About the Role
As Tech Lead for iOS, you will be the primary technical owner of the wallet iOS application. This hands-on individual contributor role does not involve direct people management responsibilities. You will take charge of the app’s architecture and development, enhance its CI/CD workflow, and monitor its performance post-release. Your work will involve wallet features including perpetual trading, prediction markets, and DeFi staking, in collaboration with the Product Owner, Android Lead, and QA. Additionally, you will utilize AI-assisted tools during development and testing, applying sound engineering judgment to review and validate their output.
