Who We AreStudio.init() is a team of mobile Eng/UX/Product experts with backgrounds at Startups, Google, Apple, Amazon, and Coinbase. Although our studio is just over a year old, we’re a tight group that has worked together for over five years at Google. Our work at Google was frequently highlighted in Google’s blog, 9to5Google, and 9to5Mac. We’re super legit, as our studio was featured in both Wired and Business Insider last year. We work with early-stage startups to help them establish a strong foundation and scale software products to new heights. We offer product, design, and engineering services, and our user-centric approach and deep understanding of the latest technologies transform their product visions from concept to reality. We also don’t offshore or nearshore our work as an agency. We are a local, USA-based (San Francisco and NYC Metro) team that does the work ourselves. Our Engineering team is located in Hoboken, NJ. Our UX Design team is located in San Francisco, CA. Both teams operate in a hybrid office environment. You can learn more about us here: https://www.studioinit.com. NOTE: NO Recruiters, Agencies, C2C, or Staffing firms - No Exceptions! Role DescriptionAre you an iOS software developer who loves diving into challenges? Are you energized to learn new things and thrive in ambiguity? If so, this role is for you! We’re looking for a mid-level iOS software engineer (L4, about four years of experience) - not someone senior with, say, ten years of experience. We’re looking for someone hungry to learn, perform, and improve. We want someone awesome in iOS development who can dive right in but is willing to learn other mobile platforms and frameworks (e.g., Android/Flutter/React Native) to expand their skills if the need arises. You’ll work alongside our senior-staff team of doers who developed their careers at startups and big tech. It’s a great opportunity to become a better and stronger engineer. We're growing fast, so there's lots of upside. You should be highly driven and self-motivated. You should be comfortable asking for help, but don’t expect us to do the work for you. You’ll be expected to manage your tasks (we SCRUM) and contribute meaningfully to projects. You’ll work sometimes on solo projects or be part of a small team (it varies). We function like a startup and work with various startups, so the pace is energetic and fun. If you like producing, this is a perfect opportunity to excel. This might not be for you if you like to take slow, methodical, and deep thoughts about design and implementation. We take on a variety of fun and challenging projects. We enjoy going outside our comfort zone to learn and improve. We strive for high-quality work, and our clients accept nothing but excellence. You'll be expected to work on all aspects of iOS development and whatever might need to be done. Day-to-day tasks will include writing and testing code, setting up CI/CD pipelines, identifying and fixing bugs, collaborating with our cross-functional teams, planning tasks, and participating in code reviews. This is an onsite contract role with the potential to become full-time. We're growing fast. The role is located in Hoboken, New Jersey. We are NOT considering fully remote or hybrid. Frankly, we’ve tried that, and it just doesn’t work. We want to create a strong culture of collaboration, and in our experience, remote work doesn’t cut it.
