The Opportunity

We are looking for a Senior iOS Engineer to join our Core Experience team.

What You'll Do

• Build scalable iOS features tailored for youth safety, parental trust, and family engagement.
• Architect and maintain shared, backward-compatible UI frameworks and navigation systems.
• Adopt an agentic-first development workflow (using tools like Cursor and Claude) to accelerate delivery and prototyping.
• Translate complex regulatory, privacy, and safety mandates into clean, reliable technical implementations.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional partners across product, legal, policy, and design.

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years of professional iOS development experience with modern Swift and Cocoa design patterns.
• Agentic workflow adoption: Hands‑on experience integrating tools like Cursor and Claude into daily engineering.
• Platform & API design: Proven track record building shared components with a focus on backward compatibility and client-server integration.
• Collaborative leadership: Strong cross-functional communication and a team-over-self mentality.
• Bonus: Prior exposure to C++ or Android development.
