About Superhuman

Superhuman is the AI productivity platform on a mission to unlock the superhuman potential in everyone. The Superhuman suite of apps and agents brings AI wherever people work, integrating with over 1 million applications and websites. The company’s products include Grammarly’s writing assistance, Coda’s collaborative workspaces, Mail’s inbox management, and Go, the proactive AI assistant that understands context and delivers help automatically. Founded in 2009, Superhuman empowers over 40 million people, 50,000 organizations, and 3,000 educational institutions worldwide to eliminate busywork and focus on what matters.

The Opportunity

Superhuman is building the AI productivity platform that works everywhere people do, and Superhuman Mail is central to how people communicate and get work done. Today, we’re the fastest email experience in the world - and one our customers truly love.

On the Superhuman Mail team, you will own our team’s outcomes for our iOS mobile roadmap alongside the Engineering Manager and Product Manager. We’re redefining what it means to manage your inbox and have an ambitious roadmap to pursue. Mobile is where Superhuman becomes a daily habit: users who use both desktop and mobile activate and send at roughly 3x the rate of desktop-only users, and mobile is emerging as one of the company’s most promising growth channels.

We’re looking for an engineer who can own product and technical strategy end-to-end; someone who will own the hard problems with us, set the bar, and up-level the team. You will help shape not just what we build, but how we build. You will help define a one-to-two-year vision for where our mobile platform should go and lead the team into an AI-native way of working, from technical foundations and tooling to how a mobile team ships faster with high quality.

In this role, you will:

  • Identify and personally own the highest-complexity, highest-impact engineering initiatives spanning multiple teams.
  • Own the one-to-two-year technical vision for our mobile platform: architecture, technical foundations, and the roadmap of investments that keep us fast and reliable as we scale.
  • Partner with the PM and EM to define product strategy — where we go, why, and how — grounded in a deep understanding of the user, the goals, and the metrics that matter, and then drive execution to get there.
  • Mentor and coach senior engineers to grow in execution, judgment, and influence.
  • Drive alignment across functions, navigating ambiguity and organizational complexity to proactively land the right outcomes.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in iOS development or related roles
    • (Additional experience with full-stack development working across clients and backend systems is a plus!)
  • Expertise in Swift, UIKit, SwiftUI, and iOS frameworks
  • Track record of shipping high-quality, delightful mobile experiences
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently (leading the technical direction of a project and operating effectively with limited guidance), manage priorities across multiple projects, and collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams
  • Experience in working in 0-to-1 environments (early-stage or new-product work)
  • Strong communication skills and a demonstrated ability to mentor and support other engineers
  • Fluency with AI coding tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) and a point of view on how they change the way teams build software
  • Strong product instincts - you care about the end-user experience and can make good tradeoffs between speed and reliability

Superhuman is an AI-native productivity platform designed to eliminate the friction of modern work. Originally known as Grammarly (the famous AI writing assistant), the company acquired the collaborative document platform Coda, and later acquired the ultra-fast premium email client Superhuman in 2025. Following these massive acquisitions, the parent company completely rebranded itself from Grammarly to 'Superhuman.' Their mission is to close the 'AI productivity gap.' Instead of making you open a separate AI chatbot and manually type prompts, Superhuman integrates proactive AI agents directly into your emails, documents, and browser tabs, allowing humans and AI to seamlessly work together everywhere work happens."

Safety First

  • Never pay for a job application.
  • Do not share sensitive bank info.
  • Verify the client before starting work.
