Software Developer — iOS

We believe that communication belongs to everyone. Text Now is redefining how people connect by combining simplicity, intelligence, and accessibility. We’re a team of curious builders using technology to make communication more affordable and powerful for millions of users every day.

As aSoftware Developer - iOS, you won’t just build apps—you’ll shape the systems, architecture, and tooling that make them possible. At Text Now, Members of Technical Staff combine leadership and hands on coding to enable the highest leverage opportunities possible. Being able to operate strategically, as well as diving into the lowest level details is a must.

You’ll take technical ownership of key mobile domains and work across mobile, backend, and data to create faster, smarter, more reliable products.

As well, AI and automation are at the core of how we build. You’ll use them to accelerate development, improve performance, detect and resolve issues faster, and continuously raise the bar for mobile development excellence.

We’re hiring Members of Technical Staff across multiple levels (intermediate/senior/staff+). Whether you’re an experienced developer looking to lead complex systems, or an early-career developer eager to grow, we’ll align your title and scope based on experience and impact.

This role is aboutimpactatscale.

You’llshape howTextNowbuilds andoperatesits systems in an AI-first environment where intelligent tooling is embedded into everyday engineering practice.Using AI is not optional,it’sexpected.From design and architecture to implementation, testing, debugging, documentation, and operational analysis, you will activelyleverage

AI tools to increase velocity, improve code quality, and make better technical decisions. We provide a robust suite of AI-powered development tools and workflows to support you, and we expect you to continuously evolve how you use them to raise the bar for efficiency, clarity, and product excellence across the organization.

• Design, develop, and sustain high-performance iOS applications using Swift, Swift
  
  UI, and Objective-C.
