Integrate REST APIs, authentication flows, push notifications, deep linking, and real-time features.
Optimise app performance, memory usage, animations, and stability across a range of devices.
Debug, test, and iterate — improving reliability and quality continuously.
Use AI-assisted development tools (Cursor, Copilot, etc.) to move faster and build smarter.
Contribute to architecture decisions and participate actively in product and team discussions.
What you Need
Strong hands-on React Native experience — including at least one app live on Play Store or App
Store.
Solid JavaScript / TypeScript skills; comfort with modern patterns and ES standards.
Experience with React Native CLI and native module bridging — not just Expo.
Familiarity with state management (Redux, Zustand) and navigation (React Navigation).
Understanding of app signing, build configs, and deployment workflows (Fastlane, EAS, etc.).
Experience with Firebase, push notifications, background tasks, and device-level permissions.
Ability to read or write basic native code (Kotlin/Java or Swift/Obj-C) is a strong plus.
Comfortable with Git, pull request workflows, and working in a shared codebase.
Good to have
CI/CD experience for mobile builds (Bitrise, GitHub Actions, Fastlane).
Knowledge of WebSockets, offline-first architecture, or real-time data sync.
Prior experience in fintech, consumer apps, or high-traffic mobile products.
Consistent use of AI tools as part of your daily development workflow.
