ABOUT AIRTASKER Airtasker is Australia's leading platform connecting people who need work done with skilled people who want to do it. We make it easy for everyday Australians to get things done, from furniture assembly to full home renovations, while giving Taskers a flexible way to earn on their own terms. We're a remote-friendly team based primarily in Sydney, building a platform that has facilitated millions of tasks and helped hundreds of thousands of Taskers grow their businesses. ABOUT THE ROLE Engineering at Airtasker is agentic: we work spec-first, directing autonomous systems that author code and curating the context that makes them effective. We're looking for a Senior Mobile Engineer who already builds this way and who knows native mobile inside out: someone who can take a fascinating architectural problem, decompose it into agent-executable work, and ship it to production standards across iOS and Android. This isn't a role where AI experience is "a plus". Working this way is the job. This is a 12 month contract covering a parental leave. WHAT YOU'LL DO * Deliver mobile features through spec-driven, agentic workflows: write clear specs and acceptance criteria, then direct and verify agent-led implementation to production standards. Design agent workflows that solve recurring team problems, defining boundaries, escalation points and where humans stay in the loop. Curate the context that makes agents effective: repo maps, architecture summaries, decision logs and reusable task templates. Own delivery end-to-end: clarify requirements, do the technical research, engage stakeholders and clear blockages. Ship and maintain production apps across the full release cycle: store submission, phased rollout, and crash monitoring. Partner with Product, Data and Design to deliver core mobile roadmap initiatives. WHAT YOU'LL BRING Must-have * Strong native iOS development in Swift and native Android development in Kotlin, with hands-on experience shipping and maintaining production apps on both platforms. Solid grasp of mobile architecture and platform fundamentals: lifecycle, state and offline handling, performance and memory. Fluency with AI coding tools (like Claude Code) across the full development lifecycle: exploration, implementation, refactoring, debugging, tests and docs. A spec-first mindset: you decompose work into agent-executable units with clear constraints and acceptance criteria. The root-cause habit: when AI output goes wrong, you stop and ask what was missing from the prompt, the context or the plan, and fix the upstream artifact, not just the symptom. Deep care for the product and commercial context your team operates in. Nice-to-have * React Native or other cross-platform experience, including native modules and bridging. Mobile CI/CD experience: Fastlane, code signing, automated store deployment. Experience designing multi-step or multi-agent systems, including orchestration and human/agent handoffs. Experience instrumenting and evaluating AI workflows: evals, regression checks, reasoning about cost, latency and quality tradeoffs. Experience with marketplaces or two-sided platforms.
