Member of Technical Staff (iOS Engineer, Computer Growth)

Join Perplexity as a Member of Technical Staff (iOS Engineer, Computer Growth). In this role, you will work across the full mobile funnel, leading end-to-end projects and experiments. You will design, build, and own growth surfaces on iOS, optimize app store performance, and partner closely with various teams. The ideal candidate has 3+ years of professional mobile engineering experience, strong native skills, and a genuine interest in AI products.

Deep experience with in-app payments

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and own growth surfaces across the mobile funnel on iOS, including install, activation, onboarding, lifecycle, conversion, retention, and paid upgrade moments.
• Lead experiments end-to-end, from hypothesis and instrumentation through implementation, analysis, and rollout, shipping many in parallel despite app release cadence.
• Own in-app purchase and paywall surfaces, including billing integrations, subscription and credit purchase flows, entitlement correctness, and pricing and packaging experiments.
• Strong product judgment; you translate user behavior and growth opportunities into simple, effective technical solutions
• Comfort data-informed decision-making — you can pull, segment, and interpret your own funnel data
• Strong execution: you ship many experiments and product improvements in parallel and drive them to a clear outcome
• Experience owning a full release cycle: build and release tooling, phased rollouts, store review, crash and regression monitoring, and rolling back safely
• Strong native skills (eg. Swift/SwiftUI/Objective-C) — and the willingness to flex into other parts of the stack to unblock yourself and others
• Self-motivated with strong ownership instincts; you propose experiments, ship features ahead of schedule, and drive improvements without asking for permission

Requirements

• Familiarity with A/B testing and experimentation platforms (Eppo, Statsig, Optimizely, or in-house equivalents) especially inside a versioned app
• 3+ years of professional mobile engineering experience shipping consumer apps at meaningful scale on iOS
• Genuine interest and adoption of AI products and willingness to learn quickly
• Experience with mobile attribution and measurement stacks (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch) and paid mobile acquisition
• ASO experience, including store listing experiments and localized metadata
• Comfort reaching into the backend or web stack to unblock yourself end-to-end

Preferred

• Time spent at a fast-growing startup or on a high-ownership engineering team
