Senior iOS Engineer (Swift) - SumUp Pay

Location: London, United Kingdom Team: Consumer
Team description

The Consumer team builds and maintains SumUp Pay - a regulated consumer banking app spanning payments, card management, savings, and open banking, used by hundreds of thousands of customers every day. We're a cross-functional squad of engineers, product managers, and designers working at pace on a product that genuinely matters to the people who rely on it. Right now, we're growing our iOS function to match the ambition of our product roadmap - and this role sits at the heart of that.

As an iOS Engineer, you'll own meaningful parts of the SumUp Pay experience end-to-end, from onboarding and KYC flows through to savings features and in-app messaging. With a lean iOS team and a growing product surface, there's real scope to shape how we build - not just what we build.
What you'll do

• Design, build, and ship iOS features across SumUp Pay - including KYC and card activation flows, savings, open banking consent, and payment experiences
• Take ownership of performance monitoring, crash reporting, and app stability, proactively resolving issues before they reach customers
• Contribute to the evolution of our iOS architecture - including modularisation, dependency management, and scalability as the product grows
• Partner with the CRM Manager to implement in-app messaging (modals and banners) via Iterable, ensuring correct event instrumentation and display logic on iOS
• Write clean, testable Swift code and contribute actively to code reviews, CI/CD pipeline health, and a culture of quality across the team

You'll be great for this role if...

• Strong proficiency in Swift and the iOS framework, with a track record of shipping consumer-facing features in a product environment.
• Experience integrating RESTful APIs and collaborating closely with backend engineers on API design and contracts.
• Solid understanding of iOS architecture patterns, modularisation, and writing maintainable, well-tested code.
• Comfort working in a regulated or fintech environment, with an appreciation for the security, compliance, and data privacy considerations that come with it.
• A product-oriented mindset - someone who thinks about the user journey, not just the implementation, and brings both craft and pragmatism to technical decisions.
