Staff iOS Engineer – Social Mobile Apps

Requirements

• Deep, hands-on expertise in the iOS ecosystem: Swift, SwiftUI/UIKit, Xcode, App Store lifecycle, this is non-negotiable

• Demonstrated ability to lead technically: guiding other engineers, driving architecture decisions, and being a natural reference point for the team
• A genuine mobile-wide technical culture: even as an iOS specialist, you can hold your own in a conversation with Android engineers, understand shared constraints (performance, architecture, product parity), and enjoy connecting the dots across the mobile ecosystem, at Dailymotion and beyond

• Comfortable operating cross-functionally, collaborating closely with Android, Backend, QA, Design and Product to keep the product experience coherent end to end
• Strong communication skills: you can influence and align people without needing formal authority
• Fluent in English / French is a plus

• Expertise in streaming video, media frameworks, and real-time content delivery
• Experience with AI/ML integration in mobile applications
• Experience with A/B testing frameworks and conversion optimization
