We’re looking for a Staff iOS Mobile Engineer to help lead and shape the highly anticipated Aave app. You’ll build high-quality, secure and intuitive experiences across our ecosystem while working closely with design, product and engineering teams. This role offers meaningful ownership, deep technical impact, and the opportunity to push the boundaries of mobile and blockchain UX. Aave Labs is a software technology company, renowned for building innovative web3 products based on blockchain technologies.

You'll build secure wallet and key-management interfaces, and deliver real-time data experiences such as balances, yield updates, and notifications. You will collaborate closely with designers to deliver pixel-perfect UI, refined interactions, and a cohesive mobile design system. You will work with backend and protocol engineers to integrate on-chain/off-chain data, supply/bridge/vault flows, and analytics. You will optimise app performance across memory, battery, cold-start time, and overall responsiveness. You will partner cross-functionally on requirements, timelines, security reviews, code quality, and long-term architecture.

Qualifications: 5+ years building consumer mobile apps, 3+ years with UIKit, strong Swift proficiency, deep knowledge of mobile architecture, navigation, animations, and native module integration, experience integrating blockchain features (wallets, transactions, gas, RPCs), familiarity with account abstraction, proven ability to ship polished, design-precise mobile experiences with strong UX sensibilities, experience with secure storage, encryption, and managing sensitive user data, comfortable owning large product areas end-to-end and collaborating in fast-moving, cross-functional teams
