You will serve as a key contributor to the development of our flagship iOS client. A significant part of this role
involves working closely with product managers, designers, and other software engineers to translate
high-level requirements into high-quality, impactful features. You will be instrumental in the end-to-end
development lifecycle: from initial design and architectural planning to implementation, testing, and
deployment.
Crucially, you will act as a technical leader and custodian for the entire iOS codebase. This includes
establishing and maintaining best practices, code standards, and the overall technical quality of the application.
You will mentor and guide other engineers, contributing to a continuous learning environment that elevates the
team’s collective ability to write clean, maintainable, and performant Swift code, ensuring the consistent and
reliable delivery of our vital iOS client to users globally.
This role requires a high degree of autonomy in executing complex technical tasks while collaborating
effectively within a small, fast-moving team to ensure technical decisions align with the overall product vision.
You will be a hands-on contributor, focused on delivering high-quality code that directly impacts our consumer
finance app for emerging markets.
As an iOS Software Engineer we feel the following will be important for this role:
● 7+ Years of Professional iOS Development: Demonstrated history of shipping and maintaining
multiple iOS applications used by a significant user base.
● Expert Proficiency in Swift: Deep, expert-level knowledge of the Swift language, including modern
language features.
● Deep Understanding of the Apple Ecosystem: Expert knowledge of the latest iOS SDKs, APIs, and
the Apple Human Interface Guidelines (HIG).
● Architectural Expertise: Proven experience designing, implementing, and maintaining complex,
scalable, and modular iOS application architectures (e.g., MVVM, Clean Architecture, VIPER) and
knowing when to apply each.
● Extensive Experience with Modern UI Frameworks: Expert-level knowledge and hands-on
experience with both SwiftUI and UIKit, including advanced layout techniques (Auto Layout,
programmatic views, custom view components) and navigating the interoperability between the two.
● Networking & Data Handling:
○ Expertise in consuming RESTful APIs, HTTP, and/or leveraging WebSockets.
○ Deep understanding of secure data storage, caching strategies, and offline capabilities.
● Concurrency and Performance Optimization: Proven ability to identify and resolve performance
bottlenecks, memory leaks, and complex concurrency issues using modern Swift tools and techniques
(Grand Central Dispatch, Operations, async/await).
● Testing and Quality Assurance: Strong experience implementing and driving adoption of various
testing methodologies, including unit tests, integration tests, and UI tests (e.g., XCTest, Swift Testing,
mock objects).
● Dependency Management: Expertise with common dependency managers (e.g., Swift Package
Manager, CocoaPods).
● CI/CD Pipeline Experience: Experience setting up, maintaining, or optimizing Continuous
Integration/Continuous Delivery pipelines (e.g., Fastlane, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Xcode Cloud) for
iOS builds and deployments.
● Senior+ (Senior, Staff, Principal, Distinguished) Engineer - You’re a strong technical practitioner
who has tempered their thirst for theory with the harsh reality of practical implementation. Knowing
when and where to execute autonomously while still being a team player.
Bonus Skills
These are not required but would definitely set you apart from other candidates:
● Experience in financial technology such as payments, cryptocurrencies, on-ramps, off-ramps, etc.
● Full-stack engineering skillset and ability to flex across other parts of the stack
● Experience working with modern startup-style web stack such as Postgres, Redis, etc.
