About Town We're an applied AI company building a powerful assistant that makes it easy for anyone to create and use software in their everyday work. Town starts from
who you are. It builds a persistent model of you — your voice, judgment, relationships, priorities — and does real work on your behalf across every tool you use: email, calendar, docs, Slack, CRM. It doesn't wait to be prompted. It observes, learns, and acts. The more you use it, the more it becomes an extension of you. We most recently raised a $55M Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz, with participation from Forerunner Ventures, First Round Capital, Alt Capital, and Conviction. We work in person in San Francisco's Financial District, five days a week.
About
the role We're looking for a founding iOS engineer to own the Town iOS app end-to-end and make the assistant feel native, fast, and trustworthy on Apple platforms. You'll build the surfaces where people hand Town their work and watch it act on their behalf. This is a small team, so you'll really own it all end to end: architecture, performance, and polish. Most "AI on iOS" today is a webview wrapper around a chat box. That isn't the bar. The bar is: a user picks up their iPhone, Town does the thing they actually wanted, and it feels like Apple shipped it themselves.
What you'll do Own the Town iOS app end-to-end — architecture, performance, and the details that make it feel native. Build and ship new mobile experiences that let users intuitively and easily hand Town real work and see it done. Raise the bar on reliability, latency, and responsiveness across the app. Work closely with product, design, and backend to turn ambitious ideas into shipped features. You might thrive here if you... Have experience building high-quality iOS applications in production. Mayve you've even built consumer apps at scale, or taken one from 0-1. Know the Apple ecosystem cold — Xcode, SwiftUI, UIKit, and Swift concurrency. Have owned a complex, business-critical iOS app end-to-end and made real architectural tradeoffs. Care deeply about performance, security, and user experience — you can tell within seconds whether an app was built by people who care. Have strong opinions about how a native app should behave and read the Apple Human Interface Guidelines for fun. Move fast, decide at 70%, and run through walls to find the work. Location In-person in San Francisco's Financial District (right near Montgomery BART), five days a week.
Town is an AI-powered personal assistant that connects to your email, calendar, WhatsApp, and the SaaS tools you use every day. Unlike chatbots where you go to the AI, Town comes to you — proactively understanding your priorities, relationships, and workflows to do real work on your behalf. Founded in 2024 by Jean-Denis Greze (ex-CTO of Plaid) and Tony Vincent (ex-Director of Applied AI at Google), Town launched in February 2025 and is already seeing social media-level retention with thousands of users and 30–50% week-over-week growth, purely through word of mouth. We're a senior-only team of 11, backed by First Round Capital, Conviction, and world-class angels. No bureaucracy, no junior engineers — just a small team building something people genuinely love.

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
