About Us

Blueprint is a software talent agency that builds and places high-caliber engineers directly into product teams at fast-growing tech companies.

Our engineers are trusted to think, decide, execute—and most importantly—own outcomes. Clients come to us when quality, speed, and judgment matter more than headcount.

We operate globally and remotely, with a strong bias toward autonomy and accountability.

Were looking for people who thrive in fast-paced startup environments and take initiative and ownership while working closely with our partners.

Core Requirements

• 7+ years of experience
• Proven ownership of iOS architecture in production (not just features)
• Deep expertise in Swift, iOS SDKs, app lifecycle, memory management, and performance
• Strong architectural judgment (e.g. MVVM, TCA, Clean Architecture) and the ability to explain why a choice fits the product stage
• Know when and when not to use AI to boost coding output
• Experience leading large initiatives such as major refactors, migrations, or platform rebuilds
• Comfort operating in ambiguity—turning loose product ideas into shippable systems
• High code quality bar with pragmatic tradeoffs for speed vs. correctness
• Ability to influence technical direction across mobile, backend, and product
• Experience mentoring senior engineers through code review and design discussions
• Solid grasp of modern iOS tooling: async/await, Combine, SwiftUI, etc.

About You

• You have an entrepreneurial mindset and enjoy the challenge of working in an agile, startup environment
• You think in systems, not screens
• Youve seen what happens when codebases scale badly—and know how to prevent it
• You dont need heavy process to be effective, but you can introduce structure when its actually useful
• Youre comfortable saying this is the wrong solution and defending that position
• You communicate clearly with non-iOS engineers, designers, and founders
• Youve likely worked at early-stage or fast-growing startups (2->10 or 10->100), or operated with equivalent ownership
• You are self-motivated, proactive, and take pride in writing clean, maintainable code

How We Operate

• Our clients are primarily based in the U.S.
• We generally require 2–3 hours of overlap with the Los Angeles time zone
• Most clients are comfortable working with offshore teams and async or round-the-clock schedules
• We hire talented, passionate people from all backgrounds and are committed to maintaining a diverse, thoughtful culture
• We believe in compensating our people well, doing our best work, and prioritizing quality of life

Our Culture

• Love what you do, and do what you love
• High trust, high ownership, low ego
• Minimal meetings, strong async communication
• Everyone is expected to care about the business—not just their function
• Be authentic. Being yourself is a game changer.
