Surface emotional-state and biometric insights from the core inference model through clean, intuitive app interfaces.
Build and ship a consumer-grade mobile experience that meets high product quality standards.
At least 2 to 3 years of professional iOS engineering experience; this role is not suitable for recent graduates.
Proven track record shipping polished, consumer-grade iOS applications.
Strong Swift proficiency and the ability to own mobile architecture decisions autonomously.
Experience translating complex model or data outputs into clean, accessible user interfaces.
Strong computer science fundamentals and comfort operating independently across time zones.
Background in full-stack or data-driven app development is a plus.
Salary of $150,000 USD (or approximately GBP 75,000 for London-based candidates), plus meaningful early-stage equity of up to 1 to 2%. No new visa sponsorship is available; visa transfers and OPT transitions are acceptable.
