The Role

We are looking for a Senior iOS Engineer with native iOS development experience to join the Mobile team responsible for this digital product. On the team, you’ll work on every aspect of the customer journey – from getting users into the app, giving them the best, stage-based developmental information tailored to their child, helping them get specific questions answered by child development experts, and helping them learn how to play and get more value out of our toys. You’ll own the client-side app architecture and build best-in-class beautiful and flexible UI, content management, account and subscription management, digital payments, tools for our developmental experts and more. You will do it all with a platform focus in mind - scaling our global audience to millions of customers and continuously looking for opportunities to enhance our technology, increase velocity and maintain a high quality bar. This is a front-end role that covers architectural vision to implementation.

Responsibilities

• Design and deliver new product and platform features, optimize existing features, own the frameworks and systems needed to deliver the product vision, roadmap, and strategy.
• Work closely with a product team consisting of a Product Manager, UX Designer, and other developers.
• Define and establish development best practices and patterns, staying up to date with the latest Native Mobile Frameworks.
• Write code considering security, testability, maintainability, scalability, and performance.
• Mentor and pair with mid-level and junior software engineers in order to develop their skills and understanding of the code, programming languages, and frameworks employed within the Lovevery platform.

Attributes required for success in the role

• Have an Intrinsic Humble Hustle - You are a go-getter who makes things happen.
• Experienced and Able to Learn Quickly - You have deep expertise in building, deploying, monitoring and scaling systems. You can quickly architect and build elegant user-facing features and systems. While you love learning new technologies, this is not an area where you need to ramp up.
• Strong Collaborator and Communicator - You’ll enjoy working in a world-class cross-functional team where strong communication and collaboration are a key part of your success.
• Have a Full-Stack View with a Love for Creating Beautiful UI - You will be working on a solution that extends from the back-end and the data model to the UI. You’ll deliver user stories and features and non-functional requirements such as scalability, performance, security, and testability.
• Have a Quality-Focus - You will be a champion for building quality code and are willing to write the test before the code.
• Pragmatism – You will be building new digital products in this role, and you will also be rebuilding e-commerce platforms and stitching together solutions to create the best experience in the most pragmatic way.
