Superhuman is an AI productivity platform serving over 40 million users globally. The company integrates AI assistance across 1+ million applications and websites, with products including Mail (inbox management), Grammarly (writing assistance), Coda (collaborative workspaces), and Go (proactive AI assistant).
You will own the iOS mobile roadmap for Superhuman Mail alongside the Engineering Manager and Product Manager. Mobile is a critical growth channel—users who use both desktop and mobile activate and send at roughly 3x the rate of desktop-only users. This is a high-impact role where you'll shape both what the team builds and how they build it.
Key responsibilities:
- Identify and personally own the highest-complexity, highest-impact engineering initiatives spanning multiple teams
- Own the one-to-two-year technical vision for the mobile platform: architecture, technical foundations, and the roadmap of investments that keep the platform fast and reliable as it scales
- Partner with Product and Engineering Management to define product strategy grounded in deep user understanding, goals, and key metrics, then drive execution
- Mentor and coach senior engineers to grow in execution, judgment, and influence
- Drive alignment across functions, navigating ambiguity and organizational complexity to land the right outcomes
Superhuman offers a remote-flexible model with hybrid options available for those based in San Francisco, New York City, or Seattle. The company emphasizes a collaborative, tight-knit team culture with plenty of focus time.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 8+ years of experience in iOS development or related roles (full-stack experience working across clients and backend systems is a plus)
- Expertise in Swift, UIKit, SwiftUI, and iOS frameworks
- Track record of shipping high-quality, delightful mobile experiences
- Demonstrated ability to work independently, leading technical direction with limited guidance, managing priorities across multiple projects, and collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams
- Experience in 0-to-1 environments (early-stage or new-product work)
- Strong communication skills and demonstrated ability to mentor and support other engineers
- Fluency with AI coding tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) and a point of view on how they change the way teams build software
- Strong product instincts—care about end-user experience and ability to make good tradeoffs between speed and reliability
