You’ll be responsible for building, shipping, and maintaining our React Native mobile applications in an AWS environment. You’ll collaborate closely with our Full Stack Project Lead, Back End Developer, and UI/UX Designer to deliver secure, performant, and emotionally engaging experiences.

• Build and ship iOS and Android applications using React Native, ensuring seamless performance across devices.
• Own the deployment process to the App Store and Google Play, including provisioning, compliance, and updates.
• Collaborate with the Full Stack Project Lead, Back End Developer, and UI/UX Designer to translate requirements into user‑ready features.
• Integrate with AWS services (e.g., Cognito, S3, Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB) for authentication, storage, and APIs.
• Ensure performance, scalability, and security of mobile apps within the AWS ecosystem.
• Write clean, maintainable code with a focus on reusability, testing, and reliability.
• Debug, troubleshoot, and optimize mobile apps based on QA and user feedback.
• Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and best‑practice improvements.

• 3–6+ years experience in mobile app development, with at least one production app launched on both iOS and Android.
• Strong proficiency in React Native and its ecosystem (navigation, hooks, state management).
• Experience integrating and managing applications in an AWS environment.
• Solid understanding of mobile deployment workflows, certificates, and store submission guidelines.
• Ability to collaborate with designers and back end developers, ensuring smooth handoffs and shared understanding.
• Familiarity with mobile‑first design patterns and performance optimization.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and ability to balance speed with code quality.

• Familiarity with multimedia handling (image/video upload, transcoding, playback).
• Experience with consumer SaaS products, subscriptions, or in‑app purchases.
• Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines for mobile app deployment.
• Interest in privacy‑first architecture and building software that prioritizes user trust.

• Flexible hours with core overlap for collaboration.
• Remote‑friendly, with preference for hybrid collaboration in Charleston, SC (work sessions with leadership, user tests, occasional shoots).
• We welcome contractors, part‑time, or full‑time; contract‑to‑hire is an option. Equity available for the right fit.
