About The Position

With bold and ambitious goals, REA Group is changing the way the world experiences property. No matter where you're at on your property journey, we're here to help with every step - whether that's finding or financing your next home. Our people are the key to our success. At the heart of everything we do, is a thriving culture centred around high performance and care. We are purpose driven and collaborative, which drives innovation and our ability to make a real impact. As such, we're proud to have been named in Australia's "Top 5" Best Workplaces two years in a row, as well as being recognised as a Best Workplace for Women. The Engineer - Mobile (iOS) role sits within the Listing Foundations squad, a key part of the Listing, Visualisation & Content business unit. The Listing Foundations squad is the team supporting and evolving the core systems that power property detail pages, search results, and listing content for millions of Australians every month. We keep these systems fast, reliable, and ready for innovation, enabling REA to deliver new features and highâquality user experiences at scale. As an Engineer in the Listing Foundations team, you'll join a crossâfunctional, multiâdisciplined squad to deliver userâfacing experiences and solve real needs for millions of users. Our systems operate at massive scale, supporting some of the most heavily used features on realestate.com.au, and require solving complex integration challenges across multiple platforms. You'll be involved in the full development lifecycle: implementing features, building systems, resolving issues, and maintaining services, with the guidance and support of your team. Your technical skills in mobile development with a speciality in iOS will be essential for delivering robust, maintainable, and performant code. You'll have a solid understanding of mobile development principles, API integration, and performance optimisation. You'll also have the opportunity to grow your skills by working outside your core mobile expertise-whether that's contributing to backend APIs, cloud services, or automation pipelines-as you help the team deliver end-to-end solutions. You'll contribute to technical discussions and ongoing improvements to our experiences, striving for high quality, maintainable solutions. You're expected to keep learning by following technical trends and best practices, positively influencing team culture, and helping build collaborative, high-performing squads.
