Ready to build products that help people take back their time?

At Opal, we’re building the world's leading screen time app — and we’re just getting started.

We’ve already helped our community save over 150 million hours of screen time. Now, we’re looking for a Senior iOS Engineer to help us move even faster, own key technologies, and shape the future of focus and productivity.
