Overheard in the office, on real projects:

“We can just use this convolutional neural network approach and remove the depth sensor.” - Engineering Team

“That’s a solution looking for a problem.” - Design Team

“There is no ‘I’ in team, no really there isn’t.” - Production Team

Job description

Alrighty! We’re looking for an iOS native whiz, with a serious interest in shiny new applications. You will initially be working on an app for one of NZ’s largest telcos to reliably bring media to the masses, and the sky’s the limit from there!

Skills & requirements

Excellent communication skills.

iOS skills: preferably 4+ years’ commercial experience building high quality iOS Swift or Objective-C apps using industry best practice.

Ideally, you know a bit about Video technologies like HLS, Brightcove and various streaming protocols.

Strong knowledge and experience with UIKit and the iOS SDK’s of past and present.

Experience with iOS Objective-C or Swift and the XCode toolchain.

Familiarity with mobile app CICD tools and workflows (you can probably explain how iOS code signing works in relative detail).

You are a master debugger, you’ve got a deep knowledge of the iOS ecosystem and operating system, and getting close to metal isn’t something you’d be shy about.

You’ve shipped apps, many times.

You dig agile development and you really know - and can show your experience with - the whole software dev life-cycle. You’re a start-to-finish kinda kid.

Documentation and communication (in-person, email, slack, carrier pigeon if need be) doesn’t scare you.

You need a reasonable opinion around here so you can share recommendations and alternatives objectively. Plus, it helps when deciding where to go for lunch.

You’re effective by nature - you like to move fast, you like prototyping, and you love validating and being thorough in all aspects of your day-to-day job.
