We're looking for a React Native engineer to join a cross-functional Consumer pod focused on building and scaling core Krak experiences. You'll build alongside Product, Frontend and Backend Engineers in your pod, delivering seamless, performant user experiences across our Krak app, holding the features you ship to a high bar for UX, technical quality, and reliability. It's an opportunity to build high-impact, consumer-facing functionality used daily by a global user base.

Build screens and components that are maintainable, performant, and resilient, applying established architecture and design patterns
Write clean, well-tested code and take an active part in code review, applying the team’s engineering standards consistently
Contribute to technical design discussions within your pod, raising clear proposals and trade-offs for the work you own
Work closely with Product Managers, Designers, and the Rust backend engineers in your pod to deliver features with measurable customer value
Help improve code quality, shared components, and tooling across the Krak mobile codebase, keeping current with the React Native ecosystem
What you bring

Solid working knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript and hands-on experience building with React Native
Experience integrating and consuming APIs, with attention to security and performance on mobile
Experience with frontend testing frameworks and modern front-end build pipelines and tooling
Strong understanding of UI/UX best practices, empathy for the customer, and a passion for building intuitive, performant consumer experiences
Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
Nice to haves
Familiarity with native mobile app development (iOS/Android)
Experience developing micro interactions and animations in React Native
Experience with Next.js and WebSockets
Experience within a large technology organization or fast growing startup
Hands-on experience in consumer payments, crypto or fintech mobile applications
