Description

We are looking for a highly skilled iOS/tvOS Developer to join our team and take a leading role in building and enhancing our OTT video streaming applications. Your primary responsibility will be to develop and optimize a custom video player experience for both iOS and tvOS, leveraging AVPlayer and related media frameworks. You will collaborate closely with product, design, and backend engineering teams to deliver a seamless, high-performance user experience.

What you'll be doing:

Design, develop, and maintain OTT streaming applications for iOS and tvOS using Swift.
Build and optimize a custom AVPlayer-based video player, including playback controls, UI layers, gesture handling, and state management.
Implement features such as Multiview, DRM, subtitles/closed captions, adaptive bitrate streaming (HLS), and background playback.
Collaborate with UI/UX designers to create intuitive and visually polished user interfaces.
Integrate with backend APIs for content catalog, analytics, and player events.
Ensure high performance, low memory usage, and smooth playback on both iOS and tvOS devices.
Debug and resolve complex playback issues, buffering/latency problems, and platform-specific behaviors.
Write clean, maintainable code following best architectural practices.
Participate in code reviews and contribute to improving overall engineering standards.
Stay up to date with Apple platform updates, new APIs, and best practices.

What you'll bring:

5–7+ years of professional experience in Swift development.
Strong expertise with AVPlayer, AVFoundation, HLS streaming, and media playback architecture.
Proven experience building and releasing iOS and/or tvOS applications.
Solid understanding of UI frameworks (UIKit; SwiftUI is a plus).
Experience with performance optimization, memory profiling, and debugging tools (Instruments, Console, etc.).
Familiarity with REST APIs, JSON parsing, and networking frameworks (URLSession, Combine, etc.).
Experience implementing subtitles, DRM (FairPlay), and custom playback logic.
Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
