Job Title: iOS App Developer - Wealth Management Technology
Location: Calgary (day 1 onboarding onsite / in-office presence required 3x/week). Open to candidates who can relocate to Calgary.Position DescriptionWe’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
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
We’re not looking for perfection — we’re looking for engineers who think deeply, communicate clearly, and care about the craft of iOS development.This is a full-time position and is expected to be at least one year in duration. The candidate must work on-site, a minimum of 3 days a week. Vacation policy is flexible with advance notice.Additional Required Skills:
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.
  • BA/BS in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Additional Desired Skills
  • Experience developing APIs.
  • Awareness of Android app development.
  • Strong user experience skills.
