What We’re Looking For
• Strong CS fundamentals: You understand memory management, data structures, algorithms, and concurrency — and you know when to apply them
• Deep iOS expertise: You’ve built and shipped complex apps, and you know the ins and outs of UIKit, SwiftUI, and the broader Apple ecosystem
• Architectural thinking: You can design modular, testable systems and have opinions about MVC, MVVM, and beyond
• Curiosity and craftsmanship: You care about how things are built, not just what gets built
• Ecosystem fluency: You’ve worked with CI/CD, app signing, provisioning, Instruments, and understand the full lifecycle of an iOS app
• Clear communicator: You can walk through your own code and explain your decisions. You’re comfortable saying “I don’t know” and having a relaxed, technical conversation
• Collaborative mindset: You’re thoughtful, curious, and easy to work with — we try to keep it not so fussy
• AI maturity: You use AI tools to enhance your workflow — not to substitute for foundational knowledge
How We Interview
In our phone screen, you’ll walk us through three examples from your own code:
• Swift Language: We’re looking for depth — concurrency, generics, protocol design — not just syntax
• Apple APIs & Frameworks: Show us how you’ve used UIKit, SwiftUI, or lesser-known frameworks like AuthenticationServices or WebKit
• Apple Ecosystem: Talk about your experience with CI/CD, Xcode, performance tuning, app signing, crash analysis, or architecture decisions
