Job Description
Like a lot of technology companies, we are mostly working remotely at Starling and we think we will be for a while to come. We're open to applications from across the UK but our preference is that you're located within a commutable distance to either our London or Southampton office, so that when we're able to see each other and collaborate in person again, we're ready to go!
We are very open about how we deliver software - have a look at our QCon presentations or engineering podcasts to see what our developers have been up to. You can also try coding against your own bank account with us using our open APIs (see the developer site)
Starling engineers love building things, creating new stuff, learning new technologies and working with others across all areas of the business to bring brilliant products and features to life. We're open-minded when it comes to hiring and we care more about aptitude and attitude than specific experience or qualifications. If you care enough to find elegant solutions to difficult technical problems, we'd love to hear from you.
Requirements
We have native iOS apps written in Swift respectively. The apps are award winning and one of the main channels for customers using the bank. We are looking for iOS engineers to work on these apps who:
- Want to work on a feature rich mobile app with millions of customers;
- Can produce robust, well tested code that will give our customers the reliability that they need;
- Care about the product, the user experience and the design;
- Think (like us) that a small number of empowered developers is the right way to deliver software;
Benefits
