ABOUT OUR TEAM

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 Growth organization drives user engagement and business impact across the customer journey. The Retention & Monetization team focuses on conversion flows, subscription management, and retention experiences that maximize long-term value for our users. On mobile, that means we own how people start, manage, and keep their subscriptions: paywalls, in-app purchases, plan changes, cancellation and save flows, and the experiments behind them. Our work ties directly to revenue and retention.

ABOUT THE ROLE

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.
