Full Job Description
We already have a mobile app in the store, but we're looking for someone who really cares about this part of the Ando experience to own things end to end.

What you'll do
  • Ship features in our Expo/React Native app from design through release, including App Store and Play Store submission
  • Set and goal against performance benchmarks - start time, list scrolling, animation smoothness, bundle size - and instrument the app so regressions get caught before users do
  • Drop into native (Swift/Kotlin) when a problem needs it: custom modules, third-party SDK integration, platform-specific behavior
  • Own our release process: EAS builds, OTA updates, staged rollouts, crash triage
  • Contribute to the web product when priorities call for it, and push for shared patterns where they genuinely help
  • Work directly with design on interaction details that make the experience truly magical

What we're looking for
  • 2+ years shipping mobile apps to the App Store. Real releases, real users, real review rejections you've had to work through
  • Strong React Native and Expo experience. You know the SDK, EAS, config plugins, and the tradeoffs of managed vs. bare
  • Performance instincts. You've profiled a janky list, fixed a slow cold start, or moved work off the JS thread with Reanimated worklets - and you can explain why the fix worked
  • Product judgment. You have a list of mobile apps you reference often, along with what makes each one exceptional.

Hiring process
  1. 30 min intro call
  2. Technical conversation - walk us through an app you've shipped
  3. Paid take-home or IRL work trial

Benefits
  • Free Equinox membership & other health perks
  • Generous equity grant vested over 4 years
  • Health, dental, vision insurance
