At Lyft, our mission is to improve people’s lives with the world’s best transportation. To do this, we start with our own developer community by creating an open, inclusive, and diverse organization.

　　Lyft’s mobile infrastructure teams are responsible for creating & maintaining the foundational systems that engineers rely on in order to build stable, scalable, polished and efficient apps. We relentlessly focus on the developer experience by providing engineers with flexible frameworks that allows them to innovate rapidly on our user experience. We are looking for enthusiastic engineers with experience building tools for iOS to create fast, reliable infrastructure.

　　As a part of the UI & Architecture team at Lyft, you will be involved in creating the design system and our unidirectional architecture that all Engineers use to develop at Lyft. You will be part of a team that ensures quality across all facets of the app. As a qualified candidate, you have a record of leading projects to successful outcomes for users and the business. You are a strong cross-functional partner having worked closely with designers, a great communicator, and above all, you approach problems holistically as a unified system.

　　Who are you:

　　You're an enthusiastic and experienced app developer looking to use your iOS skills to create a consistent and predictable look & feel for all of our mobile products while improving developers' ability to ship new features quickly.

　　You get excited about new swift features and compile improvements.

　　You find delight in building the foundations and frameworks to accelerate the development by others, hiding away the complexities of the system.

　　You are a diplomat who looks at the landscape and aligns engineers from different teams around a common pattern

　　You’re excited about scaling millions of lines of Swift code and hundreds of mobile developers.

　　Our apps are used by millions of people, and we take great pride in our work. This means excellent development practices, careful code architecture, and an organization built around rapid releases.

　　Our codebase is written entirely in Swift with modern design patterns and coding standards. We rely on 3rd party libraries and contribute back to the community (including the Swift language itself).
