ABOUT FAVORITED

At favorited, we believe that digital communities should be more than just spaces to watch content. Our platform is a place to connect, engage, and play, empowering creators by enhancing audience participation and fostering deeper connections.

If you’re a self-starter eager to shape the future of social interaction with a team that holds itself to the highest standards, this is the place for you. We value open, yet respectful communication and real-time feedback to help each other grow quickly. If you’re passionate about gaming and have a knack for gamifying everyday life, you’ll thrive in our fast-moving, collaborative environment.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re seeking a Member of Technical Staff - iOS to develop and optimize our iOS app, delivering an engaging, performant, and secure mobile experience for our users. You’ll be instrumental in shaping how communities interact and create meaningful experiences on our platform. As part of a close-knit engineering team, you’ll collaborate directly with product, design, and backend teams to bring innovative features to life and ensure our mobile experience stands out in the industry.

Responsibilities

- Design, build, and maintain high-quality native iOS applications using Swift.

- Own features end-to-end, from technical design through implementation, testing, and release.

- Collaborate closely with product, design, backend, and infrastructure teams to deliver seamless user experiences.

- Optimize application performance, scalability, and reliability for a rapidly growing user base.

- Contribute to architectural decisions and help define best practices for iOS development.

- Identify and proactively solve technical challenges before they impact users or development velocity.

- Participate in code reviews and mentor other engineers to elevate overall team quality.

- Help improve development workflows, tooling, and release processes.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- 5+ years of professional iOS development experience.

- Proven track record of shipping multiple native iOS applications to the App Store.

- Experience building and scaling large-scale applications supporting millions of users.

- Deep expertise in Swift and modern iOS frameworks.

- Strong understanding of mobile architecture patterns (MVC, MVVM, etc.).

- Experience working with APIs, real-time systems, and performance-critical applications.

- Strong debugging, profiling, and optimization skills.

- Ability to operate in a fast-paced, startup environment with high ownership.

What Stands Out

- Experience at a high-growth startup or in a rapid scaling environment.

- Experience with real-time communication features and integrating with backend services.

- Familiarity with analytics, experimentation, in-app purchases, and push notifications.

- Enthusiasm for shaping the future of social or gaming communities.

- Experience with Android development (Kotlin/Java).

- Familiarity with cross-platform considerations and mobile system design.

- Experience with real-time, interactive, or live-streaming products.

SALARY & BENEFITS

Compensation: $150,000 - $200,000 base salary + equity.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
