Job Description

Want to build the digital play experiences that bring LEGO products to life?

This role helps ensure that strong mobile engineering becomes a foundational capability across our portfolio rather than something solved app by app. By driving architecture, improving development practices, and supporting both modern cross-platform and legacy applications, you’ll give the team the technical strength to move faster and build with confidence. Your work will directly support the broader organization’s ambition to deliver high-quality digital play experiences that children love and families trust.

Responsibilities

  • Design, architect, develop, and maintain scalable cross-platform mobile applications for LEGO consumers.

  • Lead technical decisions on app architecture, code structure, and platform strategy to support long-term scalability and maintainability.

  • Maintain and evolve legacy Unity applications by delivering new features and supporting upcoming LEGO products and experiences.

  • Partner closely with UI/UX designers to deliver world-class user experiences with high attention to quality, usability, and visual detail.

  • Ensure high engineering standards across code quality, testing, automation, release processes, and application reliability.

  • Collaborate with Quality Assurance and Consumer Service teams to identify issues, improve app performance, and enhance customer satisfaction across multiple products.

  • Mentor and support other engineers on architectural patterns, scalable development practices, and modern cross-platform frameworks and tools.

Requirements

  • Hands-on production experience with Unity or a similar cross-platform mobile app framework (Flutter, React Native, KMP, etc.).

  • Strong software engineering fundamentals, including architecture, object-oriented design, testing, debugging, and performance optimization.

  • Proven experience designing scalable, maintainable application architecture for consumer-facing mobile apps.

  • Experience working with legacy codebases and modernizing existing applications while maintaining stability and compatibility.

  • Ability to collaborate effectively across engineering, QA, design, and product teams to deliver high-quality user experiences.

  • Strong understanding of code quality practices, automated testing, CI/CD, and release processes for mobile applications.

  • Significant software engineering experience, with substantial experience developing mobile or cross-platform consumer applications.
