Start with the work

Find iOS experience for your next release

Match the codebase and the work ahead

A SwiftUI feature, an established UIKit app and an Objective-C migration require different experience. Share your current architecture, supported devices and delivery priorities. Review comparable production work to choose the engineer who fits your team.

Plan changes around the user experience

SwiftUI and UIKit can coexist in an application. For upgrades or migrations, discuss what should change and what must keep working. Include accessibility, data handling, networking and regression coverage in the brief.

Clarify ownership beyond implementation

If the developer owns TestFlight, App Store submissions or crash investigation, include those requirements. Review testing, signing, privacy-related implementation and release monitoring experience. Confirm account access and approval responsibilities; store acceptance is not guaranteed.
