Senior iOS Engineer, Community Builders

The Community Builders organization’s mission lies at the core of Reddit's success as a platform. Our vision is for Reddit to be the best place to start and grow a community, where everyone can help build a space to connect with others. Our goal is to bridge the gap from a user's initial intent to a thriving community. We focus on creating joyful, low-effort, and modern experiences, ensuring that community building feels energizing rather than taxing. By offering opinionated, actionable guidance, we empower builders to successfully navigate the journey of their subreddit's life.

We are seeking a talented iOS Engineer to join our team. You'll be a key contributor to building and enhancing our products, developing features from end to end, and ensuring our systems are scalable, reliable, and serve community builder needs. This role requires a passion for tackling complex challenges in a fast paced nimble environment.

• →Design, develop, and maintain full-stack applications and services while ensuring the performance, security, and scalability of our systems..
• →Work collaboratively with product managers, designers, data scientists and other engineers to deliver high-quality products.
• →Contribute to the full development cycle: technical design, development, test, experimentation, analysis, and launch. You’ll be reviewing code and design docs, giving feedback on product specs and mocks.
• →Set and define standards that improve developer workflows, recommend best practices, and help coach and mentor engineers on the team to further their professional development.
• →Continuously learn and improve your technical and non-technical abilities.

• 5+ years of hands-on iOS experience. You have a proven track record of developing user-facing iOS mobile native applications at scale using Swift.
• A strategic partner, not just a technologist. You've steered cross-team projects that solved tangible business problems (like increasing watch time or DAU), rather than just hitting a 'ship' date. You see how the code, the product, and the team dynamics all influence each other.
• Deeply data-informed and logical. You ensure metrics are part of the design process, not just an afterthought in a dashboard. Your architectural directions are traceable back to product and business outcomes, and you’re fluent in the language of experimentation, funnels, and QoE metrics.
• Comfortable with growth-team ambiguity. You navigate ambiguity with confidence when the goal is clear but the path is not. You’re comfortable with growth-team speed—prototyping fast, moving on when the data doesn’t back a bet, and keeping the team focused when the plan changes.
• A focus on clear, transparent communication. You can effectively distill complex technical trade-offs for any audience—whether you’re collaborating on a whiteboard with peers or presenting a roadmap review to executive stakeholders.
