Lead mobile engineering for Yassir’s Rider and Driver applications, supporting real-time mobility services across more than 45 cities.
- Own architecture and delivery for two core mobile applications serving millions of riders and drivers.
- Lead iOS super-app modularization with Tuist, decoupling Ride, Driver, and mobility capabilities across more than 20 services.
- Apply Clean Architecture and SOLID principles to enable parallel squad delivery and reduce tightly coupled dependencies.
- Design near-real-time location tracking using WebSockets: Driver publishes coordinates every few seconds during active trips while Rider subscribes to movement updates.
- Use Core Location accuracy, timestamps, permissions, GPS settings, and network telemetry to identify stale or unreliable location data.
- Configure background location through When In Use and Always permissions, desired accuracy, distance filters, lifecycle handling, and timely shutdown to control battery usage.
- Lead code reviews, architecture decisions, mentoring, performance optimization, and production incident resolution.
- Support payments, maps, push notifications, geolocation, and high-volume multi-region mobile workflows.
