The Activity Apps team builds and operates Nike Run Club (NRC) and Nike Training Club (NTC) - the mobile experiences that move millions of Nike athletes through runs, workouts, training plans, and guided coaching every day. As a Software Engineer 2 on iOS, you'll be a growing IC on a feature squad, partnering daily with senior iOS engineers, Android peers, backend engineers, Product, Design, and QA. This role reports to an Engineering Manager for Activity Apps and works alongside Principal and Lead engineers who will invest in your growth.
Nike is seeking a Software Engineer 2 on iOS who has shipped in a real consumer app, is comfortable in modern iOS, and is ready to grow into more complex ownership. You'll take on well-scoped features and pieces of larger initiatives, write clean and testable Swift, and lean into the mentorship the team offers. The ideal candidate cares about craft, moves fast without cutting corners, and is curious about how the app actually behaves in an athlete's hand.
• 2+ years of professional iOS development experience shipping consumer-facing apps
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field; will accept any suitable combination of education, experience and training
• Proficiency in Swift and SwiftUI (and comfort with UIKit where it still lives); working knowledge of modern concurrency (async/await, Combine)
• Understanding of iOS architecture patterns (MVVM, MVI, Composable/TCA) and how features are structured in a modularized codebase (SPM, frameworks)
• Familiarity with the iOS frameworks activity apps rely on - Core Location, Core Motion, background modes, AVFoundation / audio, push - and willingness to go deep in the areas you own
• Comfort consuming REST/GraphQL APIs and handling offline, low-bandwidth, and error states gracefully
• Experience writing unit and UI tests (XCTest, snapshot testing, XCUITest)
• Familiarity with Xcode, Fastlane, CI/CD, and the App Store release process
• Strong debugging habits and an interest in growing them - Instruments profiling, memory analysis, crash triage
• Collaborative mindset; clear communicator in code review, design discussion, and written docs
• Experience with Spec Driven Development leveraging LLM coding agents and autonomous build and review loops
You'll build features in NRC or NTC on iOS alongside more senior engineers who will help you take on progressively more complex work. Your code will run in the hands of millions of athletes.
• Implement features in the NRC or NTC iOS app - from spec through shipped release with guidance from senior engineers on the squad
• Own the iOS side of well-scoped feature work and contribute pieces of larger, cross-platform initiatives
• Write clean, testable, idiomatic Swift and uphold the team's quality bar in code review
• Contribute to the workout session stack on iOS and adjacent surfaces (sensors, background execution, storage, upload) as you build depth in this area
• Instrument features for observability and experimentation; learn from production behavior and iterate
• Participate in on-call rotation for app stability; help triage crashes and consumer-reported issues on iOS
• Learn and adopt iOS best practices and platform updates that improve the athlete experience
• Adopt AI-native development practices on the iOS team - internal AI tooling, code assistance, evaluation harnesses - and share what's working
• Position based at worldwide campus headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon
• 4/1 hybrid schedule - Mondays-Thursdays in office, Fridays optional (campus or home)
• Accommodations for interview process including screen readers, sign language interpreters, accessible locations, closed captioning, and other reasonable modifications
• Candidate Accommodation Request Form available for disability assistance
