Proof of work
The team

Join our Frontend Engineering team to craft high-performance, mission-critical interfaces that bring Kraken’s crypto products to life. As a member of this team, your focus is on delivering seamless, elegant, and secure client experiences across our entire product surface.

You’ll work alongside backend engineers, crypto protocol experts, and designers obsessed with detail to build React Native and TypeScript applications that operate at scale and meet the expectations of our global user base. Whether it’s rendering real-time market data, simplifying complex user flows, or optimizing for performance on low-latency devices, you’ll be at the center of how our clients experience Kraken.

This team owns everything from component architecture and design systems to experimentation, analytics instrumentation, and accessibility — all while championing frontend performance, developer experience, and UI consistency.

The opportunity
  • Design, develop, and maintain high-quality mobile applications using React Native and TypeScript

  • Lead architectural decisions and implementation of scalable, performant mobile features

  • Collaborate closely with backend engineers, product managers, and designers to deliver seamless mobile user experiences across iOS and Android

  • Own features end-to-end—from concept and prototyping to release and post-launch improvements

  • Implement and uphold mobile-specific best practices around performance, navigation, accessibility, and testing

  • Contribute to shared component libraries and mobile design systems

  • Mentor other engineers and support code reviews, architecture discussions, and process improvements

  • Optimize application performance, minimize load times, and enhance app responsiveness

Skills you should HODL
  • 6+ years of experience in software development, with at least 3+ years focused on React Native

  • Deep knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript and React Native's core principles and APIs

  • Experience building and shipping cross-platform apps for both iOS and Android

  • Familiarity with React Navigation, Redux Toolkit, MobX, or other state management libraries

  • Experience integrating with RESTful APIs and WebSockets

  • Proficiency with mobile testing frameworks (e.g., Detox, Jest, React Native Testing Library)

  • Experience working with native modules or bridging native code (iOS/Android) when needed

  • Understanding of mobile UX patterns, accessibility, and responsive design principles

  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills across engineering, design, and product teams

Nice to haves
  • Experience migrating to or working with the new React Native architecture (Fabric/TurboModules)

  • Familiarity with OTA update tools like CodePush or Expo EAS

  • Exposure to native iOS/Android development (Swift, Kotlin, Java)

  • Background in crypto, fintech, or privacy-first mobile applications

  • Contributions to open source or experience with building internal developer tooling

  • Understanding of mobile CI/CD and release pipelines (e.g., Fastlane, EAS, GitHub Actions)
