About this opportunity

An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Digital Frameworks Platform for a Senior iOS Engineer. As a Senior Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in designing, developing, and maintaining our iOS applications. You will work in a cross-functional team to create customer-friendly, high-performance, and scalable features that are being used by more than 26 million customers through brands including Lloyd's Bank, Halifax & Bank of Scotland.

Here’s where you’ll make a difference:

You have a can-do attitude, interest in exploring technologies beyond your core skills, willingness to learn, high motivation, and a passion for working with people, in a strong collaborative way to drive efforts to create, build, support, and improve our applications. You also enjoy working closely with the product and other engineering teams with lots of exciting new challenges. You'll be a core contributor to ensure good quality and engineering practices are followed in accordance with engineering transformation strategy.

• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration of iOS applications with other systems.
• Staying up-to-date with the latest iOS trends and technologies and actively contributing to architectural decisions and tech stack choices.
• Mentoring and providing technical guidance to junior iOS developers.
• Conducting code reviews to maintain code quality and supporting knowledge sharing through peer programming.

Why Lloyds Banking Group

Like the modern Britain we serve, we’re evolving. Investing billions in our people, data, and tech to transform the way we meet the ever-changing needs of our 26 million customers. We’re growing with purpose. Join us on our journey and you will too.

What you’ll need

We believe that people don't fit neatly into roles, and we value everyone's individual skills, experience, and knowledge — it's what makes you amazing.

As a minimum to be considered, we would like to see demonstrated core experience in:

• Professional hands-on experience and working knowledge in designing mobile applications.
• Proficiency in Swift, as well as a strong knowledge in concurrency and threading.
• Solid understanding of software architecture (MVVM), design patterns, and best practices.
• Creating and managing frameworks in a modular codebase.
• Strong problem-solving and attention to details.

And any experience of these would be really useful:

• Familiar with CI/CD pipeline setup and native automated testing frameworks.
• iOS Security mechanisms and best practices.
• Secure coding standards and guidelines (e.g. OWASP Mobile).

Just so you know, we will be asking you to complete a technical task during the interview process. We hope you find it fun, interesting, and challenging.
