Umbrel
Lead Native App Engineer
Remote
Role brief
What this role is asking for.
We're looking for a Lead Native App Engineer to join our team and take full ownership of an exciting new, unannounced project. ๐ We hope you are someone who: - Feels a deep sense of ownership over the apps you build, because youโll own this entire codebase end-to-end. - Has a strong background in developing native apps for iOS and Android using React Native, preferably with experience using platforms like Expo. - Is comfortable building for the desktop and has experience with frameworks like Tauri or Electron. - Obsessively sweats the details: performance, animations, offline states, edge cases, and the stuff most people ignore. - Has a hackerโs spirit; unafraid to dive into native code when needed, or figure out a gnarly build system issue. - Thrives when given full autonomy, but also loves supporting teammates and sharing knowledge. - Cares deeply about the user experience and tries to see every problem through the userโs eyes. - Communicates clearly and frequently (we do a lot of async writing and reading). - Enjoys being a generalist who can stretch across frameworks and platforms. - Is naturally curious and always looking to learn the โwhyโ behind the โhowโ. - Balances craft with pragmatism - knows when to polish, and when to just ship.
