About the role
Gray’s iOS app is a voice-first terminal for people who run real infrastructure, built on a modern cross-platform stack with deep native work where it counts. You will own the surface our users touch every day. The talk loop, the live terminal, the crew view, and the interrupt loop that makes Gray feel instant.
This is a senior, hands-on role. You will work directly with the founders and ship to the App Store every week.
What you will own
- Own the iOS app end to end. Architecture, performance, release
- Make the voice loop feel instant. Sub-second barge-in, smooth orb state transitions, careful haptics
- Build the live terminal view. Scrollback, key bar, color-tagged sessions, at 60fps
- Keep the app honest on battery, memory, and background audio
- Review designs critically, and push back when a spec won’t feel right in the hand
What you bring
- 5+ years shipping production mobile apps that feel native
- Real comfort dropping into native iOS work when it counts
- A feel for motion and touch. You notice 80ms
- Experience with streaming data over flaky mobile networks
- You use a terminal daily and know why Ctrl-C matters
Nice to have
- You have shipped a voice or audio product
- You have shipped a cross-platform app users assumed was native
- You run your own homelab or VPS

About Gray
Gray is voice-first AI you operate like a terminal. You speak and it runs real work across your machines. SSH sessions, multi-agent jobs, files, scheduled tasks. Then it speaks back. It is self-hosted, private by architecture, and built for the people who run the internet’s plumbing.
