About Beacon AI

Were a fast-moving team of aviators engineers and operators building an AI platform to make flying safer more efficient and more capable. Backed by top investors weve secured a dozen Department of Defense contracts and partnered with major airlines to deliver mission-critical systems. We operate without silos or heavy processes. Small focused teams own what they build ship quickly and learn fast pushing the boundaries of how humans and AI work together in aviation.

Role Overview

We are seekingan iOS Software Engineer to join our mobile team and help build high-impact iOS applications primarily targeting iPad that support our flight safety platform. In this role you will work closely with senior engineers and designers to develop user-facing features and contribute to production systems. You will have experience building Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) applications working with location services and map navigation and integrating with external hardware and edge devices. You are performance obsessed where your applications handle large datasets efficiently such as millions of data points for wind and weather data and render aviation instruments with precision and zero lag. You understand that EFB applications must remain fully operational in offline and degraded connectivity environments and you know how to build for that reality. Youll grow your iOS expertise while working on real-time safety critical applications where reliability and accuracy are non negotiable.

What Youll Do

• Design and implement iOS features using Swift SwiftUI UIKit and modern iOS frameworks.
• Build and maintain high performance mobile applications that handle large datasets such as wind and weather data in real time.
• Develop and integrate Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) features including location services map navigation and aviation instrument displays.
• Integrate with external hardware and edge devices to support real time data ingestion and application functionality.
• Architect offline-first experiences and graceful degradation strategies to ensure full application functionality in low or no connectivity environments.
• Implement background processing and long-running compute tasks using Swift Concurrency async/await and background task APIs to support continuous data handling without impacting the user experience.
• Apply data security best practices including Keychain storage encryption and secure data handling to protect sensitive flight and user data.
• Collaborate with senior engineers and designers to deliver precise reliable and intuitive mobile experiences.
• Participate in code reviews and follow established iOS best practices and architectural patterns.
• Help ensure code quality performance and maintainability through testing and documentation.

• 3+ years of experience developing iOS applications or equivalent experience through internships projects or coursework.
• Experience with Swift and SwiftUI with some exposure to UIKit and common iOS frameworks.
• Familiarity with building or working on EFB applications location services or map navigation frameworks such as Mapbox or MapKit.
• Experience integrating with external hardware or edge devices and managing real time data pipelines.
• Demonstrated ability to optimize application performance and handle large datasets without degradation in speed or reliability.
• Experience building offline-first or connectivity-resilient mobile applications including local data caching and sync strategies.
• Familiarity with background processing patterns and long-running task management using Swift Concurrency or background task frameworks.
• Understanding of iOS data security practices including Keychain encrypted storage and secure coding principles.
• Familiarity with asynchronous programming concepts such as async/await multithreading or GCD.
• Strong problem solving skills and eagerness to learn from feedback and mentorship.
• Ability to work effectively in a collaborative fast moving environment.

• Experience building or optimizing applications specifically for iPad including split view multitasking or large screen layout design.
• Passion for aviation and a desire to improve air travel efficiency and safety.
• Experience working on safety critical or mission critical systems.
• Familiarity with CI/CD workflows or cloud backed mobile systems.
• Interest in real time data sensors or hardware adjacent systems.

• Healthcare: 100% of employee medical premiums covered; 25% for dependents
• Time Off: 3 weeks PTO plus 13+ paid company holidays
• Stipends: Monthly phone and wellness benefits
• 401(k): Offered (no current employer match but we are committed to enhancing this benefit in the future).
