at Iberdrola
🏢 About Iberdrola
Iberdrola is a global leader in renewable energy, specifically accelerating America's transition to clean power through sustainable solutions. What makes them unique is their commitment to ethical practices while driving innovation in the energy sector, offering the chance to work on technology that directly impacts environmental sustainability.
About This Role
As Senior Digital Tech Lead, you'll architect and deliver native mobile applications (iOS/Swift and Android/Kotlin) while providing hands-on technical leadership to engineers. This role is impactful because you'll define architectural guidelines and own CI/CD pipelines, directly supporting Iberdrola's mission to modernize energy access through digital solutions.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day involves reviewing mobile architecture designs with your engineering team, hands-on coding in Swift or Kotlin for critical features, optimizing CI/CD pipelines for faster deployments, and meeting with business stakeholders to align technical decisions with clean energy objectives. You'll split time between technical leadership, development work, and strategic planning for Iberdrola's mobile platforms.
