Summary

This role is ideal for a product-minded iOS Developer with a strong command of **Swift and SwiftUI**. While the listing covers various levels, they are specifically looking for "lightning-fast" builders who prioritize user experience over technical perfection. Candidates with backgrounds in e-commerce, social media, or high-growth startups will have a significant advantage. The compensation is highly competitive, ranging from **$170k to $290k**, and includes unique perks like a "dogfooding" budget to shop on the platform. Although the role is tied to major hubs (NYC, SF, LA, or Seattle), the company operates with a "remote co-located" philosophy, offering a blend of home-office support and in-person collaboration for strategic planning. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have a track record of shipping polished, consumer-facing iOS features quickly. * Deeply understand iOS fundamentals and modern SwiftUI architecture. * Enjoy "wearing many hats" across growth, security, and platform engineering teams. * Value a low-ego environment and prefer building for the user rather than over-engineering solutions.

## 💻 Role

We’re hiring iOS Engineers across multiple teams, including Buyer Growth, Content & Navigation, Security, App Platform, and Customer Experience & Operations. Our hiring needs span a range of seniority levels — from mid-level to senior and staff-level leaders — and we thoughtfully align scope and leveling based on experience and demonstrated impact. Team matching happens in the later stages of the process, allowing us to pair you with the team where your strengths, interests, and growth goals will have the greatest impact.

As our next iOS Engineer, you’ll design and build mobile experiences and systems that sit at the heart of the seller and buyer experience—combining growth, trust, and scalability. Your work will directly shape how thousands of new sellers and buyers discover Whatnot, get started, and succeed every week.





We offer flexibility to work from home or from one of our global office hubs, and we value in-person time for planning, problem-solving, and connection. Team members in this role must live within commuting distance of our New York, Seattle, San Francisco or Los Angeles hub.

## 👋 You

People who do well at Whatnot tend to be comfortable figuring things out as they go, biased toward action, and genuinely curious about what they're building. They care more about outcomes than credit and stay close to the product and the people using it.
