Tilig is looking for a talented and ambitious Senior iOS Engineer who is passionate about developing a high-quality and scalable consumer software product. This individual will contribute to software quality, performance, and resilience through code reviews, test-driven development, continuous integration, and documentation.
In this role, you will take lead of Tilig’s iOS development team. You’ll be hands-on managing one iOS developer. This means you’ll be mentoring and conducting code reviews, but the bulk of your time will be spent developing! You’ll be given the freedom and trust to do your best work at Tilig.
Tilig is an app that balances seriousness with playfulness - we are an app designed for ease of use and delight in a more serious and dry industry (internet security). We are a simple free password manager built for small business and busy families. Tilig exists because the world needs it. We believe that a good, simple, free password manager is something that makes us as a society less vulnerable for hackers.
👀 We’re looking for:
- Strong grasp of Swift and Interface Builder
- Demonstrable experience with real-world iOS projects for the App Store or Enterprise distribution
- Knowledge of professional software engineering best practices for the software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, continuous integration, build processes, testing, and operations
- Ability to take a project from scoping requirements through launch
- An eagerness to learn new things and to help others do the same
- 2+ years professional experience with Mobile development in iOS with Swift and Objective-C
🤗 Who you are:
Engineering:
- You dream about Swift every night. You love the language, and know the ins and outs.
- You have hands-on experience with SwiftUI in bigger projects. You are aware of the quirks of SwiftUI and know how to work your way around it, if necessary. We’re not looking for somebody who has dabbled in it, we need someone who has actual experience with an app where SwiftUI was the framework of choice.
- You also have experience with UIKit. Because SwiftUI is (unfortunately) not yet the solution for everything.
- You have experience with async/await to clean up callback chains and simplify asynchronous tasks. You have a good understanding of threading on iOS.
- You have experience with Combine to handle reactive data.
- You have experience with CI/CD tools for iOS, such as Fastlane and/or Bitrise.
- You have experience with using cryptographic protocols, such as (a)symmetric encryption and signing
- You have a good understanding of security principles and security and robustness are important to you
Management:
- You have experience doing code reviews, and can express your critique in a constructive manner that fit asynchronous (remote) work environments
- You have experience mentoring other, more junior, developers, or have the willingness/ambition to develop your skills in this area
- You have experience coordinating/scheduling work with the product team
Bonus points if you have affinity with the rest of our (client) stack:
- macOS (AppKit) development
- Kotlin development
- Rails development
- VueJS development
