iOS Software Engineer

About the company

Our client is a fast-growing technology company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Act as a hands-on mobile engineer responsible for a consumer iOS app across its whole life, from early concept to App Store release. Partner daily with company leadership and cross-functional colleagues to deliver refined features, guide technical direction and set a high quality bar.

What you'll do

- Design, build and launch native iOS features in Swift, taking each one from first idea to release.

- Shape the app's technical structure so it holds up as more engineers join.

- Create smooth, visually refined screens and interactions.

- Investigate live-app defects and tune stability and speed.

- Introduce coding conventions and review habits for the mobile group.

- Propose improvements, run experiments and iterate quickly instead of waiting for detailed specifications.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- Roughly 1 to 5 or more years building iOS apps commercially, with Swift as your main language.

- Experience launching a mobile app from scratch using MVVM or a comparable design pattern.

- Working knowledge of the iOS platform, app design principles and consuming REST services.

- Comfort managing asynchronous data flows.

- History of making meaningful contributions to a widely used product, ideally on mobile.

- Strong sense of ownership and ease with ambiguity in a startup setting.

- Good product judgment and a keen eye for interface detail.

- Practical experience using AI tools and agent-based workflows in day-to-day development.

- Living in New York City or ready to relocate there.

Bonus points

- Exposure to a gamified consumer app or a marketplace business.

- Time spent at a startup or design-focused company known for polished mobile products.
