Senior iOS Engineer (Reverse Engineering and JailBreak experience required ) Offline
Applefy - a high-quality Mobile and Web Development company, is looking for a talented Engineer to join our dynamic team on an ongoing project.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a developer passionate about building high-quality mobile applications and wanting to grow their skills in a flexible and supportive environment.
What We Offer:
• Flexible work schedule: Manage your own time and work at your own pace.
• Fully remote: Work from anywhere in the world.
• Comprehensive leave policy: Enjoy all official holidays, 20 days of paid vacation, and 10 sick days without needing a doctor’s note.
We are looking for an Senior iOS developer specialized in reverse engineering and tweak development (Theos/Logos) to create a custom bypass for a highly aggressive anti-jailbreak detection system (Tinder/Hinge) on iOS 16 (Palera1n rootless).
The goal is to allow the application to run smoothly while the device is jailbroken, specifically overcoming "Environment Checks" and "Anti-Hooking" mechanisms that current public tools (Choicy, Shadow, vnodebypass) fail to bypass.
Technical Challenges:
The target application uses sophisticated detection methods, including:
* Integrity Checks: Detecting the presence of the Palera1n loader and /var/jb file structure.
* Dylib/Injection Detection: Scanning for loaded libraries (Ellekit/Substrate).
* Sandbox/Container Monitoring: Detecting data redirection (similar to Crane/Slice).
* Third-party Security SDKs: Likely FaceTec or similar biometric/security frameworks that perform low-level system calls (syscalls). Responsibilities:
* Analyze the application's binary to identify specific detection triggers (using IDA Pro, Hopper, or Ghidra).
* Develop a custom Tweak (Rootless architecture) to hook and spoof the detection methods.
* Ensure compatibility with the iPhone 8/X (A11) hardware running iOS 16.7.x.
* Implement a "Kernel-level" hiding strategy if user-land hooks are insufficient. Requirements:
* Proven experience in iOS Reverse Engineering and Mobile App Security.
* Mastery of Objective-C, C++, and the Theos development suite.
* Deep understanding of iOS internals (dyld, syscalls, sandbox, mach_star).
* Experience bypassing commercial protectors (like Arxan, Promon, or similar).
* Ability to deliver a clean, stable .deb file and documentation on how the bypass functions.
Preferred Skills:
- Previous experience with dating app security or banking app bypasses.
- Knowledge of TrollStore integration and its interaction with jailbroken environments.
- Familiarity with A11 (Checkm8) specific detection vectors
- A desire to learn and grow professionally
- At least two years of experience in product development
- Residency in Ukraine 🇺🇦
- Experience with App Clip
If you’re ready to take the next step in your career with Applefy, we’d love to hear from you!
