Job summary

Cara Care is seeking a versatile Senior React Native Engineer to advance our digital therapeutics platform for digestive health. You will ship iOS/Android apps with TypeScript, collaborate across product, design, and medical teams, and shape mobile architecture in a regulated healthcare context.

You’ll leverage AI-assisted coding, own CI/CD pipelines (Fastlane, GitHub Actions, Bitrise), and advocate for performance, security, and accessibility while delivering patient‑centric features.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with at least 3 years focused on React Native and shipping production apps.
• Expert with React Native and TypeScript, React Navigation, state management, and testing (Jest, React Native Testing Library; Detox a plus).
• Hands-on experience using AI coding agents to implement features, refactor code, and write automated tests, including connecting agents to engineering tools via MCP.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and ship high-quality React Native apps for iOS and Android with TypeScript.
• Use AI coding agents to implement features, refactor code, and generate tests. Define clear tasks and constraints, provide relevant context, and validate the resulting changes through code review, automated tests, and checks on real devices.
• Own the full mobile lifecycle: architecture, implementation, automated testing, release management, monitoring, and iteration.
• Integrate native capabilities (push notifications, deep links, biometric auth, camera/sensors); write and maintain native modules when needed (Swift/Kotlin).
• Drive mobile performance and reliability (startup time, bundle size, memory, battery) and meet accessibility best practices.
• Set up and evolve mobile CI/CD (e.g., Fastlane, GitHub Actions/Bitrise), internal testing (TestFlight/Play Console), and release pipelines.
• Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and Medical to explore, define, and deliver patient‑centric features, and to improve our current platform.
• Connect AI-assisted development workflows to design and engineering tools via MCP, for example to access Figma specifications and components, check implementations against designs, and automate repetitive coding and validation tasks. Keep patient data, credentials, and other sensitive information out of unapproved tools and workflows.
• Uphold technical excellence in architecture, code quality, and security, especially in a regulated healthcare environment, including applicable requirements under IEC 62304, BSI TR-03161, and the MDR.
• Contribute to a platform that powers multiple regulated digital health products across indications like IBS, GERD, and upcoming expansions.
• Mentor other developers and help raise the technical bar across the team.
