About This Role
This iOS Developer role focuses on building a high-performance, responsive native iOS application from the ground up, translating existing web features into a fluid Swift application. The role suits an experienced developer who can lead architectural design and ensure quality code architecture.
Responsibilities
- Lead the architectural design and implementation of the iOS app, translating existing web features into high-performance, fluid, and native Swift applications
- Collaborate with UI/UX designers to implement complex custom controls, custom transitions, and micro-interactions, ensuring dynamic rendering aligns with Apple's Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) performance metrics
- Integrate and optimize near-real-time data update mechanisms (e.g., polling, SSE, or lightweight streams)
- Design efficient data caching and throttling/debouncing mechanisms to minimize CPU and power consumption
- Manage the end-to-end global release process on the App Store (targeting markets including Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, China, Hong Kong, India, and the United States), handling region-specific privacy compliance and localization requirements
- Establish and maintain automated build, test, and deployment workflows (e.g., via Fastlane and GitHub Actions) to support a reliable and agile shipping cadence
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional iOS development experience, with a proven track record of architecting, building, and successfully shipping at least one major application from scratch
- Deep understanding of Swift language features, memory management, and Core Animation
- Advanced proficiency in concurrent programming (GCD, Modern Swift Concurrency) to ensure data processing never blocks the main UI thread
- Solid experience working with RESTful APIs and near-real-time data rendering, with a strong grasp of data caching and stream control to keep UI updates orderly
- Hands-on experience navigating cross-border App Store review guidelines, particularly handling complex compliance obstacles (e.g., privacy mandates, 2FA requirements, or region-specific verification documentation in markets like China or India)
- High proficiency with Fastlane (including Fastlane match for certificate synchronization and utilizing App Store Connect API Keys to bypass 2FA prompts on headless CI/CD runners)
Benefits
- Paid annual leave
- Medical group insurance
- Monthly gym subsidy
