Base pay range

This is an opportunity to join a high-traffic consumer product used by millions of people every month, where mobile is a core part of the experience rather than an afterthought.

You’ll be joining an established engineering function with 25+ engineers in the UK (50+ globally), working on iOS and Android apps that see millions of active users and real‑world impact every single day.

The mission is simple but ambitious: build a mobile app that users genuinely trust, return to daily, and rely on to make better purchasing decisions. You’ll play a key role in shaping how that experience looks, feels and evolves.

This role suits someone who cares deeply about product quality, enjoys ownership, and wants to work on a mature app where engineering standards matter.

What you’ll be doing

• Owning the development of production iOS and Android apps built with React Native
• Working closely with product managers, designers and fellow engineers to turn ideas into polished, user‑loved features
• Building high‑quality, delightful mobile experiences, including animations and micro‑interactions
• Taking responsibility for code quality, testing and release readiness
• Improving and maintaining a robust CI/CD pipeline and strong engineering standards
• Helping the wider team move faster by unblocking problems and raising the technical bar
• Keeping up with modern mobile tooling and best practices, and applying them pragmatically
• Providing technical guidance and mentorship to other engineers

What they’re looking for

• 5+ years of commercial React Native experience
• Strong understanding of the React Native ecosystem, performance, builds and native integrations
• Proven ability to translate designs into pixel‑perfect, smooth user experiences
• Experience with modern tooling such as Expo, CI/CD pipelines, monorepos and cloud infrastructure
• Solid understanding of how frontend, backend and networks interact
• Comfortable taking technical ownership and influencing standards
• Clear communicator with a delivery‑focused mindset
• Experience using modern developer tools (including AI/LLM tooling) is a bonus, not a requirement

Working environment

• Hybrid working with flexibility — no expectation to be in the office every day
• Modern, well‑located London office with great food, coffee and social spots nearby
• Collaborative, inclusive culture that values balance as much as delivery
• Real autonomy and trust — you’ll be treated like a senior, not micromanaged
• Generous pension with employer contributions up to 8%
• Private medical insurance
• Subsidised gym membership
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Free lunch when you’re in the office
• Dedicated weekly time for personal development
• Enhanced parental leave and strong support for returning parents
• Paid volunteering time plus donation matching
• Regular social events and company‑wide recognition programmes
