iOS Developer: Consumer App UI Build & Release

Contract:

3 months (initial)

Location:

• London, hybrid (3 days onsite) |
• Outside IR35

Start:

• ASAP
• About the role
• We're looking for an experienced iOS developer with a strong product UI background to build the front end of a new consumer app for a wealth management company. The back end is in place, so this is a hands-on role focused on creating a beautiful, intuitive iOS experience in Swift and taking it through to App Store release.
• This role is all about how the app looks and feels. We want someone who has worked in design-led product teams, cares about every detail of the user experience, and has built consumer apps people love to use. Financial services experience isn't required.
• What you'll be doing
• Building the iOS front end in Swift and SwiftUI, from an early stage through to launch
• Working closely with designers to turn designs into polished, pixel-perfect user interfaces
• Creating smooth animations, transitions and interactions that make the app a pleasure to use
• Setting up reusable UI components and a consistent design system
• Integrating the app with existing back-end APIs
• Owning the release process, from TestFlight through to App Store submission
• What we're looking for
• Strong commercial experience building consumer-facing iOS apps with a focus on polished UI
• Experience in design-led product teams, such as product companies, digital agencies or consumer brands
• A strong eye for design, with experience in animations, transitions and detailed UI work
• Proven experience with app releases: App Store submissions, TestFlight and App Store review
• Expert knowledge of Swift and SwiftUI (UIKit experience is a plus)
• Experience building apps from early stages, not only maintaining existing codebases
• Good understanding of accessibility (VoiceOver, Dynamic Type)
• Comfortable working onsite and collaborating closely with designers and product teams
• Nice to have
• Experience in fintech, investing or banking apps (not essential)
• Experience building design systems or reusable UI component libraries
• Release automation experience (e.g. Fastlane, Bitrise, Xcode Cloud)
