Job Description

Insight Global is seeking a senior iOS developer to join a Toronto-based tech agency. You use modern tools and frameworks but can code up a web app from scratch using only HTML5, CSS3 and vanilla JS (you probably wont have to but you could do it to prove the point). You are a team player who can fly solo when needed. Although you have the full support of your team mates, you are able to lead the research and solution of complex problems. At the same time, you know when to ask for help and dont let pride or ego get in the way, because after all, you are part of a team. This role will directly support our client Audi North America and have the opportunity to shape the development of their digital platform.

Initiative is your middle name and you dont give us a chance to chase you. We are on the hunt for people who have an innovative mindset (you still dream of that moonshot project, but are currently working on your side-gig)! Is this you?

You will be spearheading building modern, responsive solutions for a premium brand that values user experience as a priority. You will accomplish this by:

Responsibilities

Designing and Building Apps: This involves translating design ideas and user needs into fully functional iOS applications.

Writing Code: Using programming languages like Swift or Objective-C to create the app's logic, features, and user interface.

Working with iOS Frameworks and APIs: Utilizing Apple's frameworks and APIs (like UIKit, Core Data, and Core Animation) to access device features and build rich functionalities.

Creating Intuitive and Engaging Interfaces: Designing user interfaces that are both visually appealing and easy to navigate, adhering to Apple's Human Interface Guidelines.

Implementing App Navigation: Developing clear and seamless navigation flows within the app.

Optimizing for Different Screen Sizes: Ensuring the app looks and functions correctly on various iOS devices, including iPhones, iPads, and even Apple Watch.

Testing App Functionality: Conducting rigorous testing to identify and fix bugs, errors, and performance bottlenecks.

Debugging Code: Using debugging tools (like Xcode) to identify and resolve issues in the app's code.

Unit and UI Testing: Writing unit tests to ensure individual components work correctly and UI tests to verify the user interface behaves as expected.

Working with Designers: Collaborating with UI/UX designers to ensure the app's design aligns with user needs and Apple's design principles.

Working with Back-End Developers: Integrating the app with back-end systems and APIs to access data and services.

Working with QA Testers: Working with quality assurance testers to ensure the app meets quality standards and functions flawlessly.

Following iOS Best Practices: Staying current with the latest iOS development best practices, guidelines, and updates from Apple.

Learning New Technologies: Continuously learning about new iOS features, frameworks, and technologies to enhance app development skills.
