debt register).Support incident and on-call processes for mobile production issues: triage, communication, root cause analysis, and post-incident actions. Maintain clear documentation: release notes, runbooks, feature readiness checklists, and operational playbooks. Generic Managerial Skills, If AnyDemonstrated experience managing iOS and/or Android releases in production, including app store submission processes and release/rollback strategies. Strong understanding of agile delivery (Scrum/Kanban) and ability to adapt practices to team maturity and product constraints. Working technical fluency with mobile architecture concepts (MVVM/MVI, modularization), API integration, authentication flows, analytics, and push notifications. Experience coordinating distributed teams and external vendors/partners, including dependency and expectation management. Proven ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders; comfortable presenting status, risks, and trade-offs. Strong problem-solving skills with a track record of unblocking teams and driving decisions to closure.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
