FULL TIME

MacPaw is a software company that develops and distributes software for macOS and iOS. Today, we have 20 million active users across all our products.

At MacPaw, we believe humans and technology can reach their greatest potential together.

MacPaw is proud to be Ukrainian. The support and development of Ukraine are significant parts of the company's culture. MacPaw gathers open-minded people who support each other and aspire to change the world around us.

We're looking for a mature, independent, and proactive macOS Engineer to join the team behind Eney, a brand-new product that's just beginning its journey.

Eney is an AI companion designed to help Mac users stay organized, automate their routine tasks, and focus on what matters most.

We're looking for someone who enjoys diving into complex and unfamiliar problems, is skilled at reading and understanding other people's code, and can communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical teammates.

This is a unique opportunity to directly shape how the Eney character will look and behave — creating a one-of-a-kind macOS experience with no real analogs. Your ideas and expertise will have a tangible impact on the product's future, and you'll also have the opportunity to drive key technical decisions.

If you're excited about building something unique at the intersection of AI, 3D animation, and macOS, we'd love to hear from you

In this role, you will:

• Add new animations to the current 3D character
• Extend animation composer to let other team members experiment with animations independently
• Collaborate closely with designers, product managers, and non-technical teammates to bring ideas to life and explain technical decisions clearly
• Investigate, research, and prototype solutions for complex or unfamiliar technical challenges

Skills you'll need to bring:

• Proven macOS/iOS development experience
• Proficiency in Swift
• Solid knowledge of computer science fundamentals
• Experience with native 3D graphics frameworks (e.g., Metal, SceneKit)
• Experience with 3rd-party 3D solutions and engines (e.g., Spline, Unity, Unreal)
• Hands-on experience with real-time animation of 3D objects
• Experience in shader programming (in any language)
• Ability to understand, maintain, and build upon other developers' custom solutions
• Strong communication skills, ability to explain complex technical topics to non-technical colleagues
• Ability for self-learning, investigation, and research
• Intermediate (or higher) level of English for effective team communication

As a plus:

• Objective-C knowledge
• Experience with interprocess communication
• Familiarity with CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, Azure)
• Experience developing or supporting custom graphics pipelines

Q:

How to explain your job to a child?

A:

Programming is like building with Lego. You have different sets, and you can combine their elements to create something unique. The only limit is your imagination, and the only difference is that you can't connect the pieces by force.
