Why This Role


This is not a feature factory role.


This is not maintaining an enterprise mobile application.


This is not joining a large mobile team where you'll own one small component.


This is ownership.


You'll become one of the key engineers responsible for the future of the iOS experience, helping build the next generation of an AI-native consumer platform used by millions of people.


You will:

  • Own major areas of the native iOS application.
  • Build polished, high-performance consumer experiences using Swift.
  • Work closely with Product, Design, Backend, and Mobile Engineering to rapidly ship new features.
  • Define engineering best practices and influence the future direction of the iOS platform.
  • Use AI development tools such as Cursor, Claude, and GitHub Copilot as part of your daily workflow to accelerate development and product iteration.


Skills:

  • 3–5+ years of professional iOS development experience.
  • Deep expertise with Swift and the native iOS SDK.
  • Experience shipping consumer-facing iOS applications into production.
  • Experience building high-engagement B2C mobile products
  • Experience working in startup or fast-moving product environments with significant ownership.
  • Strong product instincts and attention to mobile UX, quality, and performance.
  • Daily use of AI coding tools such as Cursor, Claude, or GitHub Copilot.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or another STEM discipline is preferred.


Other Skills:

  • Experience with SwiftUI and UIKit.
  • Experience with Flutter.
  • Experience building AI-native products.
  • Exposure to Android or backend development.
  • A combination of startup and larger consumer technology company experience.


How The Company Works


  • AI-native engineering – AI tools are expected to be part of your everyday development workflow.
  • High ownership – Engineers own products, not tickets.
  • Product-first culture – Strong engineering paired with exceptional product taste.
  • Small team, big impact – Work directly with Product, Design, and Leadership to influence both technical and product direction.
