Job Title: iOS Systems & Full-Stack Engineer
Role Overview
We are looking for a highly skilled iOS Engineer who lives and breathes the Apple ecosystem
but isn't afraid to dive into the server-side. You won't just be building apps; you will be navigating
the internals of iOS, and building the APIs that power these interactions. This role is perfect for
a developer who enjoys how things work under the hood—from XCTest and
mobile-subsystems to scalable backend services in Python or Go.
Key Responsibilities
● Backend API Development (50-60%): During key infrastructure sprints, you will focus
heavily on building, scaling, and maintaining the Python or Go services.
● iOS Core Development (40-50%): Design and maintain complex iOS applications and
frameworks using Swift and Objective-C.
● System-Level Engineering: Deep dive into iOS internals (processes, security, and
automation frameworks) to support custom hardware or software integrations.
● Backend Integration: Develop, test, and maintain robust, scalable APIs in Python
(FastAPI/Flask) or Go to support mobile features and data synchronization.
● Ecosystem Troubleshooting: Provide high-level technical support for the entire Apple
stack, including code-signing, provisioning, MDM (Mobile Device Management), and
CI/CD pipelines.
● Collaboration: Work closely with infrastructure teams to ensure mobile devices are
correctly isolated and containerized within our broader service environment.
Required Technical Skills
1. The iOS Power User
● Expertise in Swift and a strong working knowledge of Objective-C.
● Deep understanding of iOS Internals: Process management, keychain, background
tasks, and system performance tuning.
● Experience with XCUITest and mobile automation tools (e.g., Maestro, Appium, or
custom XCTest runners).
● Mastery of the Apple Deployment cycle: Certificates, Provisioning Profiles, App Store
Connect, and TestFlight.
2. The API / Backend Hybrid
● Proficiency in either Python or Go.
● Experience designing RESTful or gRPC APIs.
● Knowledge of Docker and containerization strategies for isolating service environments.
● Understanding of networking protocols (WebSockets, HTTP/2, SSH tunneling).
● Good understanding of Design patterns and Data Structures and Algorithms.
Required Experience :
• Minimum 4 years of software development experience in IOS development and backend
technologies.
Required Education
• Four year Bachelor's degree in computer science or Information Technology.
Location
• India (remote)
Soft Skills & Mindset
● Support-Oriented: Willingness to provide on-call or deep-dive technical support when
Apple ecosystem updates break existing workflows.
● Architecture First: Ability to write Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) to justify tech
stack choices.
● Security-Conscious: An instinctive understanding of why we isolate
device-manipulation scripts in Docker for security.
Bonus Points
● Knowledge of macOS Virtualization (Tart, Anka, or Apple Virtualization Framework).
● Contributions to open-source mobile tooling.
