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.
