About the job

Company:

SimpleStudy is a consumer AI platform for students.

We help them stay motivated to study their subjects - everything from Biology and Mathematics to Literature and Art.

Our small team has already helped +1.5 M students worldwide (UK, Ireland, Brazil, South Africa, and Australia) study better, and ~40–50k new students join us every week.

We are a remote team with a Lisbon office, having recently raised ~$4M seed round with incredible investors from Strava, OpenAI, and Meta.

Responsibilities and key results:

Own the mobile app end-to-end — architecture, performance, release process, and roadmap — without needing the problem framed in advance
Partner directly with Affan on engineering strategy and with Oisin on product direction where mobile intersects with growth, onboarding, and retention
Drive native-feel polish: smooth animations, responsive interactions, platform-specific conventions (iOS/Android)
Work in a PLG/A/B testing environment — ship features, instrument, measure impact, iterate fast
Own app store presence and release cadence — versioning, store optimization, crash/performance monitoring
Potentially help grow a dedicated mobile team as the app becomes a bigger part of the business

Requirements:

At least 5 years of experience with native iOS development
Proficiency in Swift
Proven experience building and shipping consumer-grade iOS applications
Experience with SwiftUI and UIKit
Familiarity with iOS frameworks and tools such as Combine, push notifications, and
