Integrate mobile-native features (push notifications, biometrics, haptics) for user engagement and trust.

Collaboration & Startup DNA :

Partner with backend, AI, and design teams to align on APIs, data contracts, and product flow.

Embrace a founder mindset : operate with autonomy, solve problems with limited resources, and take ownership of both big design decisions and minor fixes .

Contribute to long-term product strategy, not just code.

What We’re Looking For

10–15 years of frontend / mobile development experience , with 5+ years in React Native (TypeScript preferred).

A DIY builder mindset : resourceful, entrepreneurial, and comfortable working in ambiguity.

Willingness to work in an equity-only, pre-funding startup environment.
