We are ambitious. Over 340,000 people already use our platforms. We’re global with offices in 18 countries and products in 16 regions. We’re hungry to move faster, ship better product for our customers and grow our user base.

We work in cross-functional teams and are laser focused on increasing the number of active clients we serve to drive sustainable growth.

What you’ll do

• Design, develop, and maintain high-quality iOS applications.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including product managers, designers, and other engineers, to deliver seamless user experiences.

• Drive technical innovation and continuously improve the codebase. 

• Mentor and support less experienced team members, fostering a collaborative and learning-oriented environment.

• Open to work with cross-platform solutions to enhance code sharing and maintainability (the team considers such option).

• Excellent problem-solving skills and a quality-oriented mindset. 

• Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a team environment.
