ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
Join a fast-growing EdTech startup helping more than 1.5 million students worldwide learn better and stay motivated through an AI-powered education platform. With tens of thousands of new students joining every week and recent seed funding, the team is expanding its mobile experience.
As a Senior iOS Engineer, you will take hands-on ownership of the iOS app, work directly with the founders and help shape a product used by students every day. This opportunity suits someone who enjoys autonomy, meaningful technical challenges and the pace of a small startup.
The role is fully remote within Europe. Being based in Portugal, particularly Lisbon, is a plus.
PROJECT & CONTEXT
Own the iOS app across architecture, performance, releases and technical roadmap. Collaborate closely with engineering and product leadership to improve onboarding, engagement and retention.
Build polished native experiences with smooth animations, responsive interactions and platform-specific conventions. Support and mentor the two engineers already contributing to mobile, sharing knowledge and improving engineering practices.
Work in a product-led growth environment, shipping features, instrumenting user journeys, measuring results and iterating through A/B testing. Take responsibility for App Store deployment, release cadence, versioning, store optimization and crash monitoring.
The wider platform includes Node.js, React, React Native, Next.js, NestJS, Expo, Prisma, Tailwind CSS and AWS. Specific technology versions and supported iOS versions are to be confirmed.
