About the role

Humbly Confident Senior iOS Engineer

Application Deadline: 7 June 2026

Department: Engineering

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Remote

Compensation: $145,000 - $190,000 / year


Description

We’re YNAB (“why-nab”), a product company with a mission: to help people get good at money so they never worry about money again. For over 20 years, YNAB has been changing lives—and people can’t stop telling their friends about it. Think: debt paid off, marriages strengthened, goals achieved, stress erased, and sleep finally restored. But don’t just take our word for it—dive into our vibrant communities on Facebook, Instagram, and Reddit (really!) or skim through our glowing app reviews. You’ll quickly see why people rave about YNAB and why we’re so passionate about creating something that truly changes lives for the better. 

Join us! YNAB’s software ecosystem includes apps for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Android phones, and web. We have some big plans for our iOS app, and that’s where you come in! You’ll help us build easy and joyful consumer‑facing experiences across the entire Apple ecosystem, while working with modern Swift tools, thoughtfully shared logic, a nice CI/CD pipeline, and plenty of room to ship impactful things. If this resonates with you, you’re our target audience—please read on.
For this role, you must:
  • Live in the United States, in Mountain, Central, or Eastern Time. (Or able to work Mountain hours if you’re in Pacific Time.)
  • Be authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship or employer participation in an immigration-related work authorization process, now or in the future.
  • Have at least five years of professional software development experience.
  • Have at least three years of experience writing native iOS apps.
  • Have experience with Swift, SwiftUI, UIKit, Xcode & Instruments, and XCTest / XCUITest.
  • Be confident and curious about using AI to do your job better, while knowing what is not worth outsourcing.
These aren’t required, but are likely to set you up for success:
  • Experience with SQL, Kotlin, and/or JavaScript / TypeScript.
  • Experience with OCR technologies or frameworks.
  • Experience working on cross-functional teams with fullstack and/or Android engineers, product managers, and designers.
Note: If you believe you’re a fit for this role, but don’t meet our preferred qualifications, we still encourage you to apply. While our hard requirements are non-negotiable, we’re otherwise open-minded, and don’t need you to be the “perfect” candidate on paper.

That’s a quick snapshot of what we’re looking for. Before we go further, let’s make sure you’re excited about working with us. We’ll share more about YNAB, then dive into the role details and application process (be sure to read all the way to the end!).
YNAB started in 2004 and we haven’t taken any outside funding—we’re established, profitable, and in this for the long haul. We have one overarching requirement when it comes to joining our team: our original Core Value Manifesto has to really click with you. If you’re nodding emphatically while reading it, you’ll probably really like it here!

We live our Core Values every day at YNAB, and we mean it when we say we are an equal-opportunity employer. We believe that a diversity of backgrounds, abilities, beliefs, and experiences is critical to our success, and we are passionate about creating a welcoming, supportive, and collaborative environment for all employees. All are encouraged to apply as we continue to grow a smart, hard-working, and diverse team that loves working together to build something that matters.

We also work really hard, together, to make working at YNAB an amazing experience, and we’re (humbly) proud to have received many of Fortune’s “great place to work” awards over the last several years, including #1 two years in a row! We have a team full of truly exceptional people—the kind you’ll be excited to work with. 
Our Engineering team is about 45 people strong, including a tight-knit group of eight iOS developers. We operate in cross-functional teams, so you’ll get to work with awesome people from all
