company-wide priority at Equifax, so this position will also play a
pivotal role in ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of our
data. In this position, you will take on the role of being a
technical authority for our mobile ecosystem. Your mission is to
help with the creation of high-performance, scalable mobile
architectures where security is not a "bolt-on" feature, but a
fundamental part of the DNA. You will empower our engineering teams
by providing the guidance, patterns, and influence to build
world-class financial services applications that are secure by
design. You will be responsible for the architectural integrity,
security, and scalability of our iOS and Android applications. As a
leader within our Mobile Center of Excellence (CoE), you will
champion a cross-platform strategy using Flutter & Dart, ensuring
that our development standards, security protocols, and deployment
pipelines are unified and world-class. Equifax has a hybrid work
schedule that allows for 2 days of remote work (Monday and Friday),

is a direct-hire role and is not open to C2C or vendors. What
You’ll Do Architecture & Design: Serve as the enterprise architect
for Equifax mobile applications, defining a secure technical stack,
framework selection, and structural patterns for iOS and Android
platforms. Center of Excellence Leadership: Establish and govern
mobile development standards, reusable component libraries, and
architectural patterns to be used across all internal and
external-facing apps. Secure Engineering: Research and develop
"Golden Path" architectural patterns that allow developers to ship
code quickly without sacrificing security or integrity. Technical
Roadmap: Drive the mobile strategy, creating reference
architectures and implementation guides for web and mobile-native
applications. Vulnerability Mitigation: Lead the strategy for
detecting and remediating vulnerabilities within the development
lifecycle (shifting security and privacy to the left).
Collaborative Leadership: Partner with product and engineering
squads to translate complex business requirements into secure,
high-quality technical designs. Policy as Code: Develop and
maintain technical standards and guidelines that automate security
best practices within the CI/CD pipeline; serve as the mobile
representative in strategic architecture and compliance reviews.
Mentorship: Provide thought leadership and technical coaching to
mobile developers and QA teams on modern secure-coding techniques.
Supply Chain Security: Drive the strategy for evaluating and
monitoring third-party mobile SDKs, open-source libraries, and
vendor dependencies through SCA tooling and SBOM generation, in
line with SDLC standards. Additional
Qualifications/Responsibilities Engineering Foundation: 7–10 years
of professional experience in Mobile Software Engineering and
Architecture. You should have a proven track record of shipping
complex, large-scale mobile apps. Mobile-First Mindset: Deep
expertise in mobile-specific languages and frameworks (e.g.,
Swift/Kotlin, React Native, or Flutter) and a strong understanding
of mobile OS internals. Security Integration: At least 3 years of
experience specifically focused on Application Security, with a
mastery of how to bake security into the IDE, build process, and
runtime. Tools & Protocols: Strong knowledge of encryption
protocols, modern authentication (OIDC, OAuth 2.0, Biometrics), and
the OWASP Mobile Top 10. Problem Solving: The ability to articulate
complex architectural challenges to both executive leadership and
junior engineers. Education: Bachelor’s degree in Engineering,
Computer Science, or a related technical field. What Could Set You
Apart MAST Expertise: Experience with Mobile Application Security
Testing (MAST) and automated security tooling within Jenkins or
Git-based pipelines. AI features in mobile: Governing on-device ML
(e.g. Core ML, TensorFlow Lite) and LLM-integrated features from a
security and privacy perspective. Cloud Native: Experience building
and securing the backend APIs (NodeJS, Java, or Python) that power
mobile apps, particularly within GCP or AWS. Zero Trust for mobile
endpoints: Device trust scoring, MDM/MAM integration (Intune,
Jamf), and mobile application management. Mobile observability and
resilience: Experience with crash intelligence platforms and
defining mobile-specific SLOs/SLIs that feed into SRE design
reviews. Certifications: Professional credentials that bridge the
gap between Dev and Sec (e.g., CASE, GWEB, or CISSP). Industry
Leadership: Experience navigating the unique security and
regulatory requirements of the Financial Services sector.
