Job description
Key Responsibilities
Own features end to end. Concept → architecture → code → tests → launch → measurement → iteration. You own the outcome after launch, not just the merge.
Our native mobile experience. Ship and release features in our React Native / Expo app across iOS and Android: App Store and Play Store submissions and review, over-the-air updates, push notifications and deep links, offline and poor-network behavior, native module integration, and platform-specific UX that respects each OS’s conventions.
The full stack behind it. Clean Postgres data models, performant Node.js/TypeScript APIs, and React/Next.js web interfaces — so you’re never blocked waiting on someone else to expose an endpoint.
Product judgment. Push back on requirements that don’t hold up, propose the smaller version that tests the idea faster, and say when something isn’t worth building.
Instrumentation and evidence. Add the analytics and observability that tell you whether the thing worked; bring numbers to the next planning conversation.
Craft. Speed, polish, empty states, error states, and the details that make an experience feel considered.
Cross-functional partnership. Work directly with Product, Design, Customer Success, and the executive team — and with creators and subscribers themselves.
Qualifications
6+ years shipping production software, including meaningful ownership of product decisions, not just implementation of someone else’s spec.
3+ years focused on native mobile app development. React Native / Expo strongly preferred; native iOS or Android experience is a plus. App Store / Play Store deployment / review management
Strong intuition for good product and design. Must be able to make strong UI/UX decisions
Deep fluency in TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js/React, and modern CSS (Tailwind, CSS-in-JS, or similar).
Strong data-modeling capabilities and comfortable with SQL (Postgres preferred).
Experience writing automated tests (Jest, Playwright/Cypress) and owning CI workflows.
Familiarity with AWS serverless primitives (Lambda, SQS, RDS) is a must, expertise is a plus
Ability to communicate ideas clearly and communicate effectively with engineering, design, product, and other stakeholders
Adaptability and capability to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment.
