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. ๐Ÿ‘€ We hope you are someone who: - Feels a deep sense of ownership over the apps you build, because youโ€™ll 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 hackerโ€™s 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 userโ€™s 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 โ€œwhyโ€ behind the โ€œhowโ€. - Balances craft with pragmatism - knows when to polish, and when to just ship.
