Description
Position at MVP Factory Technologies GmbH
Freelance Mobile Engineer (iOS-focused, Remote-first)
12-week engagement starting ASAP
We’re looking for a freelance Mobile Engineer to join a fast-moving B2B SaaS MVP build, focused on helping professionals grow their digital presence through data insights and content recommendations. You’ll work closely with a senior product team to bring a mobile-first experience to life — with an initial focus on iOS.
The foundation for the app is already shaped through a validated design prototype. Now, we’re entering build mode, and need someone who can own implementation end to end — from architecture and component setup to delivery and testing.
What You’ll Do
- Take ownership of the iOS app implementation from scratch (working from a fully fleshed-out Figma prototype).
- Collaborate with the backend/AI engineer to integrate APIs and ensure data is surfaced reliably in the frontend.
- Help evaluate technical trade-offs (e.g., when to build native vs. shared logic, what’s reusable for future Android versions).
- Build clean, maintainable, scalable code — keeping future extensibility in mind (e.g., Android or web in later phases).
- Support regular demo builds and client handovers with a working, stable app.
Tech & Setup
- Tech stack: Flexible — Swift preferred, but we’re open to React Native or other cross-platform frameworks if it supports future portability
- Project: Cross-functional team of product, design, AI/backend, and delivery already in place
- Collaboration: Daily syncs, remote-first setup, Slack/Notion/GitHub workflow
- Timing: ~12 weeks (full-time preferred), starting immediately
What You Bring
- Proven experience building and shipping iOS apps, ideally from scratch
- Comfort working in cross-functional teams with product and design
- Solid understanding of API integration and state management in mobile environments
- Bonus: Experience with React Native, Flutter, or similar cross-platform tools
- Bonus: Understanding of data or AI-driven products
If you enjoy building clean, production-grade mobile apps with a collaborative and pragmatic team — and want to be involved in shaping a product from the ground up — we’d love to hear from you.
