\n📍Anywhere, UK | 💰 £80,000 - £140,000 base salary per year ➕ plus stock options + Benefits \nAbout us\n\nWe’re here to make money work for everyone and we're doing things differently. For too long, banking has been obtuse, complex and opaque.\n\nWe want to change that and build a bank with everyone, for everyone. Our amazing community suggests features, test the app and give us constant feedback so we can build something everyone loves.\n\nWe're focused on solving problems, rather than selling financial products. We want to make the world a better place and change people's lives through Monzo.\nAbout our mobile engineering practice\n\nOur mobile engineers have a variety of different backgrounds\n\nThere are 25 iOS engineers at Monzo and we’re looking for one more to join the team. We have several non-graduates; only some of us studied Computer Science; some of us have worked in huge companies; some have only ever worked in startups; others are former consultants. As long as you enjoy learning new things, we’d love to talk to you.\n\nWe are actively creating an equitable environment for all of our engineers to thrive\n\nDiversity and inclusion are a priority for us and we are making sure we have lots of support for all of our people to grow at Monzo.

We default to transparency and prefer to communicate openly in Slack rather than by email or in DMs. Our blog is an excellent place to learn even more about what we do!\n\nMonzo works in project-based sprints in small, interdisciplinary teams\n\nWe have 200+ engineers out of roughly 2,500 people in total - and we have big ambitions. There are many interesting challenges ahead, and we're happy for people to move between teams or to specialise, whatever you prefer. As an engineer here you'd be able to work directly with anyone across the company, and we run regular knowledge-sharing sessions so you’ll learn heaps about everything from how banks work to effective communication.\nYour day-to-day\n\nWe’re searching for a product-aware Senior iOS engineers with a passion for great UI and UX to join our team. You understand the need for tested, resilient code balanced against the need to move fast and iterate.\n\nYou’ll be working on a product that is a part of day to day life for more than 6 million people already, and your work here will shape the way that people interact with their finances.\n\nThis role is all about collaborating across disciplines to test hypotheses and make a difference to customers. As an iOS engineer at Monzo you'll work in a small, autonomous product squad alongside Android Engineers, Backend Engineers, User Researchers, Product Designers, Product Managers, QA Testers, Data Scientists and Business Analysts.\n\nYour mission will depend on the squad, but currently mobile engineers are working on the core personal banking experience, paid products, lending products, business banking and internal operations. We also have a small squad dedicated to enabling other mobile engineers to move faster.\n\nYou and your team will be responsible for an overall company goal, rather than building a specific feature - you'll have the opportunity to have impact on both what we build, and how we build it.\n\nEvery week we meet as a discipline to discuss tools, techniques, problems we're encountering across the company and work together to improve our codebase and processes.\n\nYou'll report to an engineering manager who will meet with you every 2 weeks 1:1, their mission is to help you develop and grow as an engineer.\nOur iOS app\n\nAt Monzo, you'll get to work with industry standard tools and technologies - and help us define what great looks like for iOS engineers.\n\nOur app is 100% Swift, built using a Model, View, View-Model architecture (MVVM). We use Coordinators to ensure we can re-use screens wherever possible, and avoid tightly coupling one screen to another. We make heavy use of protocols and extensions throughout our app.\n\nOur networking stack is built upon Alamofire, using a generic interface to easily de-serialise objects of a certain type, and we mirror our backend micro-service architecture by building individual services to house our API logic.\n\nWe persist objects using Realm when we need to.\n\nOur testing stack comprises of unit tests for business logic, stubbed API tests for pseudo-integration tests, snapshot tests for UI, and XCUITest for testing user input and sequencing.\n\nWe've published some talks and blog posts about how we work:\n\n\nWorking with backend services on iOS\n\nPushing Protocols to their Limits\n\nThe Release Mindset (how we release our apps)\n\n\n\nYou should apply if\n\nOur open roles are for Senior iOS Engineers at present.\n\n\nYou'll care about the impact your work has on our customers, and optimise for impact rather than the number of lines of code you output\n\nYou are excited about and have experience in programming in Swift\n\nYou’ve shipped and iterated on at least one app in the App Store\n\nYou have a product mindset: you care about customer outcomes and you want to make data-informed decisions\n\nYou love turning excellent design into beautiful products\n\nYou’re comfortable working in a team that deals with ambiguity\n\nYou have an understanding of the principles of computer science\n\n\n\nThe interview process\n\nOur interview process consists of a 45 min initial call video interview, a take-home code test followed by a 45 min video call with an engineer to discuss it, and 2 hours of final interviews conducted via video call as well. The final rounds consists:\n\n1h iOS technical\n\nYou'll meet 2 other iOS engineers. Together we'll go over some technical challenges we've faced as a company.

These include your experience in delivery, team work, coaching/mentoring and persuasion.\n\nAt each stage you'll have an opportunity to ask us questions about what life is like at Monzo. \n\nWe promise not to ask you any brain teasers or trick questions. We might design a solution together on a whiteboard, the same way we often work together, but we won’t make you write code on one.\n\n\nOur average process takes around 3-4 weeks but we will always work around your availability.

We strive to create an inclusive and diverse workplace where people can be themselves and succeed. \nOur story \nOakNorth Bank was built on the foundations of frustrations with old-school banking. In 2005, when our founders tried to get capital for their data analytics company, the computer said ‘no’. Unfortunately, all major banks in the UK were using the same computer – and it was broken.  \nWhy was it so difficult for a profitable business with impressive cashflow, retained clients, and clear commercial success to get a loan?  \nThe industry was backward-looking and too focused on historic financials, rather than future potential. \nSo, what if there was a bank, founded by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs? One that offered a dramatically better borrowing experience for businesses? \nNo more what ifs, OakNorth Bank exists.  \n\n\nFor more information regarding our Privacy Policy and practices, please visit: https://www.oaknorth.com/privacy-policy \n\n#Salary and compensation\n No salary data published by company so we estimated salary based on similar jobs related to Analyst, Design, SaaS, macOS, React, Testing, DevOps, Cloud and Digital Nomad jobs that are similar:\n\n $60,000 — $120,000/year\n
