Mobile Engineer (iOS/Swift)

About Vibecode

We're democratizing software creation. Our platform lets anyone describe an idea and instantly turn it into a working application—no coding required.

We're solving one of computing's fundamental challenges: bridging the gap between human intent and software execution. This requires breakthrough advances in AI reasoning, code generation, and user experience.

We've raised a large seed round from some of the best investors in the world including Alexis Ohanian (776), Arielle Zuckerberg and Cyan Banister (Long Journey), Ali Partovi and Suzanne Xie (Neo), and a whole host of amazing angels who are leaders at Google, Expo, OpenAI, etc.

About the Role

Want to be at the forefront of making easy-to-use consumer AI agents? This is the perfect role for you.

• Design and implement smooth, engaging animations that guide users through the app creation process

• Create intuitive touch interactions and gestures for describing, editing, and refining software ideas

• Optimize performance for real-time AI interactions and live app previews on mobile devices

• Ship high-quality code fast while maintaining exceptional user experience standards

• Collaborate closely with designers and AI engineers to bring cutting-edge interactions to life
