Lead iOS Developer

Do you want to lead development of an app used by over a million people?

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a consumer app that’s genuinely visible, widely used, and part of everyday life for 1m+ people.

We’re looking for a Lead iOS Engineer to shape and guide a core mobile experience in Native iOS application. You’ll remain close to the code while also setting direction, raising standards, and supporting the engineers around you.

It reaches real users.

You see the impact of what you build.

The environment is collaborative and low-ego. Engineers are trusted, encouraged to learn, and given space to do good work. Technology is treated as something worth investing in, not something to rush or cut corners on.

You’ll lead mobile development within a close product team, working closely with product and design to make thoughtful decisions and deliver things that matter.

The focus is on ownership and quality:

• Setting technical direction and making sensible trade-offs
• Improving how things are built, not just delivering features
• Supporting and mentoring other engineers
• Keeping standards high while maintaining momentum

This suits someone who enjoys responsibility and wants to grow further as a technical leader while staying hands-on.

You’ll have real input into architecture, tooling, and ways of working, all while building a product used at national scale. There’s room to stretch yourself, build confidence, and shape how mobile engineering is done over the long term.

• A consumer product used by over a million people
• Clear influence over mobile engineering
• A supportive, tech-led team environment
• Hybrid working, usually one or two days on-site in Glasgow City Centre
