Hire Swift app developers who build for the platform, not around it.
Swift and SwiftUI development for apps that need to feel like Apple built them, engineers who profile battery and memory in Instruments before shipping, not after a one-star review flags it, and who know the App Store review process well enough not to lose a week to it.
Native interfaces built against Apple's own patterns, not a cross-platform approximation.
Instruments-profiled memory, battery, and launch-time work before it ships, not after.
Widgets, Live Activities, StoreKit, and push, integrated the way Apple actually intends.
TestFlight betas and review-compliant submissions that don't stall in review.
What strong Swift App Developers know cold.

Hiring for something adjacent?
Answered before you ask.
SwiftUI by default for new work; it's faster to build and maintain. We drop into UIKit where SwiftUI still has real gaps, complex custom transitions, some collection view behaviors, or when we're extending an existing UIKit codebase rather than rewriting it.
By not triggering them in the first place where we can help it, entitlements, privacy manifests, and metadata checked against Apple's current guidelines before submission. When a rejection does happen, we've been through the appeal process enough times to resolve it in days, not weeks.
Yes. These are common asks and a normal part of the role, not a specialist add-on. We scope them alongside the core app rather than as an afterthought once the phone app is done.
Yes. Most engagements are incremental, new features in Swift, interoperating cleanly with the existing Objective-C via the bridging header, rather than a risky full rewrite up front.
Every way out of this hire is already written down.
Not a fit? Replace anyone in the first two weeks. No questions asked, no replacement fee. We re-match from the same vetted pool.
You pay only for engineers who actually start. Seeing candidates costs nothing.
Dedicated and managed engagements run on a monthly rolling contract. Cancel with notice.
You see the number before you commit. Nothing is added on top of it later.
Bring us the iOS build. Three matched engineers in 48 hours.
A new app, a stuck App Store submission, or a UIKit codebase due for SwiftUI, tell us the shape of it and we'll scope the real timeline.
We reply within an hour during our working day in India and the UAE.
