They're looking for a React Native Engineer to join their growing tech team at an exciting time, as they shift further toward mobile-first development and modern frameworks.

You'll be involved across the full development lifecycle, working closely with Product Owners, designers, and stakeholders to build and improve core applications used at scale. From a tech perspective, you'll have strong experience with React Native and TypeScript, ideally alongside some exposure to React for web.

It's a highly collaborative environment with excellent retention (the shortest-serving team member has been there 5 years), and while the team is busy, there's a real emphasis on support rather than pressure, it's very much the opposite of a cut-throat environment. They value people who are proactive, solutions-focused, and happy to suggest better ways of doing things. Day-to-day, you'll be: Building and maintaining mobile applications using React Native Contributing across web and app platforms Collaborating closely with product and UX teams Supporting improvements to performance, usability, and overall user experience Helping evolve the tech stack and development practices You'll also need strong communication skills, as much of the user base is non-technical, so the ability to explain concepts clearly and manage expectations is key.
