We're hiring (more than one) senior iOS Developer in Calgary for our E*TRADE and *** 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 LocalAuthentication to CommonCrypto - 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
- 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
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
- Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.
- BA/BS in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Experience developing APIs.
- Awareness of Android app development.
- Strong user experience skills.
