Senior iOS Engineer

• We are seeking a Senior iOS Engineer to join our Growth Retention & Monetization team. You will be the iOS technical owner for the team across the Everand and Scribd apps, and lead the subscription, paywall, and retention features that drive revenue
• You will build in-app purchase flows with StoreKit, ship A/B experiments, and partner with backend, web, and Android engineers on shared subscription systems. You will also improve app stability, pay down technical debt, and mentor the engineers around you
• Our iOS Engineering team plays a pivotal role in enhancing the experience of our 2 million subscribers through two key iOS apps: Everand and Scribd. The Everand app is a gateway for our users to access an expansive library of over 7 million titles, including ebooks, audiobooks, podcasts, and magazine articles, offering a Netflix-like experience. Meanwhile, the Scribd app provides access to an extensive collection of over 100 million user-uploaded documents, including PDFs and other formats

The Retention & Monetization team focuses on conversion flows, subscription management, and retention experiences that maximize long-term value for our users.

Our work ties directly to revenue and retention
