The Opportunity
We're looking for an experienced iOS Engineer to join a high-performing Mobile Security team within a major banking environment. This team is responsible for delivering security capabilities across the mobile channel, providing a suite of security components and services that help protect mobile applications at scale.
You will play a key role in developing and enhancing security-focused mobile solutions, collaborating with engineering teams across the organisation to ensure mobile applications remain secure, scalable, and resilient against evolving threats.
This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer who enjoys building reusable mobile frameworks, SDKs, and high-quality iOS applications within a modern engineering environment.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain high-quality iOS applications, frameworks, and SDKs using Swift.
- Contribute to the development of reusable security components used across multiple mobile applications.
- Build scalable, modular solutions using modern architectural patterns such as MVVM.
- Collaborate with engineering teams to promote code reuse, improve developer experience, and reduce technical debt.
- Advocate engineering best practices including TDD, code reviews, pair programming, continuous integration, and automated testing.
- Ensure solutions are performant, maintainable, and thread-safe using modern Swift concurrency patterns.
- Partner with cross-functional teams to deliver secure and reliable mobile experiences.
- Support the continuous improvement of development processes, tooling, and application security standards.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
