Job Description

We're looking for a Lead Native App Engineer to join our team and take full ownership of an exciting new, unannounced project. 👀
We hope you are someone who:

  • Feels a deep sense of ownership over the apps you build, because you’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 hacker’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 user’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 “why” behind the “how”.

  • Balances craft with pragmatism - knows when to polish, and when to just ship.
