Job description

MUST HAVE: Past experience with tech companies that are Facebook (now Meta), Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and Google (now Alphabet), Microsoft, OpenAI, SpaceX, Tesla, Anthropic, Nvidia. We're hiring a Lead iOS Engineer to build the next-generation iOS experience from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to define the architecture, engineering standards, user experience, and technical direction of a new native iOS app at a company with real scale, strong momentum, and meaningful product complexity. This is not a role for someone looking to simply implement tickets. We're looking for an engineer with strong product instincts, excellent engineering judgment, and a high bar for craft, someone who wants to help define what mobile should be at company for years to come. You'll work closely with Product, Design, Backend, Data, and company leadership. You'll own critical decisions end-to-end, from architecture and developer experience to app performance, reliability, analytics, and release quality. You will also help shape our broader mobile app strategy and, over time, help build the iOS team and engineering culture around you.

Requirements

5+ years building production iOS applications with meaningful consumer-facing scale, quality, and complexity. Strong command of Swift and modern iOS development patterns. Experience building polished native experiences with strong attention to performance, usability, animation, responsiveness, and edge cases. You have led or heavily influenced architecture decisions for a substantial iOS codebase. You care deeply about product quality and can translate complex states and workflows into simple, elegant user experiences. You know how to move fast without creating long-term fragility. You're comfortable working closely with backend engineers on APIs, data contracts, and systems tradeoffs. You have strong engineering fundamentals: code quality, testing discipline, observability, release reliability, and operational ownership. You are energized by zero-to-one work and want real ownership, not a narrow lane. You bring taste and judgment. You know when to insist on quality, when to simplify, and how to make smart tradeoffs in a fast-moving company. Ideally, you've worked on high-quality consumer products at top engineering organizations or elite startups where the bar for craft and execution is exceptionally high. You're a good person. Building a startup is hard. Being thoughtful, low-ego, and great to work with should not be. We care deeply about building an ambitious team with a strong culture.
