About us

At Zego, we know that traditional motor insurance holds good drivers back. It's too complicated, too expensive, and it doesn't take into account how well you actually drive.

That's why, since 2016, we've been on a mission to change all of that. Our mission at Zego is to offer the lowest priced insurance for good drivers.

From van drivers and gig workers to everyday car drivers, our customers are our driving force - they're at the heart of everything we do.

We've sold tens of millions of policies so far, and raised over $200 million in funding. And we're only just getting started.

About the role

We’re looking for a Senior II iOS Engineer to play a key role in shaping the architecture and delivering a world-class iOS application that provides our customers with an exceptional user experience. As part of our mobile team, you’ll contribute to two core products:

• The Consumer-Facing App – used by our customers to handle their policies and access insights about their driving behaviour.
• The Mobile SDK – a native SDK responsible for collecting the data required to determine driving patterns, which is ultimately used to create a driver score.

Beyond coding we are seeking someone who brings deep experience in building secure, scalable, and high-performance iOS applications, while also contributing to the broader technical strategy and mentoring others within the team.

Your responsibilities as a Senior iOS Engineer will include:

• Taking a pivotal role in crafting and enhancing the core application experience on the iOS platform.
• Refining our existing apps to ensure we deliver the premier experience in the market.
• Set technical direction and drive engineering best practices across multiple teams or a business unit.
• Leading by example in upholding code styles and standards, fostering best practices within our engineering team.
• Collaborating with Product Managers and various teams to launch exciting new products and features.
• Facilitate knowledge sharing through code reviews, design docs, tech talks, etc..

To thrive as a Senior iOS Engineer, you should have:

• 8+ years of iOS development experience.
• Solid understanding of software architecture, design patterns and best practices.
• Experience in building SDKs that are scalable, user-friendly, and performant for third-party developers.
• Strong communication skills and a collaborative spirit to create outstanding customer experiences.
• Experience in telematics is a plus.
• While not mandatory, familiarity with the insurance or finance industries is appreciated, along with a genuine interest in how insurance can enhance customer lives and empower meaningful employment.
• You will be someone who’s actively curious about how AI can enhance your work - keen to experiment, learn quickly, and apply tools that improve productivity, streamline tasks, or unlock new ways of thinking. Whether you’re already hands-on or fast building confidence, you take ownership of staying ahead and working smarter.

How we work
We believe that teams work better when they have time to collaborate and space to get things done. We call it Zego Hybrid.

It’s all about finding the right balance between collaborative face time and focused home-working, so we can achieve great results while maintaining a healthy work-life balance
