👾 Engineering at Swile
Engineering at Swile is about building and maintaining the most reliable and scalable worktech platform to provide an amazing experience for our millions of users.
We are working on exciting projects that made unique the way people use employee benefits : 1001 ways to connect but only 1 app needed to pay, chat, network, praise, celebrate and bring out the best in teams. To be more concrete, our platform is made up of several applications and micro-services, each of which has its own database and API, all unified inside our mobile app and web app.
If you zoom into our technical stack, we are using Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Typescript, Node, React, Kotlin & Swift. But we believe an experienced developer can be programming in any (and many) languages, so don’t get shy if you don’t see your language of choice.
Our software engineering pipelines are powered by a CICD allowing us to deploy in production hundreds of times a day. Complementing all of this, we can rely on our strong cyber-security team.
We believe in tribes mode, the Engineering department (150+ people) is divided into feature teams spread over our 4 Tribes, one tribe for each scope of our product (Card, Connect, Affiliation & Core).
- Swile Card (Meal vouchers, gifts, mobility, travels... )
- Swile Connect (Social app, pulse surveys…) => You'll be here 📍
- Swile Affiliates (E-commerce and merchant platform)
- Swile Core (Security, payment, developper experience, platform)
Dispatched among these tribes, we have 12 feature teams and 11 transversal support teams of talented, committed, and passionate engineers organized in agile feature teams with a lot of product interaction. Each team can self-organize and adapt its rituals but typically they have daily stand-ups, grooming, and planning sessions, retrospectives, and demos. We promote guilds to allow communities of practice to gather and share, along with a real autonomy to drive this practice at Swile and decide on technological choices. We also have bi-weekly Inno Hands meetings where people can present on various tech topics related to their work at Swile or not.
Last but not least, we are in Montpellier and Paris but we can choose to work whenever we want in France or Europe in full remote like 70% of the engineering team.
😎 Your future position :
We are looking for iOS Developers in full remote, in Paris or in Montpellier! 🌈
You will join a team of 8 developers and participate in the construction and development of your technical team in order to achieve our challenging iOS roadmap 😉
Next to the team, you like to participate in transversal topics within the iOS Guild and lead with the rest of the iOS developers the discussions and directions to be taken to harmonize and keep the iOS application at the top level.
Your missions :
- Develop new functionalities using Swift, SwiftUI, RX or Combine
- Improved user experience (UX / UI) in collaboration with designers
- Maintenance and updating of the application
- Improve the collective performance of your team both technically (style, architecture, design) and human (collaboration, organization, etc.)
- Exchange with the different squads of the Tribe, build relevant monitoring metrics
- Participate in team meetings, agile ceremonies, and roadmap construction
- Ensure the consistency and homogeneity of cross-squad developments
- Taking part or/and leading the iOS guild (community of iOS developers).
🥇Your future team :
At Swile, developers are first and foremost engineers! Each engineer is expected to assume the role of Feature Owner and for his features, framed these 3 levels of needs:
- the product (in collaboration with the Product Manager)
- the design (in collaboration with the Designer)
- the tech architecture (in collaboration with stakeholders, team members or external).
You will join the Internal Communication Engineering Team, composed of multidisciplinary developers (3 devs fullstack TS, 1 dev Android + YOU, our future great iOS developer ❤️).
The team focuses on features around collaborators communication.
We work on a messaging app which is also integrated in lots of other features (like money pots, events or collaborators celebrations). Another example is the blog we provide for admin to share articles or documents to their collaborators.
Every quarter, we define a new roadmap for the three months to come (feature prioritization is done together with product and business team, knowing that 30% of our time is expected to be focus on technical improvement or debt management)
