• Build and ship mobile platform capabilities across Android, iOS, and HarmonyOS, including client architecture, core modules, and developer-facing libraries; integrate clean APIs and REST/GraphQL service interactions.
• Prototype AI-assisted development workflows for mobile engineering using coding agents (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, Codex): evaluate productivity/quality impact, establish guardrails, and create repeatable patterns (templates, prompts, linters, tests, CI checks).
• Evaluate and benchmark cross-platform approaches (Flutter, Kotlin Multiplatform, Rust Cross-platform) and emerging OS capabilities; deliver POCs, performance comparisons, and recommendations for adoption, reliability, and maintainability.
