• Own technical decision-making for iOS platforms, frameworks, SDK design, and third-party integrations.
• Ensure high performance, memory efficiency, security, and reliability across all iOS deliverables.

Development and Delivery:

• Build modern, scalable user interfaces using SwiftUI and UIKit, following Apple Human Interface Guidelines.
• Develop modular, reusable SDKs that can be consumed across multiple iOS applications.
• Integrate RESTful APIs, third-party libraries, and internal frameworks.
• Manage dependencies using CocoaPods and Swift Package Manager (SPM).
• Write and enforce comprehensive unit tests and UI tests using XCTest and XCUITest.
• Drive CI/CD adoption for iOS applications and SDKs, ensuring reliable build and release pipelines.
• Actively contribute hands-on code for critical features and complex technical components.

Team Leadership and Mentorship:

• Lead, mentor, and coach junior and mid-level iOS developers.
• Conduct code reviews and provide constructive feedback to improve code quality and engineering maturity.
• Support hiring and technical interviews for iOS roles.
• Foster a culture of quality, accountability, continuous improvement, and technical excellence.

Collaboration and Stakeholder Management:

• Partner with product managers, designers, QA, and backend teams to define requirements, estimates, and delivery timelines.
• Translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions.
• Communicate technical trade-offs, risks, and progress clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Take ownership of deliverables and ensure timely, high-quality releases in a fast-paced environment.

Requirements:

• 2-6 years of experience in iOS application development, with at least 2-4 years in a senior or lead role.
• Expert-level proficiency in Swift and deep understanding of iOS SDKs.
• Strong hands-on experience with SwiftUI and UIKit for building production-grade user interfaces.
• Proven experience in iOS SDK / framework development and maintaining reusable components.
• Strong expertise in MVVM, clean architecture, and modern iOS design patterns.
• Extensive experience writing unit tests and UI tests using XCTest and XCUITest.
• Experience with CocoaPods and Swift Package Manager (SPM) for dependency management.
• Solid understanding of multithreading, memory management (ARC), and performance optimization.
• Proven experience integrating RESTful APIs and applying networking best practices.
• Hands-on experience setting up or managing CI/CD pipelines for iOS applications.
• Proficiency with Git, Xcode, and iOS debugging and profiling tools (Instruments, LLDB).
• Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
• Experience working in service-based or client-driven organizations with multiple stakeholders.

Nice to Have:

• Experience publishing and maintaining SDKs or internal frameworks used across multiple products or teams.
• Experience leading end-to-end delivery of large-scale iOS applications.
• Exposure to cross-platform architectures or shared business-logic layers.
• Experience with mobile security, data encryption, and secure API integration.
• Prior experience building or scaling an iOS team from the ground up.
