Full description
SOFTWARE ENGINEER, iOS
Current is a leading consumer fintech platform transforming financial access for everyday Americans with over 6 million members. We provide access to financial solutions that seamlessly work together to solve the needs of our members and enable all Americans to build better financial futures. Based in NYC, our results-driven environment drives us to build better products, grow faster and empower everyone on our team to have an impact on our business and mission to improve financial outcomes.
Our mobile engineers are responsible for building the full suite of user experiences for our members, leveraging our proprietary backend banking core. The mobile apps are native (Kotlin/Swift), built 100% natively with no cross-platform frameworks, and primarily use gRPC to interface with our backend. Being the primary interface for our members to manage their finances (there isn't a web app), the mobile experience needs to be highly performant and intuitive to use. Our engineers work closely with senior teammates to learn the foundational layers of application infrastructure, our reusable UI components, and the data that drives product decisions. Join us for an opportunity to work in a fast-moving environment where your work is highly visible and has a direct impact on our members' financial outcomes!
We are looking for an iOS engineer to join our team in New York. This role has a salary range of $150,000 - $200,000. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience building and shipping native iOS applications and is looking to grow their craft on a small, high-ownership team. This person should be a motivated self-starter who's comfortable asking questions, learning quickly, and working through ambiguity in a fast-paced environment.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
- Be part of a small and nimble mobile engineering team working closely with our product, design, and backend engineering teams to ship end-to-end experiences for our users
- Own features from design handoff through launch, with support from senior engineers on system design and architecture decisions
- Contribute to and learn our scalable, reusable mobile frameworks that improve code consistency and engineering velocity
- Build strong instincts for engineering excellence through active participation in code and architecture review
- Help Current's members build better financial futures through products like Paycheck Advance, Build Card, and Savings Pods
- A strong culture of code and architecture review, with real mentorship from senior teammates
