About the role

This is a rare opportunity to define the architecture, engineering standards, user experience, and technical direction of a new native iOS app at a company with real scale, strong momentum, and meaningful product complexity.
You will help shape how millions of users discover, book, and enjoy ResortPass on mobile across search, property details, booking, account, and post-booking experiences.
We're looking for an engineer with strong product instincts, excellent engineering judgment, and a high bar for craft, someone who wants to help define what mobile should be at ResortPass for years to come.

Own the iOS app end-to-end across core marketplace flows including search, discovery, property details, booking, account, and post-booking.
Build a high-quality native iOS codebase from the ground up, including architecture, state management, networking, observability, testing strategy, CI/CD, and release processes.
Partner closely with Product and Design to build intuitive, polished, trustworthy mobile experiences with excellent attention to detail.
Help define our mobile app strategy, including where mobile should lead, how it should differentiate from web, and where it can create the most leverage for the business.
Drive performance, reliability, and quality across startup time, navigation, rendering, networking, offline handling, error states, and app stability.
Play a foundational leadership role in building the iOS function, including helping attract, mentor, and eventually build a strong team around you.
Our marketplace connects guests with 2,500+ partner hotels and resorts, including Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Marriott, Hilton, and more.
The result is unforgettable experiences for guests and meaningful new revenue streams for partners.

You have led or heavily influenced architecture decisions for a substantial iOS codebase.
You know how to move fast without creating long-term fragility.
You have strong engineering fundamentals: code quality, testing discipline, observability, release reliability, and operational ownership.

You are energized by zero-to-one work and want real ownership, not a narrow lane.
You bring taste and judgment.
You know when to insist on quality, when to simplify, and how to make smart tradeoffs in a fast-moving company.
Ideally, you've worked on high-quality consumer products at top engineering organizations or elite startups where the bar for craft and execution is exceptionally high.
You're a good person.
Being thoughtful, low-ego, and great to work with should not be.
This retains and sharpens the values language from your current JD.
You've helped launch a high-quality new iOS app that materially improves the ResortPass customer experience.

We're building a new category in hospitality: day access to luxury hotel experiences, from breathtaking pools and private beaches to deluxe spas and wellness escapes, so people can enjoy incredible experiences without an overnight stay.
We've helped millions of people enjoy premium hospitality close to home, making rest more mindful, togetherness more meaningful, and escape more accessible.
Backed by some of the best consumer and growth investors, including CRV, Declaration, Brian Kelly (The Points Guy), WME, FJ Labs, and more, ResortPass is scaling a product people love while creating an entirely new way to experience hospitality.
Why ResortPass (Why now)
We've demonstrated product-market fit at scale, we're the category leader, growing fast, and nearing profitability.
Yet the team is still small enough that one exceptional engineer can have outsized influence across product, technology, and the business.
For context on scale: 5M+ customers served, 250K+ monthly users and growing, 800K app installs last year, and hundreds of millions of dollars generated for our hotel partners.
We're now entering a new phase of growth.
We're expanding into new categories, deepening distribution, and accelerating international expansion.
Mobile is core to that next chapter.
