- Design and integrate intuitive user interactions, including gestures (taps, swipes, drags), animations, and transitions that enhance the app’s “feel.”
- Ensure responsive layouts that adapt seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, and other Apple devices.
- Optimize UI for performance, accessibility (e.g., VoiceOver compatibility), and adherence to Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines (HIG).
- Build and maintain reusable UI components and libraries to streamline development.
- Troubleshoot and resolve UI-related bugs or performance issues.
- Stay up-to-date with the latest iOS development trends, tools, and frameworks to continuously improve our apps.
You have
- Proficiency in Swift and hands-on experience with UIKit and/or SwiftUI.
- Strong understanding of UI/UX principles and a keen eye for detail in translating designs into code.
- Experience with Xcode’s Interface Builder and/or programmatic UI design approaches.
- Familiarity with gesture recognizers, event handling, and Core Animation for creating smooth, engaging interactions.
- Ability to work collaboratively with Product Designers and other team members to iterate on UI designs.
- Solid problem-solving skills and attention to detail for delivering polished, high-quality interfaces.
- Knowledge of iOS accessibility features and best practices.
- Strong communication and teamwork abilities.
- Must be a resident of Canada and be eligible to work in Canada
- Ability to work during Pacific Time Zone regular business hours
- Flexible to attend remote meetings during the evening when required.
Nice-to-Haves
