• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Requirements

• Core Engineering Skills:
• Experience shipping production iOS features in a team codebase.
• Solid Swift and SwiftUI skills; willingness to navigate UIKit where it still exists.
• Comfort with CI, tests, and code review.
• Growing end-to-end ownership of features with guidance from Senior engineers.
• AI-First Mindset:
• Actively uses AI development tools (code copilots, AI debuggers, test generators).
• Curious about applying AI to real customer and business problems.
• Able to critically evaluate AI outputs instead of blindly accepting them.

• Familiarity with feature flags and mobile analytics.
• Unit and/or UI testing.
