About Whop

At Whop, we’re building a farmers market for the internet where people can set up storefronts, accept payments, find customers, and connect with customers . Our mission is to deliver everybody a sustainable income. We are bridging the gap between commerce and connection amidst an exploding internet economy.

What does the role look like?

As a Senior Software Engineer your primary responsibilities will involve developing new features, fixing bugs, and ensuring the reliable and rapid delivery of high-quality code.

Our iOS app has seen 600,000+ downloads since May 2024, and usage is accelerating. As a Senior iOS Engineer, you’ll lead high-impact projects, focusing on features like live video streaming, immersive content feeds, native chat, and Whop discovery. Success in this role centers on high-quality, high-velocity output—you’ll be focused on building and delivering rather than aligning with broader company KPIs or metrics.

A product-focused mindset is essential, enabling you to spot and improve rough user interactions independently, ensuring a seamless, engaging experience for our users. Success in this role will be measured through producing high quality code at a high velocity.
