React Native Lead / Architect (hands-on)

The Role

A hands-on Mobile Architect accountable for the technical success of a customer's mobile program, not just advising on it. You will own the architecture, raise the engineering bar for the whole team, and personally build and unblock the hardest parts. You will work with product, UX, backend, QA and senior client stakeholders, and hold your ground on technical decisions, with data, in front of the client.

What You'll Do

• Lead design and implementation of a cross-platform React Native application for iOS and Android
• Write production code daily, including features, native modules, and tooling, and contribute to the team's coding standards
• Define and maintain mobile architecture, including navigation, state management, offline behavior, and native module integration
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and automate deployment processes for app store releases and phased rollouts
• Lead remote engineering teams across time zones, setting clear priorities, communicating decisions, and unblocking work asynchronously
• Mentor and grow mobile engineers through code reviews, pairing, and regular 1:1s
• Partner with product and design to translate business goals into scoped, testable technical plans
• Monitor app performance and stability, and drive improvements in startup time, crash rates, and responsiveness
• Make pragmatic build-versus-buy decisions for SDKs and third-party services, such as payments, analytics, and push notifications
• Participate in hiring, interviewing, and onboarding of engineers

  • Strong native iOS and Android depth: write, debug and review Swift and Kotlin independently; understand lifecycle, threading, memory, permissions, background execution and push notifications; fluent with Xcode, Gradle and CocoaPods/SPM and able to resolve build-system conflicts.
  • State and data layer design at scale: Redux Toolkit, Zustand, TanStack Query, React Navigation, offline storage (SQLite, WatermelonDB, MMKV or similar), conflict resolution and sync strategies.
  • Testing and delivery: Jest, React Native Testing Library, Detox or Maestro; CI/CD with Fastlane, GitHub Actions, Bitrise or EAS; code signing and OTA strategy (CodePush or EAS Update).
