Join Handshake, powering 25 million job seekers, 1 million+ employers, and 1,600 educational institutions. Nearly one million students use the iOS app weekly to discover jobs, connect with employers, and attend career events. You'd join a small iOS team of four senior engineers as the first Engineer I — with ownership from concept to App Store launch, and deep mentorship from every engineer around you.
• Own features end to end, from product and design conversations through building, testing, launch, and iterating on real usage data
• Build in Swift and SwiftUI (with UIKit where it lives today) inside an MVVM + Coordinator architecture
• Write view models, wire up GraphQL/REST services, and ship UI on internal design system
• Ship every week: feature flags, staged rollouts, and thorough code review from senior engineers on every PR
• Work on high-visibility consumer surfaces like jobs discovery, career events, student profiles
• Help build AI-powered experiences and use AI tools daily
• Write unit tests for view models, contribute to acceptance test coverage
• Shipped real iOS software to real users — live App Store app, production features during internship/job, substantial public iOS project, or TestFlight app with actual users
• 1-3 years of building iOS apps, professionally or independently
• Own your code — can explain structure, where it breaks, what you'd redo
• Understand every line you ship (even with AI tools)
• Know modern iOS fundamentals: Swift, view models and MVVM (or similar patterns), networking, asynchronous code
• Take initiative — started something yourself, iterated on user feedback, or pushed a project further than asked
• Communicate clearly in PRs, design discussions, and when stuck
• Consumer app experience: built for end users at scale rather than internal or B2B tools
• Experience with both SwiftUI and UIKit, and moving between them
• Familiarity with GraphQL, unit/UI testing (XCTest or similar), or CI/CD tooling like Fastlane
• Personal app currently live in the App Store
• Experience using analytics, experimentation (A/B testing), or user feedback to decide what to build next
• Equity in fast-growing company

Are you tired of Ruby and Fastlane installation issues? There's got to be a better way! Discover Codemagic open source CLI tools. It is not a drop-in replacement for all of what Fastlane does (screenshots for example), but we use it at Codemagic to build and publish iOS and Android apps, also versioning and device provisioning.
