Our mission is to build AI-first ventures that solve real-world problems — collaborating with entrepreneurs, engineers, and domain experts to create new businesses from the ground up. The Role We're looking for a contract React Native Developer to own the front-end of a new AI-powered B2B SaaS product currently in active development. This is a 3-month full-time contract with potential for extension based on project success. You'll be embedded in a small founding team, working closely with back-end engineers and an AI/ML lead. This isn't a feature-factory role — you'll have real influence over the UX, component architecture, and mobile experience from the ground up. We expect you to use AI tools aggressively in your own workflow — Cursor, Claude, whatever ships faster. That said, you own every line that goes to production: code should be clean, readable, and something your teammates can maintain without you."

Requirements

Deep, hands-on experience with React Native and Expo — you've shipped Expo-managed workflow apps to the App Store and Google Play
Strong command of TypeScript, React hooks, and state management (Zustand, Jotai, or similar)
You've built production UIs that consume LLM APIs — you understand streaming, token latency, error handling, and how to design interactions that don't fall apart when the AI is slow or wrong
Comfort working across the stack — you can read Supabase queries, understand API contracts, and debug end-to-end without hand-holding
AI-accelerated workflow — you actively use tools like Cursor or GitHub Copilot and can demonstrate meaningfully faster output because of it
A portfolio of real shipped products, not just side projects

Nice To Haves

Experience with PostHog for product analytics and feature flags
Founder or early-stage startup experience — you know what it means to make decisions with incomplete information and move fast
Familiarity with Supabase real-time subscriptions or Row-Level Security (RLS)
Eye for UX detail — you've pushed back on designs because you knew the implementation would hurt the user

Responsibilities

Build and own the React Native (Expo) front-end across iOS and Android from early-stage through pilot launch
Implement AI-driven conversational UI flows, onboarding experiences, and data-rich dashboards
Integrate with a Node.js/Supabase back-end via REST and real-time subscriptions
Collaborate with design to translate Figma prototypes into polished, performant mobile screens
Instrument product analytics and contribute to a culture of fast, data-informed iteration
Participate in lightweight code review and maintain clean, well-structured component libraries

Benefits

No-cost employee premiums for you and your eligible dependents for competitive medical, dental, vision and prescription benefits.
Auto enrollment with immediate vesting of competitive company matching contributions in a 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan with several investment options.
Generous Paid Time Off program that includes company holidays and a combined bank of paid sick and vacation time.
Performance based Short-Term Incentives (varies by role).
Access to confidential mental health resources to help you and your loved ones improve your quality of life. Personal fitness goal incentives.
Family orientated benefits such as paid parental leave and support for families raising children with learning, social, behavioral challenges, or developmental disabilities.
Group Rate Life and Disability Insurance.
Eligible for the relevant benefit programs offered through our partner agencies.
