We are seeking a passionate and innovative Senior iOS Developer to be a key architect of a revolutionary mobile application for a premier football team. You will be at the forefront of designing and developing a platform that redefines fan engagement, creating a seamless and immersive experience for supporters both in the stadium and around the world. This is your chance to build an app that sets a new standard for technical excellence and user interaction in the sports industry, directly shaping the future of how fans connect with the game.

About the Project

The Football Mobile Fan Engagement Platform is a multi-layered digital initiative designed to create a unified, real-time fan experience both inside the stadium and globally. This platform combines a native mobile application with a sophisticated data ingestion and analytics pipeline to deliver personalised content, streamline game-day operations, and foster a deeper connection between the team and its global fanbase.

We are solving the challenge of moving from fragmented, traditional media to an immersive, data-driven digital ecosystem. By unifying news, videos, stats, mobile ticketing, and in-stadium features into a single mobile app, we aim to eliminate fan friction and use real-time data to enhance everything from stadium entry to concession wait times.
