About the company

Trust Wallet is the leading non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet, trusted by over 200 million people worldwide to securely manage and grow their digital assets. Our vision is to give individuals the freedom to own their assets, confidently participate in the future economy, and access opportunities that enhance their lives.

With support for over 10 million assets across 100+ blockchains, Trust Wallet offers a seamless, multi-chain experience backed by industry-leading self-custody technology, a vibrant community, and a growing ecosystem of partners.


The Opportunity

We’re hiring a Senior Mobile Release Engineer to own the end-to-end mobile build & release pipeline for iOS and Android. You’ll design, operate, and scale the CI/CD systems that produce our apps; keep code signing healthy; and automate delivery to TestFlight and Play Console. Your north star: fast, reliable, observable releases that mobile engineers trust.

You’ll partner closely with mobile engineers and platform teams to standardize workflows across Kotlin Multiplatform, React Native, and native codebases.


Responsibilities

  • CI/CD Ownership: Architect, maintain, and harden mobile pipelines (primarily GitHub Actions; similar tools a plus) for build, test, sign, and release.

  • Build Farm & Runners: Operate macOS build hosts and Linux runners (autoscaling, capacity, caching, images, lifecycle). Keep Xcode/SDK toolchains in sync and reproducible.

  • Release Engineering: Define the release train (branching, semantic versioning, tagging, changelogs), manage TestFlight / Play promotion (alpha → beta → prod), phased rollouts, and rollbacks.

  • Code Signing at Scale: Own certs/profiles/keystores rotation, secure storage, and automated provisioning; eliminate manual steps and flaky signing.

  • Tooling & Automation: Build and evolve Fastlane/Gradle/Xcodebuild scripts, artifact storage (S3/Artifactory), symbol uploads (dSYMs/ProGuard), and cache strategies (Gradle remote cache, derived data).

  • Observability: Instrument pipelines with metrics and alerts (queue time, success rate, median/p95 duration, cache hit rate). Publish dashboards and SLOs for builds and releases.

  • Performance & Reliability: Drive down build/test time; de-flake critical jobs; enforce concurrency limits and test sharding; keep green builds predictable.

  • Security & Compliance: Implement OIDC-based secrets, least-privilege runners, SBOM/attestations for mobile artifacts, and audit trails for store submissions.

  • Developer Experience: Create templates, reusable actions, and docs; make local setup fast and consistent. Unblock engineers quickly with crisp runbooks.

  • Governance: Gate production promotion on quality signals (crash/ANR thresholds, perf checks, test coverage) and ensure release checklists are followed.

Qualifications

  • Deep hands-on with Xcodebuild / Xcode Cloud concepts, Fastlane, Gradle/AGP; comfort across KMP, React Native, and native projects.

  • 5+ years in Build/Release/DevOps roles, 3+ yrs focused on mobile CI/CD.

  • Proven experience running GitHub Actions (or CircleCI/Jenkins) for mobile at scale: reusable workflows, composite actions, caches, matrices.

  • Operated macOS build hosts (EC2 Mac/bare-metal) and Linux runners on cloud—AMI/image mgmt, containers & K8s, patching, autoscaling, concurrency & cost control.

  • Strong code signing chops: certificates, provisioning profiles, keychains/keystores, App Store Connect & Google Play Developer APIs.

  • IaC & scripting: Terraform (or similar), plus Bash/Python to automate pipelines and infra.

  • Solid understanding of branching models, semantic versioning, and artifact/version governance.

  • Excellent debugging and cross-team communication; bias toward automation and measurable outcomes.

Nice to have:

  • Gradle, or remote build cache experience.

  • Firebase App Distribution, Crashlytics/Sentry symbolication automation.

  • GitOps patterns and secrets management in CI (e.g., OIDC to cloud KMS).

  • Mobile perf gates (TTI/ANR/crash) as release criteria; store metadata automation

What success looks like (90-180 days)

  • Build time ↓ 30–50% on core apps; p95 pipeline duration and success rate visible on dashboards.

  • Zero flaky signing: automated cert/profile/keystore management with rotation policy.

  • Green, predictable releases: weekly/bi-weekly trains with phased rollouts and one-click rollback.

  • Observability in place: alerts for queue spikes, cache misses, failures; clear runbooks.

  • Developer friction ↓: standardized templates/actions; new apps onboarded to CI in <1 day.
