Senior Mobile Engineer – iOS/Android, Realtime AI

This is a remote position.

We’re hiring a Senior Engineer to build production mobile apps and services that integrate with Meta’s Glasses SDK for RayBan Meta smart glasses. You’ll design and ship hands-free, voice-first, vision-enabled experiences that span the glasses, a companion iOS/Android app, and cloud AI. This is a highly cross-functional role at the intersection of mobile, real-time audio/video, Bluetooth/WiFi transport, and multimodal AI.

What You’ll Do

• Own end-to-end development of a companion mobile app that interfaces with RayBan Meta smart glasses via Meta’s Glasses SDK
• Implement reliable capture and streaming pipelines for camera preview frames, stills, and multichannel audio, with strict attention to latency, battery, and privacy indicators (camera LED, permissions)
• Build voice-first UX: wakeword handoff, push-to-talk flows, VAD/ASR/TTS, earcons, and low-latency audio playback on openear speakers
• Integrate on-phone computer vision and speech models (Core ML, MediaPipe, ONNX Runtime, NNAPI) and orchestrate cloud inference for multimodal LLMs (e.g., Llama 3family vision/voice) via streaming APIs
• Handle transport and connectivity: Bluetooth LE control channels, WiFi/WiFi Direct media streaming, reconnect logic, and state machines for device pairing and session lifecycles
• Design resilient, observable pipelines with backpressure, retries, offline fallbacks, and graceful degradation when thermals, bandwidth, or permissions change
• Collaborate with product/design on voice-first interaction patterns; run user tests; instrument metrics for latency, accuracy, and task completion
• Establish mobile CI/CD, automated testing (unit/integration/BT device in the loop), crash/error analytics, and release processes
• Champion privacy by design and compliance with platform and bystander safety policies
