Role Overview

We seek an experienced iOS engineer to develop the native iOS experience for BJAK's AI-powered Neobank application. This role focuses on delivering clean user flows, high-performance, and a polished product that provides reliable mobile features to real users.

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop, and release native iOS features spanning onboarding, account management, cards, payments, transfers, rewards, and AI-driven user journeys.
Simplify complex financial processes for a seamless and responsive mobile experience.
Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, backend, and AI teams to translate concepts into production-ready features.
Maintain high app standards covering performance, crash handling, loading states, edge cases, responsiveness, and release stability.
Leverage user feedback, analytics, and behavior data post-launch to enhance features continuously.
Implement secure API integrations, authentication, and financial workflow reliability with meticulous attention.

Candidate Profile

Proven expertise in native iOS development using Swift.
Demonstrated experience deploying iOS applications with active user bases.
Strong familiarity with SwiftUI, UIKit, asynchronous programming (async/await), and iOS architectural patterns.
Keen product insight with a focus on compelling user experiences beyond just UI construction.
Capable of debugging live production issues and enhancing app performance and stability.
Comfortable succeeding in ambiguous, fast-paced startup settings without compromising quality.

Candidate Expectations

Applicants should have significant personal impact in previous technology roles, such as building, launching, or scaling substantial products or systems.

Who This Role Is Not Suitable For

Developers seeking highly prescriptive, fully defined tasks.
Engineers focused only on screen building without prioritizing user experience.
Those neglecting crashes, performance hiccups, or edge cases.
Professionals unable to keep pace in dynamic startup environments.
Candidates who overstate impact without clarifying their contributions.

Additional Details

This is a fully remote position but limited to candidates based in Singapore as the hiring is targeted for this market.
English proficiency is mandatory as it is the primary language for global team communication.
The interview process is streamlined for efficiency, including an online test, role-specific interview, and a final round with the CEO. Strong applicants who promptly complete assessments are prioritized, aiming for an offer within one week.
