Senior React Native Engineer

We’re looking for a Senior React Native engineer (7+ years) who’s solved real mobile platform challenges in production.

At Washmen, our customer app isn’t just another e-commerce interface—it’s a high-volume, multi-service platform processing thousands of daily orders with complex orchestration requirements. We need someone who’s already debugged production memory issues with native profilers, built custom bridges when off-the-shelf solutions failed, and made architectural decisions that scaled.

What we’re NOT looking for: Junior developers eager to learn React Native, or web developers transitioning to mobile.

What we ARE looking for: Engineers who’ve shipped apps with published App Store/Play Store experience, can immediately contribute to discussions around performance optimization, native module development, and mobile-specific constraints.

If you’ve led mobile architecture decisions in production environments and have battle scars from React Native at scale—let’s talk. 

Job Description:Responsibilities

• Integrate third-party native SDKs and handle OS updates across both platforms.
• Manage API integration (REST/GraphQL) and state management using React Query, with focus on caching and error handling.
• Translate designs into pixel-perfect UIs that work seamlessly on both platforms.
• Write testable code with unit, integration, and E2E tests (Jest, Appium).Mentor teammates through code reviews and pair programming.

Required Skills

• Solid iOS (Swift/Objective-C) and Android (Kotlin/Java) fundamentals

• Deep understanding of React Native architecture (New Architecture, JSI, Turbo Modules)
• Strong debugging skills with native profilers and crash analysis tools

React Native:

• Expert-level React Native development
• TypeScript, React Query, and modern state management
• Performance optimization and memory management
