We are looking for talented iOS Software Engineers to build and evolve our mobile applications that power BJAK’s insurance and financial products. You will also contribute to features that leverage automation and AI-assisted capabilities where they improve user experience and operational efficiency.

This is a fully remote position where you will be part of a global engineering team working across multiple countries to build reliable, scalable mobile systems.

What You’ll Own

• Build and ship iOS features using Swift.

• Create clean mobile flows for insurance, payments, claims, renewals and financial services.

• Work with product and design to simplify complex user journeys.

• Integrate backend APIs and ensure mobile flows are stable and reliable.

• Improve performance, crash rate, loading states, responsiveness, memory usage and battery efficiency.

• Use analytics, user behaviour and production issues to improve the product.

• Build AI-assisted mobile experiences only where they genuinely improve the user journey.

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of iOS development experience using Swift.

• Strong iOS fundamentals and experience shipping production apps.

• Good knowledge of SwiftUI, UIKit, async/await and iOS architecture patterns.

• Strong sense of mobile UX, usability, edge cases and user flows.

• Experience integrating REST APIs and debugging production issues.

• Fast execution, high ownership and strong attention to product quality.

• App links, GitHub, screenshots or examples of shipped work are a strong advantage.

Tech Stack

• Kotlin / Java

• Android Jetpack (ViewModel, Compose / XML-based UI where applicable)

• Coroutines / Flow

• RESTful APIs

• SQL / NoSQL databases

• Optional: TensorFlow Lite / on-device ML frameworks

The Kind of Builder We Want

• Thinks in user journeys, not just screens.

• Cares about making complex products feel simple.

• Moves fast without creating messy code.

• Comfortable with ambiguity and changing requirements.

• Notices UX, performance and reliability issues before users complain.

• Honest about what they personally built, what was team-owned and what impact they can or cannot claim.

This Role Is Not For

• Engineers who only want fully defined tickets.

• Developers who build screens without caring about user experience.

• People who ignore crashes, edge cases, loading states or performance.

• Engineers who move slowly in a startup environment.

• People who exaggerate impact without explaining their actual contribution.

Success Looks Like

• iOS features ship fast and reliably.

• The app becomes simpler, faster and easier to use.

• Users can complete financial journeys with less confusion.

• Production issues reduce over time.

• BJAK builds one of the cleanest finance app experiences in Malaysia.

Interview Process

The process has 3 rounds:

1. Online Coding Assessment
   We assess coding fundamentals, problem-solving and code quality.

2. Technical Interview
   We assess iOS fundamentals, architecture, API integration, debugging, UX thinking and production-quality engineering.

3. CEO Round
   We assess ownership, speed, ambition, honesty, judgement and fit with BJAK’s builder culture.

Please share links to apps, GitHub, screenshots or shipped work where possible. We care more about real work, clear ownership and honest thinking than a formal cover letter.
