- Actively contribute hands-on code for critical features and complex technical components.

Team Leadership & Mentorship :

- Lead, mentor, and coach junior and mid-level iOS developers.

- Conduct code reviews and provide constructive feedback to improve code quality and engineering maturity.

- Support hiring and technical interviews for iOS roles.

- Foster a culture of quality, accountability, continuous improvement, and technical excellence.

Collaboration & Stakeholder Management :

- Partner with product managers, designers, QA, and backend teams to define requirements, estimates, and delivery timelines.

- Translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.

- Communicate technical trade-offs, risks, and progress clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

- Take ownership of deliverables and ensure timely, high-quality releases in a fast-paced environment.

Required Skills & Experience :

- 4+ years of experience in iOS application development, with at least 2 - 4 years in a senior or lead role.

- Expert-level proficiency in Swift and deep understanding of iOS SDKs.

- Strong hands-on experience with SwiftUI and UIKit for building production-grade user interfaces.

- Proven experience in iOS SDK / framework development and maintaining reusable components.

- Strong expertise in MVVM, Clean Architecture, and modern iOS design patterns.

- Extensive experience writing unit tests and UI tests using XCTest and XCUITest.

- Experience with CocoaPods and Swift Package Manager (SPM) for dependency management.

- Solid understanding of multithreading, memory management (ARC), and performance optimization.

- Proven experience integrating RESTful APIs and applying networking best practices.

- Hands-on experience setting up or managing CI/CD pipelines for iOS applications.

- Proficiency with Git, Xcode, and iOS debugging and profiling tools (Instruments, LLDB).

- Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

- Experience working in service-based or client-driven organizations with multiple stakeholders.

Nice to Have :

- Experience publishing and maintaining SDKs or internal frameworks used across multiple products or teams.

- Experience leading end-to-end delivery of large-scale iOS applications.

- Exposure to cross-platform architectures or shared business-logic layers.

- Experience with mobile security, data encryption, and secure API integration.

- Prior experience building or scaling an iOS team from the ground up.

What We Offer :

- High-ownership leadership role in shaping the iOS platform and SDK ecosystem.

- Opportunity to build scalable mobile products and reusable SDK platforms.

- Strong influence on architecture, tooling, and engineering best practices.

- Collaborative and growth-oriented engineering culture.

- Competitive compensation and leadership growth opportunities.
