Position Description:

• We re hiring (more than one) senior iOS Developer for our Clients Wealth Management App team-a collaborative group of folks that value craftsmanship and curiosity.
• This position is on-site in our Calgary office (minimum of 3 days a week).
• We re not looking for someone who just knows how to build screens.
• We re looking for an engineer who understands why things work the way they do - someone who can reason about performance, architecture, and the nuances of Apple s frameworks like a true craftsman.

What You ll Do:

• Architect and build robust, scalable iOS applications using Swift and SwiftUI
• Write clean, testable, maintainable code with a strong emphasis on performance and reliability
• Dive deep into Apple APIs -- from Local Authentication to Common Crypto -- and use them to solve real-world problems elegantly
• Optimize performance using profiling tools, concurrency strategies, and thoughtful design
• Mentor other developers and help shape the technical culture of our Calgary office
• Use AI tools to accelerate development, not replace it, freeing up time for deeper thinking and more impactful work

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 Authentication Services or WebKit
• Apple Ecosystem: Talk about your experience with CI/CD, Xcode, performance tuning, app signing, crash analysis, or architecture decisions

We re not looking for perfection we re looking for engineers who think deeply, communicate clearly, and care about the craft of iOS development.
