About the Role

This is a role based in India, working closely with Epic's US engineering team and the wider global team.
What You'll Do
- Own and evolve Epic's native iOS app across iPhone and iPad -- a large, established Swift and Objective-C codebase
- Own the reading experience -- the in-house book renderer and audio-text sync (narration aligned to word-level highlighting)
- Own offline reading, in-app purchases, and the App Store release pipeline
- Drive the app's performance, stability, and quality
- Partner with Epic's Android engineer and the backend and web teams on shared features
- Grow into a cross-platform mobile engineer over time, ramping into Android/Kotlin to contribute across both apps
What We're Looking For
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years building and shipping native iOS apps to the App Store
- Strong Swift and UIKit, and comfort working across a mixed Swift and Objective-C codebase
- Proven depth in custom UI/text rendering and/or real-time media-audio synchronization (not only stock controls)
- Solid across the iOS app lifecycle -- concurrency and thread-safety, local persistence, in-app purchase, and owning a release pipeline (CI, code signing, TestFlight/App Store)
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience
Preferred Skills
- Familiarity with SwiftUI and Swift Concurrency (async/await)
- Familiarity with AVCadence for audio-text sync
- Experience with encrypted media playback
- Accessibility on a consumer or kids' product -- VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, WCAG
- Interest in cross-platform mobile, and some Android / Kotlin awareness
Why Join Epic?
At Epic, you'll have the opportunity to build products that inspire millions of kids to discover the joy of reading. You'll work alongside talented teammates across the globe, solve meaningful technical challenges, and help shape the future of digital learning for children.
