Our mission is simple: to motivate people to live their best active lives. We believe in the power of movement to connect and drive people forward.

About This Role

We're looking for a Senior iOS Engineer to join Strava for Business — the team behind sponsored challenges, brand partnerships, and other revenue-generating products that help fund Strava's mission. You'd be the sole iOS engineer on a seven-person engineering team, which means real ownership: you set the iOS direction, work directly with XFN partners, and see your work reach millions of athletes.

You'll also be plugged into Strava's broader iOS community — 20+ engineers, shared architecture reviews, pair programming, and an active iOS guild. This is the team behind the #1 fitness app and the 2025 Apple Watch App of the Year.

What You’ll Do:

• Own iOS on Strava for Business — set the technical direction and ship features that reach millions of athletes

• Build and improve the Challenges product alongside the top brands in the world, including new capabilities nobody's tried

• Work closely with product and design to ship polished features in small, deliberate increments

• Mentor engineers through code reviews and pair programming, and set the bar for iOS quality on across the company

• Use AI tools to find faster, smarter ways to build and ship software

We follow a flexible hybrid model that translates to more than half of your time on-site in our San Francisco office — typically three days per week.

What You’ll Bring to the Team:

• 7+ years of iOS engineering experience, with deep fluency in SwiftUI and UIKit — and enough Objective-C to get by

• Strong mobile architecture instincts — you think about scalability before it becomes a problem

• Experience building sophisticated iOS components: custom animations, gesture systems, and interaction patterns that feel native and polished

• The ability to translate complex product requirements into clear technical plans

• Good product instincts and design sense — you know when something isn't quite right and can articulate why

• A track record of using data to make decisions and bring others along

• A kaizen mindset — you give and receive direct feedback, and leave every codebase and team better than you found them
