Job Description & Responsibilities

Role Overview

We are looking for a highly skilled iOS Engineer who lives and breathes the Apple ecosystem but isn't afraid to dive into the server-side. You won't just be building apps; you will be navigating the internals of iOS, and building the APIs that power these interactions. This role is perfect for a developer who enjoys "how things work" under the hood—from XCTest and mobile-subsystems to scalable backend services in Python or Go.

Key Responsibilitie

  • sBackend API Development (50-60%): During key infrastructure sprints, you will focus heavily on building, scaling, and maintaining the Python or Go services
  • .iOS Core Development (40-50%): Design and maintain complex iOS applications and frameworks using Swift and Objective-C
  • .System-Level Engineering: Deep dive into iOS internals (processes, security, and automation frameworks) to support custom hardware or software integrations
  • .Backend Integration: Develop, test, and maintain robust, scalable APIs in Python (FastAPI/Flask) or Go to support mobile features and data synchronization
  • .Ecosystem Troubleshooting: Provide high-level technical support for the entire Apple stack, including code-signing, provisioning, MDM (Mobile Device Management), and CI/CD pipelines
  • .Collaboration: Work closely with infrastructure teams to ensure mobile devices are correctly isolated and containerized within our broader service environment
