Senior Mobile Engineer

The Bit About Urbantz At Urbantz, we help some of the world’s largest retail, grocery, e-commerce and logistics companies improve their last-mile delivery operations through smarter, more sustainable delivery management. Our SaaS platform is built for enterprise teams managing complex multi-fleet operations, helping them reduce emissions, allocate work more intelligently across carriers, build tailored workflows and create better delivery experiences for customers. More than 100 brands use Urbantz to gain better visibility and control over their delivery operations. Since launching in 2015, we’ve grown quickly across Europe, the Middle East and beyond. In 2020, Deloitte ranked us third in its annual Technology Fast 50 list. The Challenge Our app is the beating heart of the execution side of our solution. At 6am the driver scans parcels at the depot, starts the round, and always knows where to go next and when to arrive. The recipient tracks the package in real time. On arrival, the driver collects a signature and moves to the next task. Every one of these moments has to feel fast, reliable, and intuitive, for the people using the app and for the brands behind it. The tracking data then flows into our data warehouse, where it drives analysis and further improvement. Two native apps carry all of this. They handle offline operation, poor GPS reception, NFC, barcode scanning, and live updates without the driver ever having to think about it. Thousands of people depend on them every single day. This is a role for someone who likes building real, demanding mobile software: solving hard problems around connectivity and device hardware, making pragmatic technical decisions, and shipping features that genuinely improve the experience for drivers and recipients. The Day-to-Day Embedded in a product squad with a product manager, designer, and other engineers, you help shape and build features from idea to App Store release. You build features that improve the experience for delivery drivers and recipients, including scanning flows, notifications, and navigation. You refactor and modernise the iOS and Android codebases, reducing technical debt and improving architecture over time. You write tests, knowing they will prevent regressions in due time. You use AI tooling where it adds value and helps you work efficiently across both platforms without compromising quality. Our stack: Native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin), a NodeJS backend, MongoDB, GitLab CI/CD, AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes. The Must-Haves Most of all, experience in building native mobile apps (either iOS or Kotlin) in a maintainable, well-architected way. Experience improving existing codebases through refactoring, better architecture, and increased test coverage. You see testing as a normal part of software development, not something optional. You work well in collaborative product teams, communicate clearly, and know how to build alignment. You value the quality of your work. You know that any shortcut you take today will be a debt to pay in the future (but you understand sometimes taking them makes sense). You stay abreast of developments and best practices within the technologies we use. A positive attitude and a willingness to keep learning. You reside in Europe, in a time zone close to one of the Urbantz HQ (CET), and within ±4 hours of travel so that we can fly you in twice a year for our on-site team events. You have worked remotely before. You can work alone, but you shine when you work together. Pair programming, mob programming, brainstorming... you have no issue expressing your ideas, thoughts, and comments. Fluent in English. The Nice-to-Haves Five or more years of mobile development experience. An interest in last-mile logistics and operational products. Experience taking ownership of ongoing projects. The Perks Work where you choose: our fancy offices in the center of Brussels, your spare bedroom, a cabin in the woods… you decide. Autonomy to define and navigate your own path to success. A competitive salary, the right tools, and a range of fringe benefits depending on your country's location. An incredibly diverse international team and a company culture that encourages freedom, creativity, and collaboration. Opportunities to grow your expertise through training, workshops, and conferences. Team meetups in Brussels, an annual off-site somewhere sunny. Apply To This Job
