Rightpoint is seeking a Senior iOS Architect to lead the design and development of mobile experiences using Apple’s latest technologies. This hands-on technical leadership role involves shaping iOS architecture across client engagements, driving innovation with Apple Intelligence, on-device ML, MFi hardware integrations, and agentic AI-driven experiences while collaborating with cross-functional teams in a remote-first consulting environment.
What You'll Do
- Lead iOS architecture and technical strategy across multiple client engagements, making critical decisions on system design, data flow, API contracts, and deployment patterns
- Design, develop, and maintain native iOS applications using Swift, SwiftUI and standard Apple frameworks
- Architect experiences that leverage Apple Intelligence, on-device ML (Core ML, Create ML), and integrate with Siri and App Intents for agentic, context-aware user experiences
- Lead hardware and IoT integrations using Core Bluetooth (BLE), NFC, ARKit, DriverKit, and MFi accessories frameworks—connecting iPhones and iPads to certified devices, sensors, and peripherals
- Collaborate directly with UX/UI designers working in Figma, bridging design intent to pixel-perfect, performant implementations with shared design tokens and component libraries
- Collaborate with product owners, designers, and backend teams to deliver high-quality mobile features aligned with business requirements
- Write clean, maintainable, testable code and participate in code reviews
- Implement and maintain application architecture, including dependency management and networking layers
- Drive engineering excellence—CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, modular architecture, and developer tooling
- Troubleshoot performance issues, identify root causes, and implement robust solutions
- Interpret technical requirements with some ambiguity and deliver work autonomously
- Follow Agile best practices, participating in sprint ceremonies as needed
- Evaluate and recommend cross-platform strategies (React Native, Expo) when project scope, timeline, or business requirements favor a shared codebase—while ensuring iOS quality standards are never compromised
What We're Looking For
- 8+ years of professional iOS development experience, with a strong portfolio of shipped, production-grade native applications
- Deep expertise in Swift, SwiftUI, and modern Apple frameworks (Combine, Swift Concurrency, Observation, SwiftData)
- Proven experience as a technical lead or architect on large-scale, multi-team iOS projects
- Strong understanding of app architecture patterns and when to apply
- Experience with hardware integrations: BLE (Core Bluetooth), NFC, MFi program, DriverKit, accessories frameworks, or IoT device communication
- Comfort navigating and modernizing legacy Objective-C codebases alongside modern Swift
- Hands-on experience with CI/CD for iOS and automated testing strategies
- Excellent communication skills—you can present architectural decisions to both technical peers and non-technical stakeholders with equal confidence
- A collaborative, team-first mindset with a passion for mentoring and growing other developers
Nice to Have
- Experience building with Apple Intelligence, App Intents, SiriKit, or on-device ML (Core ML, Create ML, Vision, Natural Language)
- Exposure to agentic AI patterns—designing systems where LLMs, intelligent agents, or AI-driven workflows enhance mobile app experiences
- Familiarity with Figma’s developer handoff workflows, design tokens, and Figma-to-code tooling for bridging design and engineering
- Experience in consulting, agency, or multi-client environments where adaptability and speed are essential
- Track record working in regulated industries (financial services, healthcare, government) with secure coding practices and compliance requirements
- Contributions to open-source iOS projects or speaking at iOS/Apple developer conferences
- Cross-platform development experience using React Native and Expo—shipping production apps with shared codebases while maintaining native-quality UX
- Next.js and React development experience, enabling full-stack contributions and tight alignment with web engineering teams
- Experience with additional cross-platform frameworks (KMP, Flutter) and a clear perspective on when native is the right answer
