Summary

Join Satispay as an iOS Developer to build mission-critical consumer payment features for 6+ million users across Europe. You'll develop high-quality native iOS applications using Swift, SwiftUI, and MVVM architecture in a collaborative fintech environment that values technical excellence and user-centric design. This role requires 3+ years of iOS development experience and offers significant ownership from technical design through App Store deployment in a hybrid, fast-paced startup setting.

What you'll do

Develop Native iOS Applications: Create and implement innovative native iOS applications that enhance user engagement with mission-critical consumer features. Work across the entire development lifecycle from technical design, architecture planning, and implementation through production deployment and App Store release management.
Build Payment & Financial Features: Design and develop core fintech features including payment transactions, money transfers, savings mechanisms, and investment functionality. Ensure robust client-side authentication and maintain high security standards for handling sensitive financial data.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate closely with product managers, product designers, and backend engineers to integrate features and ensure cohesive mobile solutions. Participate in design reviews, technical discussions, and product refinement cycles to align implementation with strategic objectives.
User Experience Optimization: Leverage technical expertise to address user pain points and enhance the mobile experience through intuitive design and optimized functionality. Partner with data analysts to design and execute A/B tests that maximize user engagement and drive measurable growth metrics.
Code Quality & Performance Management: Maintain high standards for code quality, application performance, and security practices. Contribute to the reliability of iOS applications through rigorous testing, performance profiling, and adherence to architectural best practices using clean code principles and SOLID design patterns.
Problem Solving & Technical Innovation: Transform ambiguous user requirements into scalable technical solutions by balancing rapid delivery velocity with long-term code maintainability. Apply AI-powered tools to accelerate development cycles, conduct root cause analysis, and generate comprehensive technical documentation.
Continuous Improvement & Feature Iteration: Drive ongoing refinement of existing applications through iterative development practices. Identify optimization opportunities, refactor legacy code, and implement new user-centric features that maintain cutting-edge functionality and competitive advantage in the fintech market.
