About this role
Sully.ai is focused on revolutionizing healthcare by providing better access to doctors. They are seeking a Head of Engineering for their iOS platform to lead engineering execution, improve performance, and enhance user experience.
Responsibilities:
- Own end-to-end engineering execution for iOS, from architecture and roadmap through delivery and reliability
- Drive step-function performance improvements, targeting at least 50% reductions in app launch time, memory usage, and crash rates
- Design and operate robust observability, metrics, and automated testing systems to ensure consistent performance at scale
- Lead iOS execution rituals including daily and weekly standups, backlog ownership in Linear, and tight cross-functional coordination with Product, Design, and Backend teams
- Translate product goals into clear dependencies, timelines, and deliverables to keep teams unblocked and shipping
- Drive mobile EHR integration excellence, ensuring seamless integration with Epic Haiku, Epic HyperSpace, and other mobile EHR platforms
Requirements:
- Founder-level ownership mindset. You operate like the business depends on your decisions and execution
- Senior, hands-on iOS engineering ability. You actively design systems, write and review production Swift code, and set the technical bar by example
- Deep iOS platform expertise. 7+ years of iOS development with Swift/SwiftUI, UIKit, and modern iOS architectures. Experience shipping consumer-grade iOS apps to the App Store at scale
- Experience in high-intensity environments such as YC-backed startups, early-stage companies, or zero-to-one teams where speed and judgment matter
- Mobile leadership experience. You've led iOS teams (3+ engineers) and own mobile engineering processes, release management, and cross-platform coordination
- Comfort with ambiguity. You turn incomplete product direction into clear technical plans and ship without heavy process
- Bias toward leverage and simplicity. You choose durable solutions and know when to optimize versus when to ship
