Design-Focused React Native Engineer

This isn't a role where you'll be tweaking padding on someone else's components or shipping reskins of web flows wrapped in a WebView. You'll own our mobile app end-to-end — design and code — working directly with the founders to ship native experiences that move money in the real world. Our app is a bare-workflow React Native build with native modules for NFC tap-to-pay, biometric auth, and deep integrations with our payments backend. No Expo. The bridge, TurboModules, and platform-specific build pipelines are part of your job, not someone else's. We build inside Cursor, manage work in Linear, and use AI tooling as a core part of how we write and ship — not as a gimmick. If you can't show us apps you've personally designed and shipped, this isn't your role. We're not looking for a frontend engineer who 'cares about design.' We're looking for someone who would have been a designer in another life and learned to code so they could ship their own work without compromise.
