What you’ll do: • Shape the core experience for both users and developers interacting with SumUp's iOS ecosystem • Collaborate closely with product and design teams to build components that are maintainable, consistent, and beautiful • Embed accessibility best practices into every component — from content descriptions and touch target sizing to color contrast and dynamic type • Provide hands-on technical guidance to product teams to deliver on company priorities, including the upcoming brand refresh • Review code contributions, enforce design system conventions, and mentor engineers on best practices for reusable UI development • Lead the migration of legacy UIKit-based components to SwiftUI while maintaining system stability • Proactively identify and address technical debt to uphold a high bar for engineering excellence and codebase health You’ll be a great fit for this role if you: • Bring 3+ years of professional iOS development experience, ideally on large-scale or consumer-facing applications • Are fluent in Swift, with deep hands-on knowledge of both SwiftUI and UIKit — and a clear view on when and how to use each • Bring experience building or contributing to a design system, component library, or shared UI framework, and understand what it takes to make components truly reusable and scalable • Take pride in crafting accessible user experiences — you know your way around VoiceOver, dynamic type, color contrast, and touch target standards, and treat accessibility as a first-class concern, not an afterthought • Bring a strong grasp of testing best practices for UI components, including unit tests, snapshot tests, and UI automation • Are comfortable reviewing code and mentoring peers — you enjoy sharing knowledge, giving constructive feedback, and raising the bar for the whole team • Are self-motivated and structured in your working style — you manage your own priorities, communicate clearly in English, and thrive in a cross-functional, collaborative environment • Stay genuinely curious about the iOS ecosystem — you follow Apple's releases closely, experiment with new APIs, and are excited to bring fresh ideas back to the team Why you should join SumUp: 🌎 Opportunity to work with SumUppers globally on large-scale fintech products used by millions of businesses worldwide, from our Berlin office.
