JOB DESCRIPTION

We know that people want great value combined with an excellent experience from a bank they can trust, so we launched our digital bank, Chase UK, to revolutionise mobile banking with seamless journeys that our customers love. We’re already trusted by millions in the US and we’re quickly catching up in the UK – but how we do things here is a little different. We’re building the bank of the future from scratch, channelling our start-up mentality every step of the way – meaning you’ll have the opportunity to make a real impact.
As an iOS Engineer in Nutmeg, at JPMorgan Chase within the International Consumer Bank , you will work on enhancing and maintaining the existing native iOS application, which now has over 100,000 monthly active users and a crash free rate of 99.99%. The app currently supports a minimum version of 14 allowing us to consistently innovate and make use of the latest in Swift technologies such as SwiftUI and Combine. We currently have a single iOS application, a home screen widget extension, and integration with the Chase UK app which will continue to be evolved.
Our iOS team is at the heart of this venture, focused on getting smart ideas into the hands of our customers. We’re looking for people who have a curious mindset, thrive in collaborative squads, and are passionate about new technology. By their nature, our people are also solution-oriented, commercially savvy and have a head for fintech. We work in tribes and squads that focus on specific products and projects – and depending on your strengths and interests, you’ll have the opportunity to move between them.
While we’re looking for professional skills, culture is just as important to us. We understand that everyone’s unique – and that diversity of thought, experience and background is what makes a good team, great. By bringing people with different points of view together, we can represent everyone and truly reflect the communities we serve. This way, there’s scope for you to make a huge difference – on us as a company, and on our clients and business partners around the world
