Head of Mobile Engineering, Dailymotion

• We're looking for someone who is still deeply connected to the craft, able to code, review architecture, and technically challenge the team every day
• If you've thrived in high-growth startups or scale-ups, shipped consumer apps to millions of users, and you still get excited by a clean architecture or a well-optimized render pipeline, this role was written for you
• Proven track record building and scaling high-traffic B2C consumer apps, with millions of active users and real product impact
• Startup or scale-up DNA: you've navigated fast iteration cycles, ambiguity, and aggressive growth targets; you know what "moving fast without breaking things" actually means
• Proven experience leading mobile teams in product-driven, high-velocity environments
• Still deeply technical : you can roll up your sleeves, contribute to the codebase, and meaningfully challenge your engineers on architecture, performance, and trade-offs
• Strong product and business mindset : you think in terms of user impact, retention, and engagement, not just engineering tickets
• Data-driven leadership : you make decisions based on metrics, analytics, and business outcomes
• Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively across Product, Design, QA, and Backend
• Fluent in English / French is a plus
• We're looking for the right person to join the team, not just a perfect resume. If this role excites you but your experience doesn't align perfectly with every requirement, we still want to hear from you
