Swift UI (Intern)

Located in Paragon City, Barki Road, Lahore, this internship opportunity offers a paid stipend and is designed to lead towards a full-time role. The position requires onsite attendance from Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. As part of the Mobile Core Engineering team, you will contribute to building critical diagnostic applications and low-level iOS SDKs that are deployed across millions of devices worldwide. This role involves working closely with native hardware frameworks and developing highly optimized Swift and Objective-C code to support advanced device functionalities.

Key Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain mission-critical diagnostic applications and iOS SDKs used globally.
- Implement automated device test suites that interact directly with native hardware components such as Battery, Ambient Light Sensors, Camera, Biometrics, LCD, and CoreNFC.
- Translate complex functional requirements, flowcharts, and pseudo-logic into modular, efficient Swift and Objective-C code.
- Update and maintain internal frameworks ensuring strict type safety, backward compatibility, and robust serialization/deserialization processes.
- Build and sustain real-time socket communication (TCP/WebSockets) between iOS devices and desktop diagnostic software.

Required Qualifications
- No prior professional experience is necessary; however, a strong conceptual understanding of Computer Science and iOS fundamentals is essential.
- Final-year students or recent graduates in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related technical fields are encouraged to apply.
- Advanced knowledge of iOS fundamentals, including Memory Management (ARC, retain cycles), Concurrency (GCD, async/await), and UIKit/SwiftUI View Lifecycles.
- Proficiency in Swift programming, including protocols, closures, and generics, along with strong algorithmic thinking and familiarity with architectural design patterns such as MVC and MVVM.
- Experience with structured JSON parsing using Codable and solid command of Git workflows.

Preferred Qualifications and Benefits
- Familiarity with iOS hardware and sensor frameworks like CoreNFC, CoreMotion, and AVFoundation is advantageous.
- Understanding of raw socket communication, client-server handshakes, and modular architectures such as Swift Package Manager (SPM) and CocoaPods is a plus.
- Hands-on experience with profiling applications and debugging memory leaks using Xcode Instruments will be beneficial.
- The internship offers a monthly stipend starting from Rs 25,000 with a clear pathway to a permanent position.

Candidates must be able to reliably commute or plan to relocate to Lahore before starting the internship. This is an in-person role based in Lahore, requiring full-time onsite presence during working hours.
