What You’ll Do

• Lead the design and implementation of our first mobile app, with React Native as the preferred approach, while keeping flexibility to evolve the tech stack as the product matures.
• Drive key architecture decisions – navigation, state management, animations, and performance tuning – ensuring scalability and maintainability.
• Act as the guardian of mobile UX and performance: define what should be built in React Native and where native development is the better fit.
• Partner with backend and product teams to deliver seamless, end-to-end user journeys.
• Establish mobile engineering foundations – coding standards, CI/CD pipelines, testing practices, and observability – from the ground up.
• Mentor future mobile hires, scale the team, and actively contribute to the hiring process.

You Should Have

• 8–10+ years in mobile engineering, with at least 3+ years production‑level React Native experience.
• Solid background in iOS or Android native development – confident extending and maintaining native modules when required.
• Proven experience building and maintaining mobile apps with significant active user bases.
• Deep understanding of UX, performance bottlenecks, and platform‑specific edge cases.
• Strong technical judgment with the ability to balance trade‑offs, influence direction, and adapt the stack as needed.
• Excellent communication skills and experience collaborating with product, design, and backend peers.
• Experience in consumer‑first industries, ideally with high‑scale apps (>100K MAUs).
