Position Summary
IB Domain is preferable, Cloud AWS backends. High performance responsive applications.
We are seeking an exceptionally skilled
IOS Developer
with deep expertise in Swift, high-performance mobile architectures, and AWS cloud-native backends. In this role, you will lead the design, development, and optimization of enterprise mobile applications servicing institutional clients, investment bankers, and high-frequency traders.
The ideal candidate thrives at the intersection of ultra-low latency mobile engineering and complex financial systems—building responsive UIs capable of processing thousands of market ticks per second while maintaining enterprise-grade security and sub-millisecond thread execution.
Key Responsibilities
- Architecture \& Native Development:
Architect, build, and maintain mission-critical native iOS applications using modern Swift (Swift 5\.9\+, Combine, SwiftUI, UIKit) adhering to clean patterns (MVVM-C, The Composable Architecture).
- High-Throughput UI Rendering:
Engineer high-frequency, responsive interfaces handling real-time tick data, live order book depth, and interactive portfolio analytics without main-thread blocking or frame drops.
- AWS Integration \& Networking:
Implement robust, resilient networking layers utilizing the AWS SDK for Swift, WebSockets, RESTful APIs via AWS API Gateway, GraphQL (AWS AppSync), and intelligent offline caching.
- Concurrency \& Memory Tuning:
Utilize Xcode Instruments (Time Profiler, Allocations, Leaks) to eliminate retain cycles, optimize memory usage, manage Swift Actors/async-await pipelines, and ensure maximum execution speed.
- Financial-Grade Security:
Implement end-to-end security protocols including OAuth2/OIDC via AWS Cognito, biometrics (FaceID/TouchID), hardware-backed Keychain storage, certificate pinning, and zero-trust encryption standards.
- DevOps \& Quality Assurance:
Drive automated testing strategies (XCTest, XCUITest) and continuous deployment workflows via Fastlane, GitHub Actions, and AWS Device Farm.
Required Qualifications
- 6\+ Years
of professional native iOS development using Swift.
- Investment Banking / Financial Domain Experience:
Direct experience developing capital markets, wealth management, or high-frequency trading platforms (handling execution order books, streaming FX/equities/bonds data, portfolio risk analytics).
- Advanced Concurrency Mastery:
Expert knowledge of Swift Concurrency (async/await, TaskGroup, Actors) and Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) for lock-free, thread-safe data structures.
- AWS Cloud Infrastructure:
Proven experience integrating iOS applications with AWS services (AWS SDK for Swift, API Gateway, AppSync, Cognito, Lambda, S3, DynamoDB).
- Reactive Frameworks:
Deep experience with Combine or RxSwift for complex, high-volume event stream handling.
- Instruments \& Profiling:
Advanced proficiency with Xcode Instruments for tracking allocations, CPU bottlenecks, leaks, and energy impact.
Preferred Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with streaming message protocols (WebSockets, gRPC, Protobuf).
- Solid understanding of financial compliance requirements (Client, SEC, GDPR) and secure audit logging.
- Custom graphics rendering experience using Metal, Core Graphics, or Swift Charts for custom market indicators.
