## About the Role

* Deep, hands-on experience shipping a React Native and TypeScript app in production at scale
 * Experience leading engineers, as an engineering manager or as a tech lead with people responsibilities such as coaching, hiring, and handling performance
 * Enough native iOS and/or Android depth to make sound calls at the boundary: native modules, camera and background tasks, OS lifecycle, and app store releases
 * A track record of owning shared mobile foundations that other teams build on, including CI/CD, release management, and test automation (such as GitHub Actions, Maestro, or Detox)
 * Experience using Sentry, New Relic, or similar to drive down crash rates and turn data into priorities
 * Practical use of AI-assisted development tools like Cursor or Claude, and experience helping a team use them well
 * Clear written communication across time zones and with non-engineering partners, and a habit of finishing what you start

Nice-to-haves

 * Experience with camera, AR or LiDAR, or large media uploads, including integrating native SDKs into React Native
 * Experience with offline-first sync (such as WatermelonDB or Apollo) or enterprise mobile needs such as MDM/Intune and WCAG accessibility
 * Experience in construction, insurance, or field-services software, or leading distributed or contractor teams
