Job description
from Reddit careersThe iOS Platform team sets the technical direction for iOS at Reddit. Our customers are primarily other engineers. It’s our job to help improve developer efficiency by providing libraries/APIs/frameworks, monitoring performance, building shared components, improving build tools, etc. In the codebase, we own the core components of the app such as the networking and caching stack. We set the direction in which the codebase builds by defining which design patterns and technologies to employ at Reddit.
This role will enable us to architect our iOS app to scale for the next 100M+ DAUs. They will help establish the right standards in iOS development and will help in improving the overall iOS development experience at Reddit. In addition, they will mentor senior iOS engineers across Reddit and will be seen as a go-to person for any challenges on iOS App architecture.
