Staff Software Engineer, Faraday Future

• Bachelor’s degree or above in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related discipline
• 7+ years of professional iOS development with significant ownership of app/module architecture and delivery at scale
• Expert in Swift, SwiftUI (plus UIKit where appropriate), async/await/Actors, and modularization with SPM; solid DI patterns and testable architecture
• App/Scene Lifecycle & System Fundamentals: deep understanding of App/Scene lifecycle, BGTaskScheduler/background URLSession, notifications, deep/universal links, multitasking; Core Animation pipeline and run loop basics
• Performance Engineering: proficiency with Instruments (Time Profiler, Allocations/Leaks, Core Animation, Energy, Network) and MetricKit; ability to reduce cold‑start time, main‑thread blocking, memory churn, and dropped frames
• Networking/Security: strong with URLSession, caching, reachability, ATS, Keychain/Secure Enclave, privacy/ATT, and common auth patterns (OAuth2/OIDC)
• Flutter proficiency (Dart): capable of implementing production Flutter features, embedding Flutter reliably, integrating via Platform Channels/FFI, and profiling hybrid screens to meet frame budgets
• CI/CD for iOS (Xcode/SCMs, Fastlane or GitHub Actions/GitLab CI/Jenkins); ability to maintain stable, fast pipelines

Desirable

• As a Staff Software Engineer (iOS) in our Crypto projects, you will design, build, and ship high‑quality iOS applications distributed via the App Store
• You’ll own module‑level architecture and end‑to‑end delivery—discovery, technical design, implementation, testing, performance tuning, release, and observability—using modern iOS practices (Swift, SwiftUI, structured concurrency with async/await/Actors, modularization with SPM)
• You will set engineering standards, lead design reviews, and partner with Product, Design, and Backend to deliver secure, fast, and reliable user experiences
• Architecture & Design: Define app/module architecture (Clean, MVVM/MVI), boundaries, and data contracts; lead ADRs/design reviews; drive modularization and code health
• Feature Delivery: Ship user‑facing features with maintainable Swift code; uphold code quality via reviews, automation, and guardrails
• Cross‑Platform: Build and maintain Flutter (Dart) modules in an iOS “add‑to‑app” setup; integrate via Platform Channels/FFI; ensure UX/perf parity with native. (React Native experience is a plus.)
• Performance & Reliability: Optimize launch, frame time/dropped frames, memory, energy, and networking; apply Instruments and MetricKit; maintain 60/120 Hz frame budgets
• Quality & Testing: Establish testability; write unit/integration/UI tests (XCTest/XCUITest, snapshot where useful); use URLProtocol/OHHTTPStubs for mocks; keep CI green
• Security & Release: Implement Keychain/Secure Enclave, ATS, certificate pinning, and Biometric auth; own code signing/TestFlight, staged rollouts/feature flags; monitor crash/hang and drive RCAs
