IOS Engineer

We started with a simple idea: the things you use most often should be the best things you own.

This led us to invent.

Opal has been working on new things that may surprise even you.

So much has changed in technology, and so much of technology is stuck in the lab. Opal is building a series of new devices, that give consumers exciting new abilities.

It’s more than cameras.

Focus: Craft the mobile experience that connects our devices to people's daily lives, from first pairing to everyday use.

• 3-6 years of experience building and shipping native iOS applications.
• Fluent in Swift and SwiftUI, with a strong grasp of UIKit and the broader Apple ecosystem.
• Design and build intuitive interfaces for pairing, controlling, and managing hardware devices over Bluetooth/BLE and Wi-Fi.
• Well-versed in iOS app lifecycle, allowed background activity, and ensuring uninterrupted peripheral device connectivity with the app in the background.
• Partner closely with firmware and cloud teams to build seamless, low-latency communication between the app, device, and backend.
• Own onboarding, account, and OTA update flows that feel effortless to the end user.
