As an iOS Developer II, you will be a critical contributor to the entire Kobo app. You will take ownership over key features and deliver them from inception to completion. We pride ourselves in a collaborative environment, and you will have input over future product direction and features
You will be joining the iOS team within the Global Apps group. We have recently re-written our iOS app in pure Swift/Swift UI. While most of the code inside the app is new native Swift code, the app incorporates some legacy React Native components (such as the reading experience)
There is an existing React Native team to maintain these components, with integration and support provided by the iOS team as needed
Contribute new features to the Kobo App
Fix issues and maintain the quality of the codebase
Take complete ownership of features and tasks
Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Design, Backend, and QA to clarify requirements, break down work, and ship iteratively
