Role Overview

We seek passionate iOS engineers to craft the native iOS application experience for KIRA's AI-enabled financial agent. This role demands a commitment to crafting seamless user flows, swift performance, and robust mobile features used by real customers.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and deliver native iOS modules for onboarding, account management, cards, payments, transfers, rewards, and AI-driven user experiences.
• Simplify complex financial processes into fast, intuitive mobile interactions.
• Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, backend, and AI engineers to transform ideas from prototypes to production-ready releases.
• Ensure high app quality through monitoring performance metrics, crash rates, loading behaviors, edge case handling, responsiveness, and stable releases.
• Leverage user feedback, analytics, and behavioral data post-launch to continuously enhance features.
• Implement APIs, authentication methods, secure data protocols, and financial workflows with strict reliability and security standards.

Candidate Qualifications

• Proven expertise in native iOS development using Swift.
• Track record of releasing iOS applications enjoyed by active users.
• Solid command over SwiftUI, UIKit, asynchronous programming (async/await), and architectural best practices on iOS.
• Strong product intuition with a focus on user experience, beyond building simple interfaces.
• Capability to troubleshoot production bugs and optimize app performance, stability, and reliability.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity and progressing swiftly in a startup-like environment without sacrificing quality.

Expectations and Exclusions

• We value engineers with significant technical achievements involving direct contributions to building, shipping, or scaling impactful products or platforms.
• This position is unsuitable for those preferring strictly defined development tasks, neglecting user experience, disregarding app stability (crashes, edge cases), or those who work slowly in fast-paced settings.
• Applicants should be honest and precise about their actual contributions.
