About the role
This person owns the mobile app end-to-end architecture, features, build pipeline, and store releases. Not a feature-ticket role.
Responsibilities:
- Building in React Native and TypeScript, integrating REST APIs, clean state management, and navigation.
- Accountable for performance, offline behavior, crash-free rates, and app size on both platforms.
- Working directly from designs and requirements, making architectural calls in collaboration with our engineers.
- Collaborating with QA and backend.
- Shipping a release to both the App Store and the Play Store solo.
Requirements:
- Production apps live on both iOS and Android, not one platform only, not internal/POC apps.
- iOS depth: Xcode, Swift/Objective-C native modules, code signing and provisioning profiles, TestFlight, and App Store review handling. This is our strongest preference and the most common gap.
- React Native + TypeScript, hands-on and current.
- Has owned the build pipeline and store release process, not just written features.
- Can take a feature from design to store without a spec being handed to them.
Preferred:
- Written custom native modules / bridged native SDKs.
- Offline-first architecture and app performance/size optimization.
- Has navigated an App Store rejection and resolved it.
