We are seeking a hands-on engineering leader to own our device-native technology organization. You will be responsible for leading both the Device SDK and Mobile Engineering teams, overseeing the development of our native SDKs, spatial computing runtimes, and flagship mobile applications.

This is a hybrid leadership role that combines people management, technical leadership, architecture, and hands-on engineering. You must be equally comfortable mentoring engineers, defining technical strategy, reviewing architecture, and contributing production code.
