Staff Mobile SDK Engineer (iOS + Android) - WhiteLabel

Team: B2B White-Label VPN Platform

Location: Germany

About the Role

We’re building a next-generation white-label VPN platform that allows enterprises to seamlessly embed secure connectivity into their own apps. As a Senior/Staff Mobile SDK Engineer, you will own the development of platform-specific SDK layers that power these integrations across iOS and Android.

This role is deeply focused on SDK and systems-level mobile engineering. You’ll work on networking, performance, and platform abstractions that enable reliable, secure VPN experiences at scale.

What You’ll Do

• Implement and maintain platform-specific SDK wrappers:


• iOS (Swift, Network Extension / NEPacketTunnelProvider)


• Android (Kotlin, VpnService) — strong focus area


• Collaborate closely with engineers to ensure consistent, clean API design across platforms


• Build abstractions that simplify VPN integration for external developers


• Optimize SDK performance for latency, connection stability, and battery efficiency


• Handle connection lifecycle management, error handling, and edge cases across devices and OS versions


• Contribute to SDK architecture, modularity, and extensibility


• Build and maintain demo integration applications


• Document your components, traits, and implementation details clearly


• Support enterprise clients for integration and platform-specific issues

We approach engineering through the following principles: Testing by default, always CI/CD, data and automation-centered, with security at the core. We empower our engineers to make their own decisions about the tools and technologies that best address the problems they are trying to solve. 

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience in mobile SDK / library development 


• Good expertise in Android (Kotlin, VpnService) & iOS (Swift & Network Extensive framework)


• Strong understanding of mobile networking and system-level APIs


• Experience designing clean, stable, developer-friendly SDK APIs


• Solid understanding in software design principles and architectures


• Experience with unit testing and test-driven development (TDD) is highly valued


• Strong problem-solving and debugging skills

Nice to Have

• Experience with VPN technologies


• Experience working on B2B / white-label platforms


• Knowledge of mobile security best practices (encryption, secure storage, certificate pinning)

We believe in fostering an environment that empowers decision-making at all levels. Our culture is rooted in the inverted pyramid approach, where the engineers, who have a deep understanding of the product and the customers, are the ones who have the knowledge and the authority to make impactful decisions.
