- Proven, production-grade experience building and shipping React Native applications (iOS + Android) at scale.

- Experience owning mobile CI/CD, release processes, and app store submission/compliance (Apple App Store and Google Play).
- Strong understanding of mobile app performance, stability, and production monitoring (crash reporting, analytics, remote config/feature flagging).

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to communicate effectively with engineers, contractors, and leadership.
- Ability to describe, present, and influence architectural decisions across teams.
Nice to Have
- Experience contributing to Angular-based web applications.
- Familiarity with C#/.NET, or general comfort navigating and contributing to backend/API codebases.

- Experience with localization/internationalization in a mobile app serving a multilingual user base.
- Experience in fintech, payments, or another domain with strong security and compliance requirements.
- Prior experience as a technical lead for distributed teams that include contractors, including cross-timezone collaboration.
