Katapult is a nearshore software development agency that combines the best talent in LATAM, with world-class execution and leadership experience, with an AI-first approach to product engineering. Katapult works with PMF+ startups and businesses in the United States with a team-augmentation model. That means we either become or augment their current product engineering team.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are building a premium, membership-based investment platform, a product where the experience must feel fast, clean, and world-class. We are looking for a Mobile Experience Engineer with an iOS-first, native mindset who cares deeply about how things feel, not just that they work. This role is hands-on, AI-augmented, and ideal for someone who blends strong engineering fundamentals with sharp product taste. What doesn't matter is deep specialization in a specific framework or years of experience for the sake of it; what matters is how you build and how you think. You'll be joining a small, high-caliber team with high ownership and low bureaucracy, where quality and speed matter equally and you'll collaborate directly with product and design, with no layers in between.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build a high quality, native first iOS experience for a premium investment platform.

• Craft pixel perfect UI and smooth, thoughtful interactions across the app.

• Ship real features end-to-end, including authentication, transactions, and data flows.

• Iterate quickly using modern AI coding tools and workflows.

• Contribute across mobile and web when needed to support product velocity.

• Collaborate closely with product and design to refine and elevate the user experience.

REQUIREMENTS

• Advanced conversational English proficiency. Daily communication, meetings, and collaboration happen in English

• Proven experience shipping real mobile apps (iOS-first preferred).

• Strong taste in UI/UX, including spacing, motion, and visual clarity.

• Solid skills building clean, reliable integrations with APIs.

• Comfort moving fast, iterating, and operating with high ownership.

• Strong written and verbal communication in English.

NICE-TO-HAVE

• Experience with payments, subscriptions, or fintech products.

• Frontend or web development experience.

• Familiarity with modern AI-assisted coding workflows (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.).
