Job Description

We’re not looking for someone who just knows how to build screens. We’re looking for an engineer who understands why things work the way they do -- someone who can reason about performance, architecture, and the nuances of Apple’s frameworks like a true craftsman.

 

What You’ll Do

• Architect and build robust, scalable iOS applications using Swift and SwiftUI

• Write clean, testable, maintainable code with a strong emphasis on performance and reliability

• Dive deep into Apple APIs -- from LocalAuthentication to CommonCrypto -- and use them to solve real-world problems elegantly

• Optimize performance using profiling tools, concurrency strategies, and thoughtful design

• Mentor other developers and help shape the technical culture of our Calgary office

• Use AI tools to accelerate development, not replace it, freeing up time for deeper thinking and more impactful work

 

What We’re Looking For

• Strong CS fundamentals: You understand memory management, data structures, algorithms, and concurrency, and you know when to apply them

• Deep iOS expertise: You’ve built and shipped complex apps, and you know the ins and outs of UIKit, SwiftUI, and the broader Apple ecosystem

• Architectural thinking: You can design modular, testable systems and have opinions about MVC, MVVM, and beyond

• Curiosity and craftsmanship: You care about how things are built, not just what gets built

• Ecosystem fluency: You’ve worked with CI/CD, app signing, provisioning, Instruments, and understand the full lifecycle of an iOS app

• Clear communicator: You can walk through your own code and explain your decisions. You’re comfortable saying “I don’t know” and having a relaxed, technical conversation

• Collaborative mindset: You’re thoughtful, curious, and easy to work with -- we try to keep it not so fussy

• AI maturity: You use AI tools to enhance your workflow -- not to substitute for foundational knowledge

 

How We Interview

In our phone screen, you’ll walk us through three examples from your own code:

• Swift Language: We’re looking for depth -- concurrency, generics, protocol design -- not just syntax

• Apple APIs & Frameworks: Show us how you’ve used UIKit, SwiftUI, or lesser-known frameworks like AuthenticationServices or WebKit

• Apple Ecosystem: Talk about your experience with CI/CD, Xcode, performance tuning, app signing, crash analysis, or architecture decisions

 

We’re not looking for perfection -- we’re looking for engineers who think deeply, communicate clearly, and care about the craft of iOS development.

The candidate must work on-site, a minimum of 3 days a week. 

 

Additional Required Skills:

• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.

• BA/BS in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience. 

Additional Desired Skills

• Experience developing APIs.

• Awareness of Android app development.

• Strong user experience skills.
