  • Write well-tested, maintainable code that accounts for security and GDPR, and keep up with new technologies and AI-based development tools.
  • Work in a distributed team, sharing knowledge and learning from colleagues.

Requirements

  • 2+ years of experience with React Native libraries such as Redux, React Navigation and Axios.
  • Proven experience building cross-platform mobile apps that connect React Native to native modules where needed.
  • Hands-on experience setting up CI/CD pipelines for mobile apps, and strong experience with monitoring and observability.
  • Excellent English communication, with the ability to explain complex technical topics and solutions clearly and concisely.
  • Bonus: experience working with Kubernetes.

  • Candidates who meet most but not all requirements are still encouraged to apply.
