Senior iOS Developer (Swift, iMessage / App Extensions)
Senior iOS Developer (Swift, iMessage / App Extensions)
We are hiring a Senior iOS Developer for a product build involving iMessage app functionality and extension-based architecture.
This role requires a developer who is genuinely senior — someone who can work confidently within Apple platform constraints, make pragmatic architectural decisions, and deliver a stable product without excessive hand-holding.
Must-Have Requirements
• Strong commercial experience with Swift and native iOS development
• Proven experience shipping production iOS apps
• Strong understanding of app architecture, persistence, lifecycle, and platform limitations
• Ability to work independently on ambiguous product problems
• Experience making sound engineering trade-offs without overcomplicating the solution
Big Advantage
• Experience with Messages framework, iMessage apps, or App Extensions
• Experience with Core Data / SQLite
• Experience with local-first product logic
• Experience working on products where privacy/API restrictions directly shape the UX
We Are Not Looking For
• Junior/Mid-level developers who still need technical direction on architecture
• Candidates whose experience is mostly limited to standard UIKit/SwiftUI screens with basic APIs
• Developers who rely heavily on backend-heavy patterns for solving mobile-first problems
• People who struggle to reason through Apple framework limitations independently
Role Focus
You will own implementation of a native iOS product with non-standard platform constraints, including:
• conversation-scoped logic
• local storage
• insertion/retrieval flows
• app/extension lifecycle behavior
• edge-case handling
• release readiness
