Overview

Own the iOS heart of Yuhmmy — the social audiovisual app where taste, flavor, and social expression meet AI and XR. You will build end-to-end: native experiences on the front, real-time media and AI services behind them.

Mission

Yuhmmy is Labs' flagship consumer brand — a Tastertainment™ platform amplifying how humans discover, share, and celebrate taste. This role turns frontier XR and AI capability into something millions will hold in their hands.

What you'll do

  • Design and ship core iOS surfaces in Swift/SwiftUI — feed, capture, playback, and social layers
  • Integrate ARKit/RealityKit experiences (Taste Effects™, characters, spatial overlays) into everyday flows
  • Build the audiovisual pipeline: capture, encode, stream, and sync with AVFoundation, Metal, and WebRTC
  • Bring on-device and served AI into the product with CoreML plus Labs model services
  • Own full-stack slices — GraphQL APIs, Node.js services, PostgreSQL data models
  • Set the engineering bar: reviews, profiling, crash-free releases, App Store excellence

Minimum qualifications

  • 6+ years shipping production iOS apps, with at least one at consumer scale
  • Deep Swift plus modern SwiftUI; comfort dropping to UIKit and Metal when it matters
  • Real-time audio/video experience (AVFoundation, codecs, streaming)
  • Full-stack fluency: designing and operating APIs and services you consume

Preferred qualifications

  • ARKit/RealityKit or other spatial-computing production work
  • On-device ML deployment (CoreML, quantization, latency budgets)
  • WebRTC or low-latency social/media systems at scale

Nice to have

  • Creator-tool or camera-app background
  • Haptics and sensory UX curiosity
  • Startup zero-to-one scars
