About the Team The Pet Experiences team builds the mobile product layer that brings pets into the family — pet profiles, activity timelines, care coordination, lost pet alerts, and third-party integrations. We sit within Life360's Devices org, but our work is squarely in the consumer product layer: building experiences that help families care for, track, and stay connected to their pets. We ship frequently, own our features end to end, and work closely with cloud, design, and product to define what pet ownership looks like inside Life360. We are an AI-Native team. AI isn't an add-on to how we work — it's how we work. We've redesigned our development workflows around AI, using it as a first-class collaborator at every stage: spec writing, code generation, test authoring, incident triage, and system design. We ship faster and go deeper because of it. We're looking for engineers who want to help define what AI-native mobile development looks like for a high-traffic consumer product. About the Job As a Senior Mobile Engineer on the Pet Experiences team, you'll build and own the iOS and/or Android experiences across our full pet product features — activity timelines, care routines, weekly roundups, lost pet alerts, and the integrations that extend our reach beyond the app. You'll work closely with cloud engineers and PM to take features from spec to production, own quality on your platform, and contribute to raising the bar for how the team builds. You don't just use AI tools. You think natively in them. Your primary workflow involves orchestrating agents to create specs, generate code and tests, verify results, and perform reviews. You'll help establish and evolve AI-native engineering practices for the Pet Experiences team while delivering features that ship to production weekly. This role is open to iOS or Android specialists or someone proficient in both . Tell us which platform is your home. For candidates based in the US, the salary range for this position is $148,000 to $216,000 USD. For candidates based out of Canada, the salary range for this position is $171,500 to $201,000 CAD.   Note: Please be aware that the job title for positions in Canada will be "Developer" in lieu of "Engineer." We take into consideration an individual's background and experience in determining final salary- therefore, base pay offered may vary considerably depending on geographic location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The compensation package includes a wide range of medical, dental, vision, financial, and other benefits, as well as equity. What You'll Do Design, build, and ship mobile features for pet activity timelines, care coordination, weekly summaries, and lost pet alert flows — using AI (Claude Code) as a first-class collaborator in your daily development workflow. Use agentic workflows to increase delivery velocity without sacrificing quality: from generating feature scaffolding to writing and validating test coverage to root cause analysis during incidents. Collaborate with cloud, design, and product to define APIs, data contracts, and end-to-end workflows across the pet product surface. Consume event-driven data pipelines (trip/dwell events, care routines, Kafka-backed aggregations) and translate them into clear, reliable user experiences. Own feature quality on your platform — iOS (Swift, SwiftUI / RIBs, SPM) or Android (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Dagger) or both. Instrument features for observability, crash-free sessions, and quality compliance; partner with the release team on Crashlytics triage. Write clean, testable, performant code; contribute to CI/CD automation and improve team-wide engineering standards. What We're Looking For 5+ years of experience shipping production iOS or Android applications at scale, or both. iOS: deep Swift, Combine/async-await, SwiftUI and/or UIKit, SPM, instrumentation. Android: deep Kotlin, coroutines/Flow, Jetpack Compose, Dagger/Hilt, Gradle. Hands-on experience prompting, evaluating, and building with LLMs — not just autocomplete, but as a genuine development partner. Deep experience with agentic workflows, prompt engineering, context window management, and MCP/function calling. A track record of using AI tooling to multiply your own output — faster specs, better test coverage, cleaner code, faster debugging. Strong experience with mobile architecture patterns, modularization, and dependency management at scale. Experience integrating with REST/gRPC backends, event-driven pipelines, push notifications, and persistent local storage. Ability to collaborate across teams (cloud, design, product) and articulate technical tradeoffs clearly. Bachelor’s degree or equivalent Nice-to-Have Experience building consumer pet, h
