Role: Senior iOS Engineer

Location: Fully remote - UK or Europe

A high-growth, award-winning SaaS EdTech start-up is looking for a Senior iOS Engineer to join the team. If you're a developer who wants real product ownership, a tight-knit team, and the chance to shape an entire app, this is for you.

Benefits include:

• Unlimited holiday – most of the team takes 32–35 days, plus office closes for around 2 weeks over Christmas
• Remote-friendly – flexible hours and location
• MacBook and AirPods – top-tier equipment for remote work
• Private healthcare – available to all UK-based staff
• Collaborative culture – founder, engineers, and designers work side by side
• Equity & recognition – share scheme available, results rewarded

They are already a market leader with 21M+ annual page views, a #1-rated app, and 1 in 4 UK students using their platform. They aim to double that growth, and your work will directly influence this expansion.

Responsibilities:

This hands-on iOS role involves implementing designs for a seamless university search experience, collaborating with back-end and design teams, and taking ownership of the app's future.

You will write clean, scalable Swift/SwiftUI code, shape the architecture, and lay foundations for a growing mobile team. This role is ideal for stepping into a lead-track position without corporate layers.

Requirements:

• 3+ years of commercial iOS experience (Swift/SwiftUI)
• Experience building scalable apps with good performance and UX
• Strong understanding of OOP, functional programming, and modern design patterns
• Confidence working with REST APIs and GraphQL
• Proactive mindset and ability to work independently
• Focus on product quality, not just feature shipping

This is a great opportunity to join a product-led, fast-moving team where your input shapes the roadmap and mobile development.
