Lead iOS Engineer ID71270

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Lead iOS Engineer to support a platform‑focused team, contributing hands‑on to iOS implementation while raising the technical bar across architecture, quality practices, and AI‑assisted delivery. You will design and maintain MVVM‑based iOS architecture, integrate third‑party SDKs and cloud‑connected platform functionality, and select and implement appropriate testing strategies for the team. The role requires strong ownership in a high‑ambiguity environment, turning unclear requirements into clear technical plans with minimal supervision.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Design, build, and maintain high‑quality iOS platform capabilities that support consumer‑facing experiences;
• Contribute hands‑on to iOS architecture and implementation, including MVVM and modular architecture patterns where appropriate;
• Integrate third‑party SDKs and platform services into the iOS application;
• Work across networking layers, API integrations, and backend‑connected mobile features;
• Support Cloud Code‑related implementation and integration needs where applicable;
• Own iOS work end‑to‑end, from technical design and implementation through validation, release readiness, and iteration;
• Select, introduce, and implement appropriate testing and quality tools based on the codebase, delivery needs, and platform constraints;
• Improve release confidence through pragmatic quality practices, balancing test coverage, maintainability, delivery speed, and platform constraints;
• Provide technical guidance through code reviews, pairing, and architecture discussions;
• Apply AI‑assisted engineering practices where they improve delivery speed, code quality, debugging, refactoring, documentation, or tooling, while maintaining engineering judgment and review discipline;
• Communicate clearly with stakeholders, surface risks early, and keep progress visible across time zones.

MUST HAVES

• 5+ years of experience as an iOS engineer with strong hands‑on Swift/iOS implementation experience;
• Strong experience building and shipping production iOS applications at scale;
• Practical experience designing and maintaining iOS architecture, especially MVVM ;
• Strong ownership mindset: able to operate with limited supervision, take ambiguous requirements, validate assumptions, and turn them into clear technical plans;
• Experience integrating third‑party SDKs in production mobile applications;
• Strong understanding of networking, API integration, error handling, and mobile‑backend interaction patterns;
• Experience with Cloud Code or comparable cloud‑connected mobile/platform functionality;
• Strong judgment around iOS quality practices, including the ability to choose and implement appropriate testing tools for the team rather than only writing tests;
• Ability to evaluate the team’s quality needs and select suitable approaches for unit, integration, UI, snapshot, contract, or other relevant test coverage;
• Comfortable using AI‑assisted engineering tools responsibly as part of normal development work, including implementation support, debugging, refactoring, documentation, test/tooling work, and technical exploration;
• Strong communication habits, visible progress updates, early risk/blocker escalation, and reliable collaboration across time zones.

NICE TO HAVES

• Experience with modular iOS architecture in large‑scale consumer applications;
• Experience defining or improving team‑level testing strategy, not just contributing individual tests;
• Experience introducing or improving testing tooling for iOS teams;
• Experience working on platform teams or shared mobile foundations used by multiple product teams;
• Experience with cloud‑connected mobile features, backend‑for‑frontend patterns, or services that require close mobile/backend coordination;
• Prior experience in high‑ambiguity environments where requirements need discovery, validation, and technical shaping before implementation;
• Practical experience using AI tools to improve engineering workflows while preserving code quality, security, and authenticity.
