Job Level
About the role
- Architect and implement complex features and interaction flows in our React Native app that are performant, accessible, and deliver exceptional user experiences.
- Lead the technical design and implementation of complex features end-to-end — from product requirements through deployment and monitoring.
- Diagnose and resolve performance bottlenecks, optimize rendering, reduce bundle size, and improve the overall responsiveness of the mobile app.
- Propose and drive architectural decisions for your team’s mobile features, evaluating tradeoffs and communicating recommendations clearly.
- Provide hands-on mentorship to Software Engineers I, II, and III on your team and in the organization through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance.
- Define, advocate for, and improve best practices around component architecture, testing, accessibility, and mobile deployment for your team.
- Work closely with Product Managers, Designers, QA, and other engineering teams to translate product goals into well-scoped technical solutions.
- Share responsibility for production incidents, contributing to root cause analysis and long-term reliability improvements.
Requirements
- 5–8 years of professional software engineering experience, with significant time building production React Native applications
- Proven track record of owning and delivering complex, multi-component mobile features in a team environment
- Experience with the full mobile development lifecycle — from development through app store submission and post-release monitoring
- Experience building mobile applications backed by large-scale, high-throughput distributed systems serving millions of users
- Expert-level TypeScript proficiency — you write clean, type-safe, well-tested production code
- Deep React Native expertise — performance optimization, native module integration, complex animations, and platform-specific considerations
- Strong experience with Expo and its ecosystem
- Proficiency with monorepo tooling (Yarn workspaces or similar)
- Solid understanding of mobile testing strategies — Jest for unit/component testing, experience with Maestro for E2E testing
- Experience with CI/CD for mobile and Expo/EAS workflows — build pipelines, OTA updates, app store deployment
- Understanding of observability in mobile — crash reporting, performance monitoring, analytics integration
- Comfortable working autonomously with minimal direction on ambiguous problems
- Effective communicator who can articulate technical decisions to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders
- Experience working in a fully remote engineering organization
- Able to context-switch between deep technical work and collaborative planning.
