iOS Engineer

Company : Substack
Location : San Francisco, CA, 94102
Posted Date : 15 September 2025
Job Details
Substack is building a new economic engine for culture, giving the brightest, most interesting, and most creative people on the internet the power of their own publishing platform. The terms of our culture should not be set by gate-keeping legacy media or chaos-fueling social media, but by the people who make and participate in that culture. Substack's model, based on direct subscriptions, has fueled an explosion of independent publishing. It empowers creators with economic autonomy, creative ownership, and a direct connection to their most engaged audiences.
As a member of our engineering team, you will be responsible for building and supporting features to bring readers and writers to Substack and help them succeed here. iOS Engineers work in close partnership with designers, product thinkers, and customers directly to build out new mobile offerings and tooling across the platform. iOS engineers are on the front-lines of product development and are responsible for creating what's next for Substack!
Responsibilities
- Develop the core Substack iOS app in Swift for creators and their audiences.
- Iterate on key user flows in the Substack iOS App, and run A/B tests on these flows.
- Collaborate with designers, writers, support staff, and many others. From product concept and research to implementation and deployment, we expect you to own your work and deliver high-quality solutions.
- Work directly with customers to solve their problems. The entire company (CEO included) participates in customer support in order to drive empathy for our users and help us build better products.
- At least 5 years of software engineering experience.
- Experience shipping high quality iOS apps to the App Store.
- Independent and autonomous. We're too small to micromanage, and expect that every person at the company owns their work and can be a leader.
- Hold yourself and others to a high standard when working on production systems.
- Take pride in building elegant and delightful product experiences. Substack works best when it gets out of the way so creators can focus on writing and connecting with their readers.
- Enjoy collaboration with a diverse group of thinkers while bringing our own unique experience and background to the team.
- Believe in Substack's mission to build a better business model for writing.
- Experience at a fast-growing startup or working on a high-performing growth team is not required, but is a plus.
