At MyFitnessPal, we believe good health starts with what you eat. We provide tools, resources and support to enable users to reach their health goals.

We're looking for a Mobile Developer Experience Engineer to join PEAS (Productivity Engineering: Automation & Self‑Service) in TechOps. PEAS delivers paved paths, self‑service, and automation‑first developer experiences that help product teams ship quickly and safely. Our scope includes CI/CD platforms, build and test infrastructure, security tooling, and reliability practices: all in service of developer productivity across the org.

This role is the connective tissue between PEAS and the product engineering squads that depend on our platforms, particularly on the mobile side. You'll partner closely with iOS and Android developers to understand their workflows and pain points, then translate those insights into platform improvements, tooling, and automation that make the whole org faster. You should be as comfortable pairing with a mobile engineer on a flaky test investigation as you are designing a reusable CI workflow.

We expect this person to bring an AI‑forward mindset to platform engineering as a practical lens for identifying where intelligent automation, LLM‑powered tooling, and AI‑assisted workflows can meaningfully accelerate developer productivity. You'll help set the direction for how PEAS and the broader engineering org adopt AI in day‑to‑day development.

Reporting to the Manager, Engineering (PEAS), this is a hands-on role with high autonomy, high visibility across the engineering org, and real impact on how quickly product teams can deliver.

What you’ll be doing:

Act as a liaison between PEAS and product engineering squads, especially mobile teams: building relationships, gathering feedback, and ensuring platform investments align with real developer needs
Improve CI/CD pipelines for iOS and Android, with a focus on build times, test reliability, flaky test detection, and fast feedback loops (e.g., Bitrise, GitHub Actions, Datadog CI/Test Visibility)
Help maintain and evolve shared GitHub Actions and reusable workflows (the "golden path") that give squads well‑lit, low‑friction paths to production
Identify opportunities to apply AI and intelligent automation to developer workflows (from CI/CD triage and test analysis to code review assistance and self‑service tooling) and drive adoption where the impact is real and measurable
Contribute to build and test infrastructure (CI runners, simulators, caching strategies) to keep mobile pipelines fast and reliable
Partner with PEAS teammates on security tooling and reliability practices to ensure pipelines incorporate appropriate guardrails without slowing teams down
Coach and support engineers on CI/CD best practices, dependency management, effective use of AI‑assisted development tools, and PEAS' shared tooling; create documentation and enablement materials that scale beyond 1:1 conversations
Champion a data‑driven approach to developer experience: define and track metrics (build times, failure rates, cycle time, developer satisfaction) that guide platform priorities

Qualifications to be successful in this role:

4+ years of relevant work experience
Substantial experience in software engineering with meaningful time spent in mobile development (iOS and/or Android) or mobile platform/build engineering
Strong understanding of mobile build systems (Xcode, Gradle), testing frameworks, and the developer workflows around them
Hands-on experience with CI/CD platforms, particularly GitHub Actions and mobile‑focused CI tools (e.g., Bitrise); comfort building and maintaining reusable workflows at scale
Demonstrated experience applying AI to real production workflows. Whether that's building LLM‑powered developer tools, integrating AI into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., automated triage, intelligent test selection, AI‑assisted code review), or driving adoption of AI‑assisted development practices across teams
Excellent communication and cross‑functional collaboration skills. You're the kind of engineer other teams actively want to work with, and you're energized by understanding their problems
Proficiency in one or more of PEAS' common languages: Go, TypeScript, Python; comfortable contributing to platform code, CLI tools, and automation utilities
A bias for measurable, automated solutions and a low tolerance for repetitive manual work

Bonus Points:

Experience with build/test observability tooling (e.g., Datadog CI/Test Visibility) and using data to diagnose pipeline health
Familiarity with security scanning in CI/CD (e.g., SonarQube, Snyk, secret scanning) — you don't need to be a security expert, but you're comfortable working alongside one
Experience with ArgoCD, Atlantis, Artifactory, or similar delivery and artifact management tools
Background in developer advocacy, developer relations, or internal platform product management
Experience evaluating and building with AI-assisted development tools or building internal tooling on top of LLM APIs
Experience running or contributing to an internal developer experience program (surveys, office hours, enablement)
Familiarity with cloud infrastructure and platform tooling (e.g., containers, Kubernetes, Terraform/IaC, AWS) and how mobile apps interact with backend services in a microservices environment

Values you’ll model

Be Kind and Care — build with empathy; assume positive intent; support teammates and members.
Live Good Health — champion healthy habits and balance in how we work and what we ship.
Be Data-Inspired — ground decisions in research and data; measure what matters.
Champion Change — lean into ambiguity; iterate, learn, and improve continuously.
Leave it Better than You Found It — raise quality, clarify systems, and document as you go.
Make It Happen — bias to action; deliver impact with craft and accountability.
