About the role

  • Handshake is the career network for millions of students and early-career professionals, and our iOS app is how many of them find their first job.
  • Nearly one million students use the app every week to discover jobs, connect with employers, and attend career events.
  • You'd be joining a small iOS team of four senior engineers as our first Engineer I, which means two things.

Responsibilities

  • Build in Swift and SwiftUI (with UIKit where it lives today) inside an MVVM + Coordinator architecture: you'll write view models, wire up GraphQL/REST services, and ship UI on our internal design system
  • 2+ years of professional iOS software engineering experience building and shipping production mobile applications.
  • Roughly 1-3 years of building iOS apps, professionally or independently.
  • You communicate clearly in PRs, in design discussions, and when you're stuck.

Requirements

  • Experience with both SwiftUI and UIKit, and moving between them
  • Familiarity with GraphQL, unit/UI testing (XCTest or similar), or CI/CD tooling like Fastlane
  • You can walk through something you built and explain why you structured it that way, where it breaks, and what you'd redo.
  • You know your way around modern iOS fundamentals: Swift, view models and MVVM (or similar patterns), networking, and asynchronous code.

Skills

  • Write unit tests for your view models, contribute to acceptance test coverage, and care about the quality of what you ship
