- Permanent Role
Talentedge is working with an established, growing consumer-focused organisation that is continuing to invest in its digital platforms and customer experience. Technology plays a central role in the business, with its mobile application becoming an increasingly important part of how customers interact with the brand.
They are looking for an experienced Senior iOS Engineer to take ownership of their iOS application, driving its continued development and helping shape the future of the mobile experience.
This is a hands-on, senior individual contributor role offering significant autonomy and the opportunity to make a genuine impact. Rather than simply maintaining an existing application, you will be responsible for championing its development, introducing new features and identifying opportunities to improve performance, personalisation and customer engagement.
The Role
- Take end-to-end technical ownership of the iOS application, driving its ongoing development and improvement
- Design, develop and deliver new features using Swift and SwiftUI
- Champion the mobile application internally, proactively identifying opportunities to enhance functionality and user experience
- Develop features focused on personalisation, customer engagement and improving the overall user journey
- Implement and optimise in-app functionality, including push notifications and customer-facing features
- Work closely with Product, Data, Insights and Marketing teams to translate business requirements and customer insights into technical solutions
- Take ownership of technical decisions, ensuring the application remains scalable, reliable and high-performing
- Oversee mobile quality assurance, automated testing and release processes
- Integrate APIs and backend services to support seamless application functionality
- Use customer feedback and performance data to identify areas for improvement
- Contribute to the wider mobile technology roadmap and help shape the future direction of the application
- Drive best practices in iOS development, ensuring high standards of code quality, usability and performance
About You
- Strong commercial experience as a Senior iOS Engineer
- Excellent hands-on development skills using Swift and SwiftUI
- Proven experience building, developing and releasing consumer-facing iOS applications
- Experience taking ownership of an application or significant mobile features from development through to release
- Strong understanding of iOS architecture, mobile QA, testing and performance optimisation
- Experience integrating APIs and working with backend services
- A genuine product mindset, with an interest in understanding customer behaviour and improving the overall user experience
- Comfortable making independent technical decisions and taking ownership of projects
- Strong communication skills and experience collaborating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- A proactive, pragmatic and hands-on approach to problem-solving
- Comfortable working within a lean, collaborative engineering team
Experience with personalisation, push notifications, e-commerce applications or data-driven feature development would be highly advantageous. Familiarity with Shopify, commercetools, microservices or monitoring tools such as Datadog would also be beneficial.
Why Join?
This is an opportunity to take real ownership of a growing consumer-facing mobile application within a business that places significant importance on its digital experience.
You'll have the autonomy to influence technical decisions, shape new features and work closely with stakeholders across the business to deliver meaningful improvements to the customer experience. This role would suit someone who enjoys being hands-on, taking initiative and having a genuine influence over the direction of a product.
