About the Team:

UX Foundations owns Quizlets mobile apps end to end - both the core app layers everything else is built on (shared libraries and SDKs, security, CI/CD, and the release process) and a steady stream of feature work across the app. Feature teams build user-facing features, but UX Foundations ships features directly just as often, especially where the work touches the foundation itself. We collaborate closely with feature teams, backend services, design, and product to keep the mobile app reliable, fast to build on, and moving forward for learners.

About the Role:

Youll split your time between owning core iOS app layers — shared libraries, SDKs, security, CI/CD, and the release process — that every feature team builds on, and shipping user-facing features directly. Both are core to the role, not one occasional on top of the other.

In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with engineers, designers, and product managers to deliver high-quality mobile experiences. You’ll have the opportunity to influence technical direction, contribute to architecture decisions, and mentor other engineers while driving projects from ideation through release.

In this role, you will:

• Multiple years of iOS development experience with a deep knowledge of Swift, SwiftUI, and UIKit

• Capable of owning complex features end-to-end

• Strong problem solving and debugging skills on mobile software products

• Proficiency in either iOS or Android development and some level of comfort with the other.

Bonus points if you have:

• Experience running paywall experiments with tools like Superwall or RevenueCat

• Side projects that you shipped to the App Store

• Willingness to make minor backend changes to own your work across the stack
  

Compensation, Benefits & Perks:
