iOS Software Engineer
Job Description
There are over 5 billion users using basic applications today such email, notes, tasks that are not AI-native. Our client's mission is to build a proactive smart assistant for everyday users to bring intelligence to conversations, errands, organising and workflows, with minimal prompting. Their product focuses on achieving high reliability for long-running workflows, persistent context, and real-world task completion. The system must handle multi-step reasoning, interact with external tools, and remain reliable despite non-deterministic model behavior. Overview As an iOS Software Engineer, you own the iOS client experience, how AI feels, responds, and performs in users’ hands. This is not a thin integration role. You will build a production-grade iOS application where AI interactions are central to product experience, and performance, reliability, and user trust are critical. Focus
- Build and maintain iOS applications using Swift and SwiftUI.
- Integrate AI-powered features through backend APIs.
- Design UX patterns for AI interactions, including loading states, streaming responses, retries, and fallbacks.
- Optimize performance, memory usage, and battery efficiency.
- Capture user signals and feedback to support AI evaluation and iteration.
- Collaborate closely with backend and ML engineers on API design and system behavior.
- Maintain high App Store quality, stability, and production reliability.
Ideal Experiences
- 3+ years of iOS development experience using Swift.
- Hands-on experience integrating AI-powered features into mobile apps.
- Strong understanding of async/await, concurrency, and background tasks.
- Solid iOS performance and memory optimization skills.
- Experience shipping and maintaining production iOS apps.
- Comfort designing for latency, partial failure, and non-deterministic AI behavior.
- Exposure to CoreML or light on-device ML.
- Familiarity with feature flags or remote configuration systems.
- Strong intuition for AI UX patterns and user trust considerations.
Outcomes
