Senior iOS Developer (offline)

About the customer
Founded in 2013, our client is a hugely popular, cutting-edge online streaming television company from California. This free broadcasting service provides millions of viewers with more than 100 exclusive live and original channels that users won’t find on local TV. The content is full of TV shows of all kinds, premium news, on-demand movies, cartoons, viral videos, sports, lifestyle and trending digital series. In a nutshell, there is literally everything you’d like to see on your screen – hand-picked by people who know and love the entertainment industry.

More so, they offer a free app that runs seamlessly on multiple mobile, web and various connected TV streaming devices. Well-known online giants The Verge, Venture Beat, and Vibe declared our customer as ‘awesome’. So, we can say for sure that our client is redefining the future of television.

About the project
One of the hottest startups in California is led by a team of highly-skilled and passionate entrepreneurs, alongside with the TV and technology executives. There is nothing but the high energy culture and the top-notch development team. Only the best of the best in the industry work for the platform’s owners. The project has investors from US Venture Partners, Chicago Ventures, Universal Music Group, and more. Millions of users across multiple platforms interact with their apps daily.

Famous magazines like NY Times, Forbes, TechCrunch, Variety, USA Today, CNN and Mashable never miss the opportunity to write about one of the leading video streaming platforms in the industry. As of right now, the goal of the project is to transform the future of television by building the largest online TV service in the world, while continuing to stay free.

About the team
We are looking for no less than a new star to shine brightly in our innovative, friendly and open-minded team dedicated to bringing the entertainment to a higher level. Every team member is passionate about the project and committed to a common goal. You’ll be led by some of the best media and technology entrepreneurs. For instance, the Executive Chairman was the Chief Content Officer of Spotify, and the principal architect built the first Roku for Netflix.

It’s a world-class startup team that runs many experiments and solves real problems – you can be sure of that. Here no successful products are built without thorough tests. The development process is lean, agile, organic, non-GMO, all that stuff. You’d be not just an engineer but an entrepreneur with autonomy when it comes to the problem-solving process.

Responsibilities
Your primary focus, as a Senior iOS Developer, will be on developing and decision making. You also will communicate with the rest of the team (US and Ukraine) working on creating the new functionality and maintaining an existing one. Therefore, a commitment to collaborative problem solving, sophisticated design, and a quality product are important.

✔Discuss business and technical/architectural solutions
✔Build new features together with the client according to business requirements
✔Build infrastructure for the new project from scratch, implement changes to the existing projects
✔Translate complex functional, technical and business requirements into architectural designs
✔Communicate with the customer

We’re looking for a world-class Senior engineer with strong computer science fundamentals, that can quickly pick up new technologies, that have a true passion for working on a fast-growing, consumer-facing product, that reaches millions of users. We don’t want engineers who just write great code, we want engineers that own and stand behind what they build. We won’t tell you how to solve the problem, we’ll give you clear goals and objectives, and you’ll work with our team to test, iterate, architect, build, and deploy solutions that directly impact our KPIs. We’re looking for someone that is passionate about what they do, eager to disrupt a massive market and isn’t just looking for another ‘job’.

Development language: Swift 4.0

Requirements:

✔Solid programming skills, confident knowledge of design patterns, language-specific best practices
✔Experience developing consumer-grade mobile apps for iOS
✔CI/CD experience
✔Excellent knowledge of GIT
✔Ability to participate in the implementation of any task from the backlog
✔Understanding of common principles and modern trends in iOS development
✔Development experience for phones, tablets, AppleTV

Nice to Have Skills:
Experience with the components of our technology stack (HLS, AVFoundation, Javascript, AWS, HTML5)
