Position Description

As an iOS Engineer at Toptal, you will help us scale for our continued growth as a game-changing, industry-defining company shaping the future of work.

The work we do every day is purely in Swift. We try to stay on the cutting edge of technology and use Combine and SwiftUI in our products. And if you’re looking for an opportunity to grow Android skills this is the place for you - we encourage cross platform collaboration.

We are a product team delivering value to the end-users working closely with the business. You will be working directly on the Talent app used by thousands of Toptal freelancers. You will have the opportunity to develop new features and improve the quality of the existing codebase.

We don’t cut corners, and we don’t make compromises—we build expertly designed native mobile apps that are polished, fast, well-tested, and a joy to use.
