Senior iOS Software Engineer New London

We’re Beauty Pie. We’re the world’s first luxury beauty and wellness buyers’ club. And we’re disrupting the beauty industry, one face cream at a time.

Before we arrived on the scene, if you wanted really great beauty products, you had to shop at traditional beauty retail - and overpay for all the crazy markups. Now, our members have access to shop from the best-quality beauty and wellness products (from the leading labs in France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Japan, Korea, etc) and get a bigger piece of the Beauty Pie.

The Senior iOS Software Engineer will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our mobile presence, ensuring it resonates with the dynamic needs of all Beauty Pie members. This role involves designing and building a high-performing, user-centric iOS application from the ground up, focusing on delivering a seamless and engaging shopping experience. The role will leverage cutting-edge technologies like Swift, API integrations, and AWS, along with modern e-commerce platforms such as CommerceTools, to create intuitive and innovative features that enhance user interaction and drive customer loyalty. By collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, the engineer will ensure that our mobile offerings not only meet current market demands but also anticipate future trends, positioning our company as a leader in the digital beauty space. If you're passionate about beauty, mobile technology, and thrive in teamwork, we'd love to hear from you!

So, what will you be doing?

• Architectural Design and Development: Lead the design and development of the iOS application using Swift, focusing on crafting a robust and scalable application architecture. Ensure the application aligns with the overall business goals and integrates smoothly with existing systems.
• API Integration and Management: Handle integration of various APIs to connect the iOS application with backend services hosted on AWS, ensuring efficient data exchange and functionality that supports e-commerce operations.
• eCommerce Implementation: Collaborate with the e-commerce teams to implement core shopping features using a combination of internal microservices and CommerceTools, optimizing the app for member engagement and seamless shopping experiences.
• Team Collaboration and Leadership: Work closely with product managers, UX/UI designers, and other engineers to define feature requirements, set timelines, and lead portions of the project, ensuring alignment with the strategic vision of the mobile platform.
• Quality Assurance and Testing: Conduct rigorous testing routines to ensure the application's performance, usability, and security meet the high standards expected for a commercial product. Address any issues or bugs swiftly to maintain software quality.
• Continuous Learning and Mentoring: Stay updated with the latest developments in iOS development, Swift, and related technologies. Actively contribute to the growth mindset of the team by mentoring junior developers and sharing knowledge on best practices in mobile development.
